Brother wants to upgrade...

YT Bronze Member Username: Spankinurwoofers GR, MI US Post Number: 58 Registered: Nov-07	Posted on Sunday, December 09, 2007 - 03:35 GMT Ok, my brother has 2 12" JBL P1224's (dual 4 ohm, 'plus one') subs, with a Hifonics Brutus BXi2006D (2000 wrms...is it really 2000 RMS?) amp. Custom slot ported box in his '95 Ranger. He wants to upgrade it, but doesn't know whether he should get new subs or a better amp(???). Also, what are some opinions on this setup? He got the subs and amp for $250 from his friend.
