Hey guys,

I am a huge n00b when it comes to car audio and my friend just gave me his old 2x12" subwoofer box and amp and I was wondering what the best 12" subs are for rap for $300.00 total? Thanks.

I think it says 550 watts max. Does this sound right?

The enclosure is WAY more important than the subs that go into it.

Max doesn't mean jack. Give us the model number of the amplifier and we can start to help you.

167 Watts RMS x 1 Channel @ 4 Ohms

247 Watts RMS x 1 Channel @ 2 Ohms

Ouch, I'd get a new amp.

JL 12w0s are probably your best bet as they are 125 rms and are very efficient woofers.

Not sure what that means.

Not sure what that means.

Can you get us pictures?

Another good option for a low power efficient woofer...

does it have a hole where air can flow out of the box? or just two holes for the subs?

Yes there are 2 holes on top of each other in between each woofer hole.
