Post 2 8"s or 1 12"....that is the question!

Well, I got enough room to add 2 8" subs or one 12" sub I got a 250 watt amp for them. More wattage would go to the 12" like 200. or 75 a piece for the 8"'s what should I do?

Please I don't need any crap so only post if you got something informative to say!

You'd better check your math.

You can either run all 250W to a single 12" sub or 125W to each 8" sub.

I'd go the 12" route if it were my choice to make.

I have no idea how you managed to get to those number... I'm gonna have to go with LS1 Rulz (as usual, we agree). You need to check your math and I'd go with the 12. Maybe in a Milhouse box or a 12" stealth box.

Definately 1 or 2 twelves depending on what model you get 2 twelves could really take very little room back there.
