    The Q3000 should be plenty, but i don't think you really NEED more than 1 amp on the brahmas. 3kw of power will make it nearly impossible for you to find a front stage to keep up unless you go with a set of horns. But i guess if you're one of those guys that's not really into actually hearing the music then two amps is the way to go! :D

    I think it is relatively safe to assume that the sound quality between the drivers will be consistent with one another considering the engineer by the subwoofer.

    Look at the W7, look at the Elan, look at the Seismic---

    No. I disagree. Cort brings up a good point in his post you obviously didn't read. Cort and I have discussed it before, the 13 and 10W7s are more impressive than the 12W7s. I don't know why, but I was never overly impressed with the 12W7. The 13W7 is awe inspiring, and the 10W7 is a little badass. But the 12... Eh, I've heard better.

    Z777Ds or the new Cadence line the ZRS-8 (1500WRMS) ZRS-9 (2000) ZRS-10 (2500) watt class Ds are options. They are strappable (up to 5000 watts at 2 ohms!!!) and are the A7s replacement. When Cadence releases the new 2 or 4 Ch to match these bad boys, I am upgrading my amps ;) . These are hot amps, really sexy.

    We will have to agree to disagree. I thought the 10, 12, and 13 were equally amazing. The 13 just gets louder. The 12W7 is definitely one of the best 12's on the market for loud, great sounding low end re-inforcement.
