[QUOTE="Sportster, post: 26838, member: 542801"] In my last car,I had 2 10" Kickers. They weren't bad,but I'm concerned with the speakers being in a box in the trunk as opposed to mounted in the rear deck,where they were in the other car. Not confident I'd get the same SPL through the back seat as I did the deck. I wasn't seriously thinking 15's,so I don't know why I put that in there. Was thinking more towards 12's,but I guess in the right enclosure and w/the right power it would probably suffice with 10's. I'm also concerned with space. That's the thinking behind a 12" as opposed to 2 10"s. My biggest sound concerns would be the speaker flopping around and coloring the music. I need a sub that won't flop and has good motion for good dynamics. You know how it is....you go to a stereo shop,and some kid that works there says 'Lemme show you these mofo's' and proceeds to make the subs flop and slap and makes them sound like wet dogs flopping around in a puddle, with the surrounds doing all they can to prevent it to no avail. Yea,really makes me wanna buy those!
