azphat12 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 I need some help with what sub or subs to buy for my next install... I will have around 3 cubes to work with. 1200 watts I currently have 2 12" JL W3's and they are ok in a 3.5 box but I feel the DC will outperform them. I wanted to get some space back in my trunk....and 3.5 is just a bit to large for my liking. Figure max of 3 cubes would give me just a little back. Lastly I listen to lower bass music such as Dj Magic Mike / Young Jeezy / Bass Mekanik etc etc So here is the question... 2 10's 1 12 I was thinking with 1200 watts (Rockford Power series) that I can do a 12" DC lvl 4. But then I thought maybe 2 10's? Also, they are going into a 2008 Civic SI coupe. This will be a daily driver. I currently have the big 3 done with KnuKonceptz 1/0 full copper wiring. 1/0 also going to a distro, then 4gauge to the amps. Optima Yellow top in stock location. Alpine CDA9997 in dash. What do you guys recommend? I really want a good balance of feeling the music and it getting loud. I would at least like to beat out the subs I have now.... I have done some google searches, youtube, and even emailed DC. They even recommened maybe a 15, but I do not think I have the clearance for that. Really looking for ideas here.....and even maybe someone with a car similar and what they did. And keep the videos coming DC!! The Thorhammer videos are killer!

ilovebass808 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 i have almost the exact setup as you, but i have a xs d3400 as a rear batt. anyway i have a 12' dc level 4 on a dc 1.2k with the box tuned to 34 hz and i frickin love it! i hit a 141.0 db if i remember correctly, so i would recommend just going with a 12' level 4 with a well built box heres a pic if you dont believe me Quote Check out my build! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/129983-99-chevy-s10-build-log/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or would 1 12 with higher power be better.... That is my question really... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
