I have a 93 F150 single cab and wanna put a 12 behind the seat but i'm kinda clueless and was wondering how many watts RMS would be a good amount for 1 12 behind the seat in a truck?

Seriously though, you have to tell us what sub first, then we'll go from there.

I'm not sure on what sub yet, i just want something thats gonna sound nice. I love rap n hip hop music so i listen to alot of stuff with tons of bass.

1.20 jigga watts.

1.21 jigga watts would be just a little too much.

Well it's impossible to tell you what RMS you'll need without a sub.

Each vehicle will sound different so it's hard to say what will sound good in your truck. 600W may be loud in one vehicle with a certain setup and sound completely different in another.

Do you have a pricerange in mind for a sub?

I think he is looking more for "what sub should I get?"

 

[BIG.D 10+ year member]

What would you guys suggest on a sub? probably no more then $125

SPL = Sound Pressure Level

SQ = Sound Quality

SPL goes for loudness

SQ, pretty send explanatory

Mainly, do you want people to hear you a long ways away, or do you want to enjoy your songs?
