which of these 2 subs?? Poll with pics

2 10" rockford fostgate p1s in box

Pros-
Looks hot
Loud

Cons-
Big
Heavy
The amp i have is a wee underpowered for these subs
too much for my car, in my opinion, im not entering any sound competitions

1 12" Pioneer something or other



The unsightly neon tube will not be coming along, it cracked when i took a turn too fast and my sub flipped over in my old car

Pros-
Decent Sound
Perfectly matched up wattage wise with my amp
Lighter than the one above
smaller, wont demolish my trunk space

Cons
not as loud, but still for this car may be a comftorable match

you'll get better gas milage and put less strain on your electrical system if you run a single sub with a smaller amp.

gas mileage? From the weight of the heavy subs or the strain on the electric system?

I'd go with a single. I'm running a single 10" Alpine R. What amp are you using?

I'd go with single. I have a 500 watt MAX in my truck and it rattles the spair tire under the bed. And I think that Pioneer is rated at 800 watts max (?) So it'll hit hard enough.

I had a low end amp and speaker system in my Horizon. Some one broke in and stole it. Used the insurance to install duel amp and duel sub woofer. Burned out in a year. Wish you better luck than I had.

It also makes a world of difference between the liftback and the sedan. The LB i would say the 1 would be enough but in a sedan, 2 is the way to go.
