[QUOTE="Art Welter, post: 71817, member: 52"] Re: FREE SUB PLAN: Dual Lab12 (Front Loaded) by Welter Systems Spenser, I think the 12C is more oriented for car audio, where a single speaker with low impedance is more useful. The 500 watt Lab 12C is only 3.11 ohms (compared to 400 watt 4.29 ohms for the Lab 12) , so at the impedance minima a pair in series will be about 6.2 ohms. If you want a lot of power (between 1600-2000) series the pair and run the amp bridged mono. At 1.55 ohms for a pair in parallel, even some 2 ohm rated amps will cough with that load. The Lab motor is not very effective at getting rid of heat, my guess is very little (if anything) would be gained using the extra power the 12C can take, I'd just use Lab12 and parallel a pair of them on any amp that puts out more at 2 ohms than 4.
