I used to have a single 12" in my old car and did make a good noise, suprisingly tight for a 12.

Enjoy it!

I've always had Phoenix Gold & various other US stuff for amps & subs for the last 10 years. I think they're the Dogs Dangley bits. Gonna get two more upgraded 12" PG subs soon.

I've never been taken with Kenwood, Alpine, Sony, etc, for some reason. I guess they're good value but the less known Yank brands always seem the best.

Phonenix are the best amps money can buy, especially if u can get hold of the old M series amps (about 9 years old don't be put off) these amps can double their recommended rms figures. By using the correct wiring, and battery and fans.

sub wise.... in my opinion JL AUDIO!!! all the time. I had 2 12WOs in a custom made sealed box (made by myself), I was setting off car alarms, drowning out peoples tvs in there houses. thats only 125watts!!! and no dynamat!!!

audiobahn audiobahn audiobahn audiobahn audiobahn
if you got the money if you want deep low bass than i cant recommend them enough if you want tight bass jl audio is the dogs dogs ive had alpine and even though the sound quality is second to none i had 3 12" r types running and it never seemed as loud as my 1 12" audiobahn sub but the again alpine speakers need serious power to run and its all about mixing systems to get performance for example i had a jl audio amp running a single voice coil 12 s-type alpine sub and this thing rocked so its all about trying out different combinations
