Ahhh... So you meant "2 x 12" 400rms kicker subs with a 950rms kicker amp"

yeh something like that... im used to saying 800rms from when they were in the twin sub box and were 2ohm... now 4ohm and 400rms each...
Still... i needed the parcels to bring the sound stage back becoz the head unit isnt completely powerful enough to support the doors... so i might even get a small 250rms kicker amp to power the doors aswell... make it even more effing loud though! lol

I'd like a 3rd sub too but I think it'd be too much effort.

I reckon it'd sound alright
