Actually i found them like $200 cheeper elsewhere but i wanted to give the best discription on them and that was it there still expencive but from what ive heard there awsome. As far as mounting the subs how many cubic feet can i get outta the cargo area in the rear for the subs i wanna make sure they get enough air, also when it says it needs 2.5 cubic feet of space does that incude the space the sub takes or not? And the other sub link looks interesting have you heard them personally? What did you think?

#1 id be wearing about buying any rockford product in the last 3 years.

#2 id be weary about the performance of a sub that clearly has a lot of money spent into its looks.

#3 definitely look into a brahma or if you really want loud Resonant Engineering MTs

that RF sub is 1000 watts rms...get a single brahma 12 or 15. give it 1200 watts and the right box (smaller than RF sub) and it will be louder and much more crisp
