mono at 2 ohms i think that amp puts out 700-800W RMS. Do you think that'll be enough?

somwhere between 100 and 150. there are about a billion different factors in guestimating an SPL reading.

i was guessin at least 140-150. I was at mid 140s with that amp and my two 15" cerwin vegas in a bandpass box. If it's anything less than 135dB i'll cry. ;(

prolly about a 145 or so... why not get ahold of a jl 1000/1 or do something like 2 jl 500/1's (what i started to do) but went with 2 12 w3's... if you need a 500/1 i got one for sale
what kind of box? faced where? vented? good luck and don't go deaf like me
