OK, my car(scion TC), does not make a upgraded alternator. I dont want to get a capacitator or any of that jazz. I just want two 12" subs and an amp. I was told to go with 2 12' w3v2's pushed by a 500/1. What is the best subs/amp combo i can get for around that same price(looking for SQL), and not have to get anything else like an alternator, extra battery.

and 2 of those se's combined rms of 1200 watts. Thats not too much? The guy at sound advice said that 2 12'w6v2's would probably be to much power and it's only 400 watts rms a piece.

guy at store is on drugs.. u cant have to much power rms..... you could have to much pounding as in too much rattling... and u can fix that with sound deadener... so dont worry about that part... u just have to worry about how much power ur running with ur alternator

i dont want do all that extra stuff. I just want to get something that is not too overpowering for my existing stuff. Since i know that the 500/1 amp from jl audio is optimum. What subs is the best for that amp...or for a similar amp that is better. What would they be?

After you install whatever you're going to, turn up your volume. When your lights begin to dim, you know that's the point you need to stop turning up the volume because your alternator isn't producing enough.
BTW, there are places that will rebuild the alternator that is in your car already so that it can produce more amperage. So you don't need to get a brand new one.
