Setup for brothers gf's car.. saz 1000d

[boomzabit 10+ year member]

Im trying to figure out what would be best for my brothers GF, they dont know whole lot about audio so they are looking to see what i can come up with. I guess she is willing to spend $250 on an amp so i found an saz 1000d that fits the "budget". As far as subs either a 10, 2 10's or a single 12.

At first i just said well type r's are decent and can be had anywhere. But i came on caraudio to search and found a 12'' FI Q, i also found on CL a 12'' RE SE and a 10'' re sx.. what do you guys think?

BTW her vehicle is a dodge magnum.

What are your goals with this setup?

id go with the re se, assuming its the older version tripple stack.

if you wanna hit lows and be clear about it get an obsidian 12 or 15

I second the SE. Not only because I have experience with them, but because I have heard the FI. Oh and I had an RE SX. SX didnt sound all that great. More of an SPL Sub

Also Sundown still has some b-stock SA-10's for 140 shipped, and SA-12s for 150 shipped, might wanna check that out.

Id run with the AP 1300 for the budget amp and can be had with a warranty. Should be cheaper as well.

An obsidian sub is a good choice depending on how much space she wants to give up.

But again, how much bass? Is she looking for full out MY CARS FALLING APART OMG I BROKE A NAIL? Or THIS SYSTEM ROCKS MY BRA OFF IT SOUNDS SO SMOOTH HEHE

On a serious note, I would strongly suggest knowing this before picking a subwoofer. If you need help or enclosure advice, shoot me a pm.

Surreal makes a good point, and that should be answered before proceeding.

I "liked" your post because I agree with it. I believe that is the politically correct thing to do - Facebook taught me so.

Word. Your social media taught you correctly.

It will be focused more on SQ and she listens to anything as far as music but mainly rock.. Im guessing she wants a tighter punchy sound so im thinking sealed may be best?
