hahahah - sounds to me like you have no clue about the Immortal...its one of Audiobahns sad attempts at a "loud" sub and as such sounds like big a$$...

I'm hoping your joking about Legacy right? ;) It is serious entry level stuff that typically makes 50% of rated power and fails 80% of the time.

If you want REAL power, consider US Amps :) Yes, I'm jaded, but what can I say...when you sell the best, its hard to like the rest ;) The Merlin MD2D would PUNISH that Immortal .....

1) what size is it? 12" 15"?
2) have you spent the $ on a box for it? it needs a box thats at least 1" thick MDF. it looks like it only uses a ported box design, which will cost an arm and a leg to have built ($500 +)
3) legacy is junk. audiobahn is crap, but youll have a hard time finding an amp powerful enough to move that thing for under $1k.

keep in mind that its a 2 ohm subwoofer. most of audiobahn amps put out the power youd need at 1 ohm (and thats if you believe them).

orion HCCA-D5000
1600 watts @ 2 ohms $859

Sound Stream PCA3500D
2400 watts @ 2 ohms $649 at carmedia1.com
