I need help deciding on subwoofers, I NEED THUMP IN MY TRUNK Options

[chrisbf429]

So i've got two basic choices for my subwoofers! Either i get ONE alpine type R 12 inch sub that goes for about $100 or i get 2 Kenwood 12" subs for $45 bucks each. What should i do??? Any other ideas? my budget is around $100 for the subs so try to keep it in that range... Thank you!

If you like the big boom boom and listen to rap and hip hop, etc. Then definitely go with the Alpine Type R.
Just ensure you have an amp that puts out 500 watts rms and dont cheap out on wiring with 8 gauge, go 4 gauge.
Type R's are loud, not a huge fan of the sound they make but if its boom you like then absolutely its the go to subwoofer.

If you listen to a little more large variety of music such as rock and metal, try something more along the lines of the
Kicker CVR. Slightly less power handling (400 watts rms @ 2 ohm) but has a MUCH cleaner sound to it. Still has a lot
of umph to its sound but hits a lot cleaner than the Alpine. I like Alpines stuff don`t get me wrong but I think the CVR would suit
better for more of a round about subwoofer.
