[QUOTE="KoolDrew, post: 3718934, member: 584360"] Any reason to stay away from the Crunch amps? I've been reading good things about them and they are decently priced, but somebody else on another forum said to lose the Crunch amp as well. I did take a look at Sundown Audio amps. Any suggestion on a a particular model? I just don't want to spend a ton of money, but ~$500 for an amp is reasonable I guess. I'd like to go cheaper, but I don't really want to sacrifice my system just because I wanted to go cheaper. Something that will definitely give the subs enough to work to their full potential. Also, the more I read and the more I get suggestions from other people, I think I might go with two 10" BL's rather than the Q's. One thing that just caught my eye with the Q is the lower frequency response. I like loud, but I'm just afraid I'm not gonna like the sound quality. I want something really loud inside and outside the car with a lot of air pressure and "punching" but at the same with with good sound quality since im putting a DVD navigation system in and really like to enjoy my music. Then again, my idea of good sound quality could be completely different from somebody else's. Since this is my first real system, I probably have no idea what good sound quality sounds like, so I think I'll be happy with the BL. What do you guys think? You think 2 10" BL's is my best option? Would those two be better than 1 12"? As for the component speakers, I already have the Sony Xplodes.

I guess I could build the box in the trunk, but since it's my first real system I think I'd be better off not doing that. Which is why I figure I can either go with 1 12" or two 10's.
