best subs!
Trending Topics
I would say JL are your best bet. I'll be going with one 12" w6v2. Believe me that will be plenty for most people with a good amp. If you don't need a trunk at all go with two! If you aren't a bass addict you can get away with one 10". I would stick with the w6v2 or W7 series speakers. Their amps are very good as well, but I would stick with the slash series amps. These amps have better power supplies. Either the 250/1v2 or 500/1v2. I personally will be going with the 500. Common misconception about power and subs, less wattage and poor quality amps are typically what kill subs. I used to sell this stuff and only once did I ever see a sub blown because it was put on an amp that was too big. Distortion is the killer and when you don't have enough power people typically try turning the gain up on the amp which at a point causes the amp to clip. Either one of those two amps will do a good job on these woofers. If you are going to go with two subs make sure you talk to someone about the ohm load on the amp. Two 2 ohm subs in parallel = 1 ohm = fried amp and possibly the subs if the amp doesn't shut down first.
I am asking myself that question as well. I got 2 JL12W7 from my old car and trying to figuare how I am gonna get these baby in that trunk. From looking at the dimension requirements for the subs it looks like not even 1 is going to fit.
I am considering these though. Check it out guys.

2.5inches sub depth.
Thats a real space saver.

2 of those will easily fit, but it's definitely going to take up some trunk space, you could put 4 in there if you wanted............sealed enclosure calls for 1.3 cu ft and 1.75 for ported. I wouldn't go with the flat speakers. w6v2's have excellent sound and take a little bit smaller enclosure, that is why i recommended them above. I personally would just use one W7 12" if already had them and call it good.
