I thought you said you got the 81000d --

4 ga is perfect for that 6500d --

Yup-- you'll be able to run about 350w rms to your mids and hi's and the 500w for your sub amp all on the 4ga cable--

That's really better balanced anyway-- 1000w is nuts-- I only use about 450w max from my 1500d -- plenty to get loud and still be clean--

These guys build woofers for several high end lines -- Eclipse titanium subs are built entirely by TC -- the aluminum subs are too--

The DB's would be awesome- but with the power you have -- a single DVC TC1000 Would be a better bet-- I promise it would be loud enough--

Naah-- The sound of a single TC-1000 or even better a TC-2000 with that amps power will set off the effect -- People will be like -- "That's just one 12?? Holy Crap!" --

The TC 1000 or 2000 is a prettier sub too -- But I'd go for the 2000 and mount it magnet facing out-- That my friend is show quality--

You'll be overpowered by two 12's and want to downgrade-- while a single sub like the 2000 will pound your head off but maintain that magic sq level only a single sub can attain--

Just something to think about-- But from a power standpoint, you'd really want a little more power to run a pair of those DB500's to their full potential-- Another reason I was suggesting a single sub--

Your amp will realistically make close to 700w with a great battery, cap, and alternator-- perfect for one serious subwoofer--

These look to be mean subs-- 22mm xmax -- pretty decent--
How cheap can you get them?
If cheaper than a TC-2000 ($275 shipped) -- I'd build a ported box for one and a sealed for the other -- buy them in the dual 4 ohm (dvc) model and you'd have a perfect match for your amp-- a single sub--

The ported sub would absolutely pound your vehicle apart-- (yep even a 12) and the sealed would be a backup as well as sound great in the right size enclousre-- I'd say go for it-- But the TC woofer will still have an edge-- The true aluminum cone will play a bit tighter and get a bit louder overall--

A single sub is the way to go with that amp I'm tellin ya-- You will not be let down with the spl of 1 12" sub if you get the right one--

Spec Sheet--

Too bad you don't have a 4ohm amp-- This is what you need -- A TC OEM sub offered for a very limited time -- I believe they are overstock from a build for a client on an obviously very powerful subwoofer of some sort-- $195 shipped-- you won't find a meaner sub for the money in the history of the world x 3

I found this sucker in the B-Stock list on TC's site-- probably smudged paint or something-- nothing to do with the mechanical operation of the sub-- http://www.tcsounds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=961

For $300 -- this sub is a deal I wouldn't pass up-- They usually go for $500 each!

They'll provide you with pics or you can call them and ask why it's B-Stock and if they'll cover it under warranty--

You can't beat that-- The 8500's are no doubt a tough sub--
I can't see any reason not to get them if you can do em 5 finger style.
