[QUOTE="BumpinTypeR, post: 5632887, member: 607000"] Hey guys, Right now i have a single 12" DVC 4ohm type r wired at 2ohms to an alpine mrp-m500 amp. The type r is in a custom ported box that is 2.15 cubic feet after displacements and tuned to 37hz fb. It is in an SUV so it is loud enough for me when i play some hard hittin bass songs like da blow by lil jon. Anyways...Im hopefully gonna be getting a car sometime in the future, probably like a honda civic ex. I figured that since i will be driving a car, and the sub is going to be going in a trunk instead of just being in an open area of an suv, that the single type-r wouldnt be loud enough. So i was thinking of getting an 18" FI SSD when i do get my car. I would probably only add the copper coil, but maybe the bp power. It would go in a custom ported box. Would that sub be alot louder than my type-r? And what would be a good amp to power that sub? I was thinking a nine.1 but that would be too much power. Cause i dont really want to have to put a ho alternator in my car, but i could do the big 3 and i heard that anywhere at or above 1000rms, i would need a new alternator. So would that sub choice be the best bet? And what amp companies are somewhat cheap but good quality? I listen to mostly rap/hip hop and my budget would probably be around 500 just for a sub/amp. I could MAYBE go up to 600, but would like to stay around 500. Thanks alot guys [/QUOTE]
