You would be better off with two Infinite 8's!

That would slap your Scoops!

Definitely a smart choice if you have the cash.

For this application, You also should consider 2x Crest 9001s, if you have the power supply available.

I would class the 3kW per channel at 2ohms as conservative.

not out yet, but the voids will undoubtedly be cheaper. More power by the looks of it too. the 12000i is coming into the US at nearly $7k, which puts it at £3500 ish, more than twice what the voids cost.

Go with the infinites. I can personally vouch for them pushing scoops. So can my eardrums.
