[QUOTE="HoneyBadgerRy, post: 8627678, member: 667692"] The fronts are getting 320 RMS each door, so to balance that I think I'm going to need some surface area. IIRC its actually pretty easy to put two 6.5's in the back of the NA/NB, but on the NC its 100% custom either way, so there really are only 3 options I see that make sense as far as subwoofers behind the seats in the rear console area. [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=1"]#1[/URL] is a full custom two 8" sub boxes, [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=2"]#2[/URL] is a single custom 8" sub box, and [URL="http:////forums/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=3"]#3[/URL] is stuffing prebuild subwoofer packages (be it a low profile subwoofer with a sealed box, or the pre amplified subwoofer) into each of the rear cubbies. To make a decision on how much subwoofer I need I'm really going to have to listen to the system with the zapco and type X's installed. It should would be cheap and easy to get two powered subwoofers, but I see myself stuffing two 8"s into my car in the future. Is there a rule of thumb like if you spend X amount of dollars on your mids and highs spend X on your sub and amp? Those two JL's and the Zapco come up to about what I spent on everything else combined, and I would have to buy another amp wire kit, big three, and possibly need to get my alt rewound, I still need to get a stat for how many amps the stock system uses, then do that math on if my 120 amp alt can hold up to the test.
