[QUOTE="Spooklorky, post: 8717770, member: 677958"] The idea of different kinds of subs was just a random thought because maybe you could use some sort of a crossover but now I see that would be just as hard as mixing sub sizes and I’m not a sound engineer that can tune that stuff that crazily. I guess I’ll cross that off the list of ideas. As for what kind of power I want to run its kind of up in the air for now. I get a bit nervous when people mention ported boxes because that makes me think sloppy bass. Maybe I need to do more research about ported but what people seem to be telling me is that I can get just some more powerful subs and they will still be punchy but also play low in a ported box? I think getting lower would be the main concern right now as my subs are decently punchy but lacking in the low areas. As far as space I have the trunk of my 2009 Toyota Corolla. I have lots of depth that can be filled up but not a ton more width. I think it can fit a 3 12” box but unsure for now it would probably be a close fit. The budget is not too crazy I don’t want to spend a fortune I’m thinking maybe 1500-2000 but I don’t need to spend it all. If I can spend less I definitely will. I just want the lower frequency’s to actually show up. [/QUOTE]
