Im trying to decide on a new system. I currently have 2 12" cerwin vega 124D's powered by a kicker 800.4 amp. Im redoing my interior as well as glassing the hatch area. I plan on doing a setup of 4 subwoofers, but cannot decide on which. I was hoping to get any opinions and comments on recomended subwoofers. Im not looking to spend a great deal of cash like for eclipse subwoofers. Im looking for more SPL oriented setup. What would you guys recommend from these choices: 12" kicker comp VR's(or 15"?) OR Pheonix Gold TI12's OR Rockford Fosgate 12" HX2's.

thanks for any and all feedback,

Luke

Or Eclipse titaniums.

In his post he stated tat he didn't want to put out the money for eclipses. Have you thought about the Kicker L7's? I saw that you had the Comp VR's and the L7's are supposed to be more of an SPL sub.
