Bronze Member Username: Vivi2000Post Number: 22 Registered: Aug-07 | My friend is upgrading his system and wants 2 12's for his car. His budget is $150 max for both subs. He doesn't listen to rap or hip hop at all. He already has an enclosure for his current 12's and its a sealed one. Any reccomendations? His current amp can do 120w x2channels at 4 ohms. |

Bronze Member Username: Vivi2000Post Number: 23 Registered: Aug-07 | Ok so we are looking at subs online, right now i have picked out these 2 http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=17190 http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=17404 Would those be good to run on his system? Also which one is better? |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois United States Post Number: 1285 Registered: May-07 | If I personally had $150 to spend on subs, I would just buy 1 good one, instead of buying 2 so-so subs. Just my opinion though. What amp is it anyways? |

Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 5919 Registered: Feb-06 | x2 on just getting a single sub with that budget. would you happen to know what the amp does bridged? or maybe model #? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Vivi2000Post Number: 24 Registered: Aug-07 | I believe that the amp does 240w rms bridged at 4 ohms. Also if you think that one sub would be better do you have any reccomendations? He would need to get a new box also if he just gets 1. |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois United States Post Number: 1287 Registered: May-07 | If the amp does 240w bridged at 4 ohms, then it most likely does 120w x2 at 2 ohms. Really need to know what amp it is, since some brands only subs in 1 voice coil configuration. |
