I am getting 2 of the Soundstream PCA2000 amps rated at 2000x1 @ 1 ohm... I am looking to hook each amp up to one sub. What are the best 12" subs out there that will give the best SQ/and decent SPL in either sealed box or ported for a DAILY DRIVER... I AM CONSIDERING THE FOLLOWING I will not go with the JLW7s they are too expensive...These will be going in the trunk of a saturn.. I like rolling bass that is powerful enough to move the seats and knock off the rearview.

ORION H2S
CV STROKERS
KICKER L7S
KICKER SOLO X
MTX 9500

Thanks

I am looking to run 2 12" subs that would work well on the 2 Soundstream 2000PCA amps that are rated at 2000x1 @ 1 ohm mono... You telling me that kind of power wouldn't work for the orion H2s? I am looking for some real strong bass but also has to have fairly decent SQ as well.. I don't know how 2 Kicker L7s would sound but I know total power for those 2 are only 1500 rms... Would it sound good in a trunk of a saturn?

Thanks

wat i suggest is a havoc from ascendant audio

they are rated 1500 rms but with 2000 they will make some noise and they will handle witout a problem,

and first of all u'll need a new alternator,

or a digital designs 9500

if u can fit 4 12's i suggest 4 sounds splinter rl-p u will pund the sh!t aout of your car in a good install

or 2 stereo integrity magnum

Will do new alternator but I don't want to do 4 12s since I want to keep back seat. The orion h2s or vegas wont work for daily use? Never heard of the subs you just mentioned.

2 12" kicker cvx
2 alpine type x
1 12" treo ssx
2 treo tsx


on the ssx it's rated at 2000w rms but it can take more. i'm not sure how it would run off of 2000 but i'm sure that B will chime in on it.
