10" subs are good because they play a little deeper then a 12" sub, but a 12" sub plays a little louder than a 10" sub. If you put subs in your truck, I recommend putting 10" subs in a enclosure with sound filling. It makes the subs sound deeper.
The smaller the sub, the faster it can change frequencies.
distort all you want then?The only thing that will kill speakers is overpowering them, not underpowering them or distortion!
*Thinks of that hooptie-box Caprice Classic blasting it's way through the ghetto*-Boom, tick-tick-tick-tick, BOOM!If you have loud bass and can't hear the words, that's where tweeters come in. The tweeters give that nice, crisp, "CLAP" sound so you can actually hear the words while having the feel of the bass
Get a 1 ohm amp, regardless of cost. It's the BEST!I recently bought a 900 watt 1 ohm amplifier. People (especially car audio employees) said, "No. No. A 4 ohm is safer, blah, blah." And hey, maybe it is, if you have cheap speakers. I'm so happy with my 1 ohm. It hits the frequencies better than any other amp I've heard. Ever! I've blown two 10 ohms already. That means my amp is awesome and I need to stop being cheap with the speakers and get a hard core dvc 12 (or something). Take it from me, 1 ohm is unbeatable. Expensive, but well worth it.
I want to see that systemThis is a good thing to know if you have subwoofers. You can easily mount a plate in front of of the subwoofers which will conduct the air and the sound flow. You will have a clearer and louder bass, and you might save some room in your trunk.
. Who would have thought, a plate that redirects sub energy into the cabin! Bass is directional after all!Interesting...When putting subs in your trunk it's not a very good idea to have 15's. I would try to fit 12's, but 10's might have to do.
The "right place"? Like making sure power doesn't shunt to the power antenna motor?Amplify and crossover. Give it the power it was created for and send it to the right place. Music should be crisp, short, and fast on the high side and deep, long, and slow on the low side.
That SQ definition....wow. Just like a water hoseWhen you wire you system, you shouldn't cross the wires or have them tangled up. If they are tangled, it could cause a kink in the wire and you could lose power to your subs. Try to hide the wires as best as you can, because looks do matter."
If you're working in your trunk and want to stop your subs from getting power for a sec, just kink the wire and it'll stop current flow HAHA, I always hate when my sub blows when I turn down the volumeYou need to look at the total RMS wattage before you look at the MAX wattage because you can ruin a speaker faster under powering it faster than over powering it
since when did ohm rating tell you how a sub sounds??I would definately recommend against wiring two 8 ohm subwoofers in parallel, although it can be done. The much preferred solution is to buy a proper amp with two outputs and wire each individually. That provides for better quality sound.
Umm.......why the hell would anyone listen to this BS.When putting subs in your trunk it's not a very good idea to have 15's. I would try to fit 12's, but 10's might have to do.

I think Ryan the RE-tard could answer this :)Don't expect good quality for less than $125 a subwoofer

So will a dinner plate work for this?How to get more bass from your speakers icey

Don't worry about a capacitor for your headlights. Get a capacitor for sound quality. Holding long bass notes takes a lot of power. Without a capacitor, the bass starts to sound like it's dribbling. With a capacitor, the bass is one constant note. If you're into sound quality, the difference is huge.
