Which Subs to get
i say do a higher wattage bass tube...not to much weight and it wont rattle your wing off, and if you get something like w7s, your back speakers arent gonna last very long...sealed trunk + lots off air bein pushed around = air leaving in weakest spot, hence back speakers gone...

what kind of music do u listen to? If you lean toward rap I would recommend the 12 or 13 for those deep lows. Rock then an 8 or 10 will give u the nice punchy bass your looking for. pm or reply with questions.
Need help here. What sub to get with this setup?
Alpine CDA-9887
JL Audio 250/1
Audio Integrations 12" sub enclosure (1.2 cubic foot)
I am thinking of the JL 12W3V2, 12W3V3, or even the 12W6. I am not looking for a super loud system, just something that is nice and deep at comfortable volume levels. Also, the lighter the better.....

+1 to that. My Diamond Audio D6 sounds louder then many 2 sub combo's. Just make sure to feed the woofer with the proper power and in the proper box and you'll love it. I'd say do 1 12" W7
Mostly rock and heavier stuff. I am leaning towards the 12w3v3.

ive heard with stereos, get what works together so if i dont get type Rs then im getting Xs, and i have type R speakers in my ranger and there nice. but ill take your word, i never had type r subs, so i think ill go with 2 type X 12s, cause i listen to rap and hip hop, or else id get 10s, and il have 2 pdx-1.1000s pushing them, hahaha ill rattle stuff apart, so i might just get one 12, what does anyone think, 1 or 2 Xs
i just put a 8"w6 in my friends car and it hits as hard as my 2 infiniti 12s...w7s are just rediculous you gotta watch rattling your body panels apart with those i always see where the back pilar meets the roof stretched to hell from cars with w7s...but in the end they sound amazing

What would anyone recommend to someone who doesn't listen to rap, but hardcore/metal? I just want the kickdrum to punch me in the *****. I don't really need people outside of the car to hear it, but if they do whatever. I had a JL in a powerwedge box in my 3000GT (sold), but that was installed in 2000. I can't remember what the specs on it were. Thanks for any info.
