I just got an audiobahn AW1208T subwoofer , just one. Anyone have any tips on what kind of box to use, how to wire it, and what kind of amp ? Someone on here already suggested i use the jbl amp but i forgot what model. here are some specs on the sub. 1500 watts rms , 20hz to 500hz, 280oz double stacked magnet, PHAT 2” Multi-layer Foam Surround, Stamped and Balanced Aluminum Cone, Dual 2 Ohm Voice Coil,
1 or 4 Ohm Operation ,6mm Cast Basket, Multi-connect Lug Lock Terminals. Thanks alot.

How to wire it depends on the specs of your amp. You can find box parameters on Audiobahn's website: Audiobahninc.com under Tech Support

Although I don't usually reccomend Hifonics, with that sub id find a nice cheap 1 ohm stable hifonics to run it. Choose the amp based on the power handling of your sub. With audiobahn, I would send it less than its rated power handling.
