[QUOTE="Betelgeuse, post: 8737672, member: 680503"] I'm in the process of upgrading the stereo in my Wrangler. I've got the Polk MM1 6.5" components fed off of a Taramps TS 400x4 bridged down to 2 channels. It sounds decent. Highs are pretty bright, and the midbass is lacking severely because I have the 6.5's mounted into some pretty small speaker pods. I have the amp and crossovers mounted under the dash below the steering column. It's pretty stealthy. I'm wanting to add a sub to the mix and plan to mount the amp for that under the dash as well. I have NVX VADM1 micro amp that does 500w @ 1ohm. I have room for a single 12" in a sealed box. I don't listen to much rap at all, mostly metal and rock. I like loud, but I would much rather have something not quite as loud, but able to keep up with fast double bass drums. I've looked at a couple subs that I liked, just looking for some feedback. * Image Dynamics IDQ12 (750w RMS) - Looks like it had very good reviews. My only hang up here is that it is 750w RMS, and I have 500w to work with. I'm wondering if I would be better of suited trying to find something that matches my amp a little better. * SSA Demon (550w RMS) - Seems ok, looks like it matches my amp better. * Sundown SD-4 (600w RMS) - I was looking at the E series from Sundown, but the SD-4 looks to be better suited for a sealed enclosure. I am really open to suggestions for a good 12 to match my amp. I like the IDQ, just not so sure how I feel about only giving it 500 watts. [/QUOTE]
