[QUOTE="pcmrsage, post: 8833589, member: 688434"] I am new to car audio and haven't been trying to budget and plan out my first system for my BMW 3 series (hifi option 676). My goal with this system is to get good sq at pretty high volumes primarily for rock and metal, however I also listen to a lot of rap, trap, and drum n bass. Accuracy and responsiveness are my main focuses, but I would still like to turn up the bass for some songs. I already purchased a form fit box for my trunk off eBay, [URL='https://www.ebay.com/itm/263192593212?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5335951755&toolid=20001&mkevt=1']link[/URL]. She holds 2 12s. Originally I was planning on 2 dc audio lvl3s. I was wondering if this was a little overkill. Most I've actually heard was 2 300w 12s with a 500w amp. In the future I will certainly be upgrading the front and rear component systems and underwear midbass woofers, so the subs will only have to play the low lows. [/QUOTE]
