And buy 2 alpine amps and i am wondering if they would sound good at hit hard, or am i just wasting my money, and should buy something else? |

Not the most impressive SPL wise, but they are made to be put in a sealed box for SQ. Alot of people on this site might not agree with me but I think they are good subs for that price. |
