Well after installing some Zapco RH-13.2 component speakers in all 4 doors paired with a Alpine PDX-F6 I've decided I need some lows!
These speakers are LOUD, I mean... really loud.

I've decided on a box and and some subs that seem to be matched pretty good.

Hoping to go with with Dual 10" Fox Box

Then put some Image Dynamics IDQ10 V.3 D2 in there.
I listen to mostly rock (Disturbed, FFDP, Mudvayne, Rise Against) and some country which is why I choose these subs for their clarity and sound quality. Not looking to for the super lows from rap and hip hop.

From what I've read about these subs they're great and can handle a lot of power and perhaps might even be under rated. So I would like to actually push them with whatever amp I come up with.

I'm already pushing ~150rmsx4 to my door speakers (birth sheet came in at 173) obviously they're not taking all of that, but you get the point.


Any help or pointing in the right direction would be great

Is their a budget?
The choice amp should be rated about 1000 watts RMS to match the subs.

1200 watts at 2 ohms

If you changed the speaker to: 10" Dual 4 ohm IDQ V.3 Series Car Subwoofer. You could be at 1 ohm.

1200 watts at 1 ohm

Just so you know, that fox box has a very small cut out 9.125" the image dynamic speaker needs a 9.625" cut out.

Guess budget would help... Would like to stay in the $300 range.

Aware of the cutout issue, but thank you for pointing it out. Ill get the dremel out for that.

What's the advantage / is there an advantage of running at 1 ohm vs 2 ohm at the same watts?

Thanks for the suggestions, I've always heard Hifonics is a good brand but never ran anything from them.

Anyone else?

I've heard some good things on Soundstream as well, anyone have input?
