1 12" or 2 10"??
I have one 2/1 channel Alpine amp with one 10" sub. if i wanna more bass, should i replace the current one with a 12" or get another 10"??
here are the specs for my amp:
Max power 225x2 4ohm; 600x1 4ohm
12v RMS power 70x2 4ohm; 120x2 2ohm; 240x1 4ohm
14.4v RMS power 100x2 4ohm; 170x2 2ohm; 340x1 4ohm
btw, what do the readings of 12v and 14.4v mean and how can i find out on which setting i am running?

Your battery is 12 volts - your alternator is (supposed to be) 14.4 volts.
As far as getting more bass, you'd have to plot out the drivers you're thinking of using to find out what kind of frequency curve will result in the enclosure you have.

Well, if you want louder bass, just get another 10. you'll have more surface area, with which you'll be moving more air.
If you want deeper bass, go to a 12.
The two 10s would be louder than a 12.

i found that alpine type R line subs have tighter bass so they blend in with the speakers pretty well. i will probably just get another 10' then. thanx
