I believe that you could do much better. What's the price?

i can choose any of these for free. this is gonna be my first car subwoofer and i want to choose the better 1. i've done a bit of research and looks like kicker 12'' cvr is $86 on amazon com and opti drive goes for well above 100.
opti is 900watt rms
kicker 400 watt rms

loooks like opti has a bigger magnet, so is it better? i have no clue... i'm so noob...

i've read that these opti drives are best in lanazar's series but i'm not sure.. that's why asking to help out

with that amp if your got a choice ild get the 2 ohm dvc Kicker CompVR 07CVR122. just type that in on amazon its right under the 1 your getting. i dont know if somebody is goin to buy it for u or if some 1 is giving it to u but your amp u got is only going to push 150 watts rms bridged at 4 ohms which is y u would need dual 2 ohm voice coil. u can wire it at 4 ohms. the duel 4 ohm voice coil will only do 2 ohms or 8 and if u wire it at 8 ure only lookin at about 50 watts maybe less. and if u bridge a 2 ohm load it will clip ure amp. that amp wouldnt work for that lanzer. it doesnt put out nowhere near the amount of power u need for it. a sub that would be better with that amp if u can get it though would be a diamond d1 at 2ohm dvc better than the kicker. but the kicker is goin to sound better with that amp than the lanzer.

i know this audio set up must be the worst on this forum but it's all free for me anyway and it's my first set up ever. i will throw it away after a while and do some real upgrade in the future when i buy another car. for now i just need a bit of bass because my standart speakers won't pick up any low notes.

kicker then kicker. thanks for suggestion.

that is the link for the kicker

http://www.amazon.com/DIAMOND-AUDIO-D112D2-2-Audio-Subwoofer/dp/B0039538LG

that is the link for the 2ohm dvc diamond d1. it says 200 watts rms but the rms is is really 250 but it would be a good match for ure amp. and its a good price for a new 1. ild go diamond audio over kicker any day!!!!!!!!!
