Alpine RS-W12D2 R-Series Shallow 12 inch Subwoofer Dual 2 Ohm: a 12-inch subwoofer rated 600 watts RMS, offered in 1 ohm, 2 ohm, 4 ohms or dual 2 ohm.
Published parameters: Xmax 3.25 mm. Those three numbers decide the box; the amplifier only decides how loud it gets.
The manufacturer recommends 0.7 cubic feet sealed. We cut enclosures to those figures; ask if you want this driver boxed.
Pair the amplifier against RMS, not peak, and wire the voice coils to an impedance the amp is stable at.
