whats up im new to the whole car audio thing i got a alpine cda 105 head unit and thats it
i want to get some subs and speakers for as cheap as i can but i want it loud my budget is like 1000 more or less

i was thinking 2 alpine type r's 12 with a amp at 700 rms to each so total 1400rms not sure of an amp for it tho but those are kinda pricey thats without an amp and ive been looking around and there is better

not sure what to get 2 12 or a single 15 or 18 so im asking for help

seeing as they dont make 18" type r's id go for the 15. The 15 will cot less than 2 12's and give similar output and box volume as the 2 12's

you will also not need as larg of an amplifer to run the 15 compared to the 12's

You should easily be able to find a 15" type r and a 1000 watt rms amp for under 500.

also running 2 12's on 1400 rms will strain your electrical quite a bit and you will need to do the big 3 and/or add a second battery.
