Hey there,

I'm new to this message forum and I would be interested to see what you think of my question. My question is: If you had plenty of space in your vehicle and didnt have really have to worry about haveing multiple subwoofers would you A: get two mid powered (300 - 450 rms) subs or B: Four low powered (100 - 250rms) subwoofers? I already know what I would do but I would like to see what you would want to do and why. Thanks

In theory, every time you double your cone space (surface area) you gain 3 dB. Because of this I think your question is rather dumb. You make no reference to size or amplifier power either. Both of which would change the equation.
