2 12" Alpine Type R's I dont know which is better 2 or 4ohms?
2 12" Kicker CVX's
2 12" PIONEER PREMIER TS-W3004SPL
Car Audio HELP! Does this sound right?? Speaker/Amp hookup:?

Answers:
Alpine Type X have rms 1000 watts each. Go to Big Buy City they have them for $190.
What is the thread size for a guitar/amp knob?
out of those 3 i would go with the pioneer. and as for not knowing whats better 2 or 4 ohms look at your amp ratings. the pioneer is dual 4ohm so u can wire them down to 1ohm like thishttp://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/wo...
that will push 1600watts between the 2 or 800 to each sub
edit
to javin u call them paperweights but pioneer has the loudest 12 in the world right now. i dont like their low end stuff but their high end is great.
out of the 3 the pioneers have the highest rms power(1000 watts ),highest sensitivity (89 db),and the lowest frequency (18 hz) so that is what i would go with.if your going to run it at 1 ohm then get the dual 4 and if your going to run it at 2 ohms then get the dual 2

75% of all world SPL records were won with Kicker Products.I wouldn't waste my money on those heavy paperweights (Pioneers).
What kind of Amps & Speakers? Xplod?
When it comes to output, excursion and cone surface area play the role. These are the 'determining' factors.

Help for powerful head unit. 1000w +?

Where can I find a face plate only for a car stereo?
honestly, Pioneer is so vague about the specs on the premier, I speculate it wouldn't stack up that well to top shelf woofers. For the amount of money you are spending you could buy a single woofer that would keep up or beat out the pairs you are looking at.How many watts do i need to power a subwoofer with 87 db of sesitivity?
of the three I would choose the Alpines.
Just hooked up JL 500/1 to 12w6v2... somethings wrong?
You could also consider:
a single IDMAX
an Eclipse aluminum (similar price if u buy on ebay)
2 ID v3's (depending on the box can get louder than the alpines)
a pair of Kappa Perfect's (also slightly louder than the alpines)
a single Adire Audio Brahma or Tumult (total skull crushers and sound good doing it)
What is your favorite song by the red hot chili peppers?
I know I've beaten this horse, but a pair of lanzar Opti 12's in a larger than recommended vented box. (they are an awesome value if you rate them performance / $). The Heritage die cast 12 is basically the same sub in disguise. It has a fiberglass cone vs carbon or aluminum like the opti, but sounds about the same.
Can't turn off demo mode on my Kenwood KDC-4037.?
Ideally to get the max out of your amp (1 ohm) you want 2 subs with 4 ohm dvc's or you want 1 sub with 2 ohm dvc's. Either way you will get 1600 w from your amp. all would be wired in parallel.
