[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1661011, member: 555320"] That's hogwash bullhonky. Any size subwoofer will work for you...8" through 18". However, the [I]most important[/I] thing you should do to really obtain the best performance in that "kickdrum" area is upgrade your front interior speakers. The majority of the impact, snap and punch of the kickdrum is located more in the midbass area than in the subbass region. Your midbass speakers will carry most of the impact and punch of the kickdrum, the subwoofer plays more of a "fill-in" role. With that said....what are your present interior speakers? A great sub with inadequate midbass speakers will result in generally poor "kickdrum" performance. [/QUOTE]
