Post 12" or 10" on a 250 amp?

Well currently I got 2 10" subs running with a 500 watt amp. I got room for a 12", but should I get a 10" to match the set I got now?

Will a 12" sound better then a 10" at 250 watts?

Rule of thumb...

Never mix and match different size subs.

Get a third 10" sub. And some more power if you can afford it. With 3 subs running off that 500W amp they will only be getting 167W a piece.

no no....I got a 500 watt amp on 2 10" 's,
I got a spare 250 watt amp to power a third sub.

So thats 250 watt's per sub .
