[QUOTE="Cherokee18, post: 8622195, member: 674493"] Hello, I am looking for some expert advise on the car audio setup I plan to do in the near future. First I would like to give a quick history. This will be my second time having a sub woofer setup in one of my vehicles. The first time around I was running 2 12" Alpine type R's with around 500-600 watts RMS going to each sub. The bass was incredible, I wouldn't ask for more. However my main complaint was that the ONLY music that sounded good was Rap/Hip hop. I like to listen to a wide variety of music, including heavy metal with double bass. I was told that going down to a 10" subwoofer would help with that??
