#1 it's a BAND pass box ... #2 What are the new subs RATED at  That would determine what amp to run... #3 Direction it depends on what frequency the box is set for and what type of music you listen too... Try it one way ,then turn it around to see what sounds best to you |

Well you answered most of the questions yourself
IF the subs are rated at 1200 watts each thenyou can run the 2000 watt amp
Then try it both directions forward and rear facing

Plexy-glass to the back = louder, more kick
Plexy-glass to the front = smoother
Make sure the port(s) can breathe.
Band pass boxes are sweet for High bass Metal.. ie: Korn, Linkin Park, Fear Factory, etc...

You can have ports. Ports are good sometimes,
If you went from your band pass box to a ported box ( that is close to specs for your subs) you would notice a huge difference in sound quality. Wont be as loud.. but loud doesn't mean quality.
