It is amazing how things have changed over the past maybe 5-10 years with preference on sub size. Most everyone then was wanting something you could here 10 miles away with as many speakers and amps they could fit in the back. Now everyone is looking for clean and simple systems. Of course I think it most is from the fact that 10 years ago there was limited availability on aftermarket parts. In 1996 there were no euro/clear taillights. You might find a $250 strut bar from Hondasport for your honda. Even accords didn't have much available for them at that time. Oh well I still prefer as many 15's I can fit tho

I'm not sure about that one. I still see/hear alot of people that are all about having bass you can hear from a good distance away. It's stupid, because if you have it loud enough that it can be heard a couple hundred feet away, then it HAS to be bad to your hearing inside the car. I prefer 12's but have always ran 10's b/c of the price/deal I got on my system(like $30 for 2 subs and an amp w/boxes) I like a nice clean sound with alotta thump when you want it.Quote:

Yea I work at a local shop and we sell mostly 12's a few 10's and rarely a 15. Usually just one 12. I owned my own shop for 12 years and can remember alot of people when they come in didn't ask much about 10's or 8's they went straight to the 12's or 15"s and the biggest amp. You would get a few folks to ask about smaller subz if they were looking for the SQ more than DB level. I can go on and on but over the years I have seen things change alot with the automotive aftermarket business. But no complaints always been fun thats why I still do itComment

I like balance...not too much bass...but not enough bass sounds flat...so I would say 2 12" powered at 250W...but only with 3 way, 4 way or component speakers...Comment

sounds like a good mix of lows, mids and highs, however, the wattage has relatively nothing to do with how it will all sound, unless we are talking extremes here..Originally posted by JDM_EJComment
