Bronze Member Username: SwansondrIA USA Post Number: 14 Registered: Apr-07 | I have a small four door car. I want a sub and an amp. I dont know how many watts they should be to get some good kick. I want it to be really loud, but I also don't want it to blow me out of my seat. Anyone have suggestions? Don't think about price, just how many watts. PS I was thinking either 1 or 2 12 inch subs max (I would like to wire it a 2 ohms) |

Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 4377 Registered: Feb-06 | i'd check the stock alt. i've heard of 800wrms killing a stock alt. and why not upgrade? you say don't think of budget when looking at subs so you must have plenty of money to spend. |

If you don't wanna be blown out of your seat, anywhere from 500-800 watts should be good. Tc-1000 comes to mind at first. Is it possible to do 1 15" sub? |
