I have made up my mind on the subs, do you think with my amp will one t2 be good for it or should I do two of them?

dude, two amps to that one T2 would pound the hell out of it...however, I wouldn't suggest it because you would have to set each amp up to each voice coil seperately and tune them perfectly... if you want to get the T2, get the dual 2 ohm T2 (T212D2), that way you can wire that down to one ohm (your amp is 1 ohm stable!),that will give you ~ 1500-1600 watts RMS to your sub, but as long as its tuned correctly, you'll be fine.

Keep in mind, Rockford underates their amps and subs... the T2 states 1000 watts RMS, but its probably good up to about 1300-1400 watts RMS easily!

Likewise, the T1001bd you have states 1000watts @ 1ohm, but its actually doing anywhere from 1500 - 1700 watts RMS , and it will show this on your amp's birthsheet. DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYONE ELSE ON THIS FORUM if they tell you otherwise, very few folks here know Rockford like I do! (Except maybe Applebonker)

And I don't say that to be an a$$, its just that folks may respond with good intentions, but may not be very well versed with Rockford Fosgate equipment!

Jeff can do pretty much anything you want.. and yes, one T2 at 1 ohms with your amp will POUND!!! I'm only running my T2 at 2 ohms, soI'm only getting ~ 1050 watts to it... it still pounds, but could be louder! It def wants more power than the 1050 I'm giving it!
