right ive decided to get some sound q audiobahn alum subs 1100w rms

im thinking of getting two 15inch ones but unsure
what im after is the deepest tight rib cage shaking bass you can think of
ive heard the soundq alum subs at ripspeed in a mint white renault 5
they was too bassy making the whole car shake aswell as me but i was unsure what size they was so what size shud i go for if i want the best quolity bass
15inch ones or 12s

Depends really on the type of music you listen to. If you want rumbling rattle-the-car bass then yeah go for 15s. But make sure everything is screwed in tight else it will vibrate and sound crap (there's nothing worse than seeing a car drive past making a stupid vrrp vrrp vrrp noise as the subs rattle all the interior!! lol)

If you want punchy bass that you can feel in your chest and doesn't rattle windows then go for something smaller like 10".

And don't forget big wattage doesn't always equal big sound or great quality ;)

Exactly. Make sure you make the boxes to size specified by the manufacturer and you should be sorted. :thumb:
