well i have about 160.00 dollars to buy a new sub or subs. i'm lookin to get 1 12 or 2 10's. i would like to get something with lots of boom factor to it. just to note i do not have an amp for the sub so i can basicaly get any thing with in that price range. cause i can buy the sub then i'll look at an amp when i get the money.

clarion, rockford, alpine, JL(arn't those expensive), and kenwood. those are the brands i'm lookin at. if any one can help it would be apreciated. cause i have no idea what makes a good sub.

Next issue will be buyign the ammp for the choosen sub.

just to note i have a 4 door chevy lumina car.

also what would sound better 1 12 or 2 10's. i cna get a better 12 for a 160, then 2 10's for 80 dollars.

 

How much power would you be putting to it?

If I were in the same boat I'd be looking at getting a single 12.

I had a single 12 in my car for nearly 2 years and it was able to do evertying I wanted it to.

Theoretically 2 10s will be louder but 2 under powered 10's will be equal or crappier than 1 properly powered 12

 

if your going with just 1 12 save up a bit mroe money to get a decent speaker. as 160 is pushing it for anything if you dont got an amp yet. jsut save the money untill youve got enough to buy evertyhing . no point in having a subwooer witting aroudn yoru house that wil only age and not having anything to power it.

ahh ok ya mabey i'll wait tell sound obbsesions has a decent deal on a set of subs and an amp. ya cause im not going to be able to get a amp for atleast a couple months. i was just thinking cause im going to cold lake and bonnyville for thier shows i could get a deal on a sub with the sales they might have.

 

I have a 12" kappa perfect that might work for you. You won't even have to spend the full 160 on it and it only needs about 350w.

 

Hey Lumina Guy... PM Me....I might have a killer deal for you.
Thanks

 

^ PM them

Single perfect 12 or type r 12 would be excellent and can both be bought within that price.

heck you might even get a pair of 12s for that much if the right deal comes along.. (2 12" type r's sold for 140 on this forum just a while back)

 

ya i got a pm from some one for a really good deal on some subs. but thx guys for the help.
