I need help with subs

[DavePostle]

i just bought 2 12" phoenix gold XMAX subs in a custom mx-3 box off a friend. Can anyone give me there opinion on these subs and if that set up should be good for an mx3. Also would a Phoenix gold amp be the best bet? and how many watts should i go..i think they run the best at either 500 or 600 watts per sub but they can reach 1200 each without blowing... can anyone recommend anything<BR>go here for the specs on the subs... <A HREF="http://www.phoenixgold.com/xmax.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.phoenixgold.com/xmax.html</A>
