amp Linky poo:
i cant find anything alpine 4 channel in your price range which will power a sub and comps
so youll have to either get 2 seperate amps, one 2 channel and one monoblock
or get a JBL http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/2911.html
I have the JBL and I personalyl wouldnt use their speakers but read a review of the amps and very powerful and nice and bassy for the price
Maybe martin can help you further

Mate you do not need 2 subs.
I have one 12" sub (infinity 300wrms) and ive had to set to half gain on the amp and half on the headunit otherwise its far too loud.
If you have to get a package get a single alpine one and put the money youve saved to a 2 channel amp and some comps
ive got 2x 12'' subs and there loud as ****! the gain is only just turned up
its stupidly loud wish i never got them now as i have NO room in my boot atall!!
id say get a nice 10'' subs with some very good comps instead!

iv only got one fusion sub and a fusion monoblock amp and its louder than my friends by miles and he has 2 infinity subs you reli dont need two subs mate jus get a decent sub and amp package :doublethumbs:
someone tell me decent things to get, i am gettin a £199.99 Alpine head unit that is 60by4 watts if thats any help
iv only got one fusion sub and a fusion monoblock amp and its louder than my friends by miles and he has 2 infinity subs you reli dont need two subs mate jus get a decent sub and amp package :doublethumbs:
i no some1 with a vibe 15'' subs and its louder on some music... but mines louder with hip hop, rnb, bass testers
what determines how bassy a sub is then?
im not sure.. i can change mine soooo much... i can have it so u can just hear them or so the bass is louder than the spoken word just from the H/U without adjusting the amp
i think martin would be more helpfull here as i dont no alot realy just mine is loud lol
what have you got, any chance of a link?
im lookin for some new ICE atm cz mine got smashed up :(:(
Cheers
umm i havent got a link sorry as i got them from a member on here ill try and find the link tho
and im running a 1600W bass toxic amp
1600 rms
i have these subs
http://corsa-c.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=62187
i love them!
and this head unit http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/4624.html
they must be LOUD, did u say your mates fusion was louder tho???
how can anything be louder thatn 1600rms?
i thought it was rms that determined quality and loudness
i just want to make the right choice as i cannot live without bass :dance:
haha no my mates 15'' vibe is louder, but mine seems more bassy, i think it maye only be because i dont have any rear speakers but he does
yeh i had 6x9s with my sub and never noticed a clash of bass??
what actually happens??
i mite get 6x9s and comps, is that poss?
i had 6x9's but the subs are so big i hadd take them out lol
the box is huge!!
ill take some pics as im off out later anyways:)
i dont see why u cant get comps+6x9's but im just gonna get some very good comps upfront as thats where u sit most of the time:)
are alpine type rs the best?
there not bad but im thinking of going OTT and getting diamond or something lol
diamond are lower WRMS tho on caraudiosecurity
also what is that little box taht comes with them looks like a TV screen :S:S
