I only ever had one at a time hooked up for daily driving, car alternator can't put out enough to power 2 at once.
But some friends and I put 2 cars trunk to trunk and we ran my other amp off his electrical system and we could hear beautiful loud bass from 2.5blocks away. This was both in a bandpass box still in the trunk, but open trunk.
But back to your topic, I like the MTX 8000 subs. 6000's are OK. Nothing great, but above par. The 4000's I think are on par or less. I've heard only one Infinity Reference 12" in a sealed box, guy only had like 150watts going to it... it was ok for some filler bass, but nothing that was really noticeable outside the car. It's what he wanted. I think if he put the RMS watts to it and tuned it properly it would have "bumped his whole car" so to say.
Personally I don't like JL's, Audiobahn, or image dynamics. I've heard a couple at a local get together once and didn't care for the sound of them at all. Could have very easily just been a poor setup, but I only heard them each once for about 10mins each.
