Sub opinions

I am just looking for some opinions on Subs, I dont want to spend a fortune on them , but i want some good sounding ones, I would like to go with 2 12's in a box in the rear well, but, I have t-tops and would like to retain use of the factory bag clips, so, if you think I would do better with 10's or a single 12, please let me know

any ideas on amps to go with the subs? mounting location?


Thanks

you could go with a JBL 1200.1 for the amp $240

and an adire brahma 12 for your sub $379

or you could go with a resonant engineering xxx 10 for about the same price RE xxx10 just think how good it would look if you invert mounted it

if you wanted more SPL you could also go with a beyond audio inhuman 10 for around $350http://www.beyondaudio.ca.tc
