So I'm in the market to get another system. I've had 2 different 15s since summer and want to do 2 12s. I need help finding the best bang for my bucks. I'm able to build a box but don't want to spend over 300 for the subs total. It's going to be in the back of my Ford Fusion.

Whats the max dimensions of your space and what amp are you going to be using? So you have $300 total for two subs?

American Bass XFL 12 dual 4 ohm. I realize you said you only have $300 for subs, but maybe you can find the extra $40 to go for these. I personally bought 2 of them from newegg in the last 2 months and can tell you they are the current model with the 8ga direct leads. I also know that the box i have in the back of my wagon would fit in your trunk. its a box built to AB's 2-12 spl spec.

what amp do you have?

I have a precision power 2600 watt amp. The trunk is 15 or 16 Inches high I haven't measured it myself yet. Im thinking about be getting 2 Soundqubed hds subwoofers.

Poor you could go with 1 12 for the 300 that's a better quality sub in a proper box?

Two 12" subs is going to be a good bit more efficient than a single 12" is. If you have space for two, that would be my recommendation.

just keep in mind that amp is rated to do 1300wrms at 1 ohm. and i doubt it actually pushes that. so if you were to get the sounqubed or even the XFLs you'd be underpowering the subs. also, you can fit a pretty decent sized box in your trunk. my buddy has a '12 fusion and its surprisingly roomy back there, just watch out for that stupid hump.

i was planning on doing 2 of the hds212 because the rms is 600 and the amp will push right at 1200-1300 ish watts and I'd be good for the time being. The only thing I'm having problems with is getting a box short enough to fit under the hump in the trunk

yeah those would be a good choice then for your power.

as for the box, you'll have to go custom to get the volume you need in the space. are you going sealed or ported?
