Normal sized subs are way better for a given price.. The box only needs to be around 1 cubic foot for most cheaper woofers its not that much space if you think about it mine is in 2.7 cubic feet and there's still plenty of space in the boot..

It all depends on what music you listen too, if its a lot of kick snare (rock, heavy music)a 10 inch will be find if its more rap etc you'd want a 12 to carry the bass a little more Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85873-amp-and-sub-install/page/4/#findComment-1415084 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those subs are around 1200watt but only about 200w rms, your saying this would be better than the 300w rms 10" ??Cheers..

When I made a twin 12" box it sat about 6" over the spare wheel dip just to get enough room inside to run 2 400rms subs Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85873-amp-and-sub-install/page/4/#findComment-1415336 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 7m 23d Posted 13/08/13 07:33 AM Share Posted 13/08/13 07:33 AM Yea probably! I went about 1 and 3/4 with my current 500rms sub and it sounds soooo much better. Better brand sub probably helps too lol Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85873-amp-and-sub-install/page/4/#findComment-1415469 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't have bass without space Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85873-amp-and-sub-install/page/4/#findComment-1415534 Share on other sites More sharing options...
