5ch set up 2 or 4 subs?

Hey all

I am looking at doing a set up in my truck with a 5 ch amp and I am putting the subs in the back of the front seats just to do something different. I am wondering if it would be better to go with 2 or 4 subs. I am not looking for huge bass but I want something that is going to sound a look good too. I will make sure that the subs will be powered to what they need regardless of the number but I am not sure which way to go.

Anyone have any ideas?

The number and type of subs to choose would depends on the type and size of the enclosure, which is dependent on the space available.

Four 10's would be the better choice.
