One 12" L7 ported. Tune it to 33 hertz at 3.15 cubic feet. SWEEEET!!! Kaboom and tight!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

yeah she likes kicker. She had fosgate before and likes them too. Is a fosgate 1001bd ok for that sub? its a lil over 1100 watts rms.

ONE peerless XLS

went thru the same thing with my g/f. i got her 2 10w1's . they sound great without using alot of space . they even impressed me for 10 in. subs

yeah she is thinking 10's or 12's now. No 15 inch sub. I have a 1000 watt amp so im kinda looking at something that can take that. I forgot about jl audio. she was thinking rockford, kicker, eclipse Ti. Something thats gonna get loud but with little space taken in the trunk.

She has components. Eclipse 6 1/2" with the tweeters. I cant think of the model number but its the most expensive 6 1/2 components lol.

Don't get her the T2 unless she is an SPL head. Those are insanely loud speakers.

You have listed mostly SPL subs though... Does she want SPL???

I'm probably going to get my girl an RL-i 10 when she is ready.

does she really know how things work? if your gonna run massive power in her vehicle, make sure she knows how to properly use it. u never know she could get bass happy one day or just impressing her friends on girls night out and next thing you know, alt is crapping out.

just my assumption though considering shes having you pick out the goods.

but i would have to say 2 10" sealed. its plently enough imo and will sure sound great.

yeah she likes it loud but i wouldnt say extreamly loud like i do. She likes alot of bass and is pretty good about it. She knows whats too loud and if it sounds distorted and all that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif The only thing she hasn't really gotten down is how to change it to where she likes. When i drive her car i mes with all the setting and make it LOUD. but when she drives it with her girl friends they turn the treble down and the bass some. and then the bass knobs in the trunk of the car they dont touch or think they even know about lol. Then when we are together she will be like i dont know what they did to it can you fix it for me. But she don't turn it up dangerously loud where she might mess something up.

My electrical needs to be upgraded so everyone tells me. im gonna get to that soon.
