the first thing we need to know is how much you want to spend to be able to give you the best selection of equipment for your money

if you want some breath taking bass
i would seriously consider the following sub
Orion: HCCA-122 - 12"
and match that to this amp
Orion: HCCA25001

I was thinking the same thing I've already got 2x12 Orion xtrpro subs on a kenwood amp but it don't seem to take your breath away so I'm going to sell all that and start again is there any other options ????? It don't have to be 1 sub it can be 2

you can go for 2 subs but you will then also need 2 amps
and if you go for the orion gear you can kiss at least 2k away for a start

6 channel amp on subs not really ideal.

What space do you have in the boot?

Also remember you'll want 0awg, anything over 1-1.5k you'll also want an extra battery at least i'd say.

The orion stuff is nice but 2.5k is going to need more power than a standard battery can provide.
