I agree, for me it took a while to get ofer the stigma that subs had to be run two or more. But I am not into the huge bass anymore, much more into sound quality, and believe a single 10" or 12" will suffice in a small car like a Z.

Personally, I would take the money saved buying one sub and put towards a better amp.

Good luck, let us know what you decide.


*EDIT* Are the Punch amps 1 ohm stable? I think I always ran mine at 2 ohm.
Well as you guys have suggested I will go wiith a single 12" sub.

Not sure if you guys missed it but this is the Sub and Amp I am looking at right now:

P700-1BD - Rockford Fosgate 700 Watt Punch Series Amplifier
~$360

P3D212 - Rockford Fosgate Punch Stage 3 12" Dual 2-Ohm Subwoofer
~$140
