[QUOTE="VWBobby, post: 7406254, member: 624844"] I'm not a big fan of center console enclosures. It seems like its hard to make a solid enclosure that doesn't make everything in your console/dash rattle itself apart. Not that having a lot of power in the back can't do the same thing, eventually. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] The other issue is cancellation and phasing. Having the subs in a center console can cause problems with the sound waves bouncing off or pressurizing your main speakers (for lack of better description). These are terms you would have to research to get a better understanding of. Having the subs in the back can give you quite a bit more room. More room = larger enclosure = more choice of subs. Cone area (total amount of cone square inches) is more important than the number of subs. You can have 1 18" sub and it will be larger than Two 12" subs put together (more cone area than the two 12's). If you want to save space, I recommend going with 1 good quality 15 or 18" sub, instead of running 2 twelves. [/QUOTE]
