10" or 12" Subs

I am running 2 10" subs and it is more than enough bass for a very clean sound. That is the route I would go. A 12" sub is going

Size isn't everything, but I agree it will have more than enough bass. I used to have 4 8"s that hit a lot harder and a lot lower than other setups my friend had with 2 12"s. At a different time I had a single 15" in a 4.5 cuft box that was a whole lot cleaner and tighter than a set of 10s or a set of 12s.

Moral of the story is buy good equipment and do it right the first time.
