4 Memphis or 2 RE

my 16 yr old brother just got his 1st car and I am going to help him buy and install his 1st budget system. I have learned quite a few nice pieces of info from this site but Im no professional.. so my question is.. which should we get

4 12" Memphis PR subs 250rms ($300)

on a Memphis 1000 mono amp (friend has one $200)

or

2 15" RE SE subs 600ish rms ( I think) ($Group Buy)

on a Hifonics BX1205D mono 1200 rms ($200)

or

Open to suggestions $500 for amp/subs

going in a 1989 Buick LeSabre ($1000) from my aunt wit new motor)

Imma get him the same AMP kit that I have, and a new Pioneer cd/mp3 player ($130)

and I doubt we need any electrical upgrade for 1000 watts or so but It will get done if need be

 
The RE SE15s would be nice. The SEs are great subs that will play low notes with great authority off of little power. If you are looking for SPL at higher frequencies the RE SX would be better though.

 
They may not sound as good, but the PRs get really loud for the money...great for a really loud, lower budget setup....I ran the PRs, MClass, HPOs and the PRs did well...I shocked a lot of folks w/every Memphis setup but the REs are a higher class of subs (and it shows in the price)...

matrxxdude: well then the re sx 15 or 18 would do nicley.



thanks but Its gotta do this at about 1000 watts.. cuz we only have $200 for the amp
SPL Subs 1,2,or 4 and an amp that will bangem loud

The SX's are rated at 1000 watts RMS //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

One SX15 would be beautiful.
