Time to resurrect this post. I have an aftermarket amp all hooked up and ready to go. My car speakers are re-wired from the stereo back, all factory amps/wires are no longer in the car. I was pushing a 12" Sub in a bandpass box, with a 500 watt amp... a good one (Rockford Fosgate Prime). I sold the sub and box, wanting the sound more inside the car and not travel as far, as well as free up some trunk space. I got lucky and found a factory box for $5. I have 3/4" pressboard I can use to line the enclosure with.
I am wondering should I go with something like a JL 6w0 or Kicker 10CVT654 (can be used sealed or without a box), or go for more with an 8 such as Infinity Reference 8-Inch Ininity Reference. I definitally have the power to push a sub, and a multimeter to set my rms using a 70hz sine wave track on a cd.
