hey everyone i went into my local car audio store yesterday and i was looking at subs and my original plan was to get 2 10 inch subs for my 2004 ford focuz hatchback but when i told the ower what kind of car i had he said i should get 1 12 because it will sound better but i dont get why he said that and i also need help with picking subs so could you guys recommend some to me please thanks everyone

What kind of subs and how much? Shops usually overprice their stuff.

Depending on subs and power 2 10 gonna sound louder. But you can fit 2 12 also. Again depending on subs and power you going to feed them.

He is prob rt, the reason is that the 1 - 12" will have proper space, where as the 2 - 10's may be a little more cramped. Usually if that is the case, then one does do better than two. Just my opinion, Idk?

And I would consider DC audio. A single Level 3 or Level 4 12 should do the job just fine!

he said for the 1 12 it was a kicker compvrand a kenwood 1000 watt amp but i dont get how it would sound better then 2 10s but the 1 12 was cheaper
