Bronze Member Username: Mittens08Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-09 | thanks!! ive never heard of image dynamics r they good woofers...i was looking into a pair of kicker cvrs or maybe JL W3s...i jus want it to have a nice clean crisp bass but still gets loud |

If so you would want two dual 4 ohms. And make sure to wire the subs like this.... http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard/2_4ohmDVC_4ohm.gif |
