Looking to replace my 6.5 inch 2 ohm subwoofers. Any suggestions?

These are for my Camaro's side panels.

This is all I was able to find.

Bazooka

Has some dual voice that can be wired to 2 ohms for $49.99 each

I've never bought 6.5 subs before, but $99.98 for two seems a bit steep.

I don't need a high end subs, just something that is above stock.

What suggestions do you guys have?

Thanks,

Joel

Thanks for the suggestion, but I actually need 6.5 inch subs for my side panels. My apologies for if I didn't provide enough details. Just in case, I went ahead and added some.

Thanks for the suggestion. But, unfortunately, it's a 4 ohm sub.

well, if you want to dish out, i think the bad azz 6.5 jl has is 2 ohm, but not sure..... i take it you already have an amp that you want to push @ 2 ohms?

Yeah, I just got my amp is wired @ 2 ohms, but even the stock monsoon amp is wired at 2 ohms.

So far I have found these subs that are or can become 2 ohm subs.

The Audiopipe subs are only 6" versus the Bazooka and Kicker which are 6.5" each. Other than fitment issues, will this cause me a problem?

Also, are the Kicker or Bazooka that much better than the Audiopipes?

I'm not looking to go all out, I just want a better than stock sound.

Any other subs that you guys can recommend?

Thanks,

Joel

Any of these speakers are going to ultimately be more influenced by the enclosure than the actual brand. If it were me, I'd buy the one with the best build quality and actual power handling, then spend money on beefing up the enclosure around them. Hell, even deadening/stiffening the area around the actual stock speakers will make an improvement.
