Well if you get one 12'' its plenty of boom for your car vs. 2 10s. You keep more trunk space if thats an issue. If not the 2 10s are plenty or power. DYNOMAT!!!

... I recommend the ALPINE PDX amp ...

well, the reason why i want two, is that im going to have each sub facing down (magnet up) on each rear corner of my trunk by the tail lamp. Im going for the "show" look... i will look up pics to give you the general idea. thanks for the suggestion on the amp

How much do you want to spend on the amp? And I honestly think 1 will be more than enough especially if you have a good amp. 2 might be over kill.

well, Im not baller or anything, but I want a good decent amp that would hold enough juice for my two 10's or possibly just one 12 type R from Gr8One. And a reputable brand for extra brownie points.
