i had two of em in my civic, they sounded nice for a while but then i wanted more, i ended up getting 2 tens, then i wanted more, i ended up getting 2 12's, the i wanted more, so i end up with 2 12" L7's, point is, youll like it for a while but soon youll want more

just go ahead and spend the money and get a set of entry level 12s, theyll sound way better and be louder then a tube. just my :2cents:

not really .... it's essentially a variant of the bazooka mentality. I think they are tellin ya to look at more standard 12's

a standard twelve is gonna give you the most satifactory sound, and still wont be that expensive if you stay away from competion level stuff.

Heh, I went through that same sh!t that 95DXCivic went through with my 93 civic. I started with 2 tubes. Then upgraded to 2 10s. Then upgraded again with 2 12s. Thats why with my new car, Im just going straight to a 15" L7 SB ;)

id recommend a couple infinity perfect 10s or 12s in a sealed box with a seperate amp. they do not require a lot of power and take up very little space. theyll perform just fine in say .9 to 1.3 cubic feet per speaker. youll only need like 200 to 350w per speaker

i have one in my 1982 camaro...its pretty nice but not top of the line bass...it did rattle the entire back of the camaro tho...for the price....i heard the crv's have room for a 8" tube underneath the picnic table...

187's wont sound SO clean...but the SE will. the 187 will probably give best bang for buck loudness. and since you listen to rap audible difference is slim (all electronicaly produced 808 bass :boom: notes for the most part)
a single RE 12 in a nice ported enclsore..want more? get 2...
or a pair of RL-i 8's ported should give some niceness...i havent head an RL-i just an RL-p 12 but if the RL-i's are anything similar they are quite clean and thoes are probably the best 8's on the market that dont brake the bank (nothing really compares to a w7 8 at the moment of the top of my head).

whoops, the RL-i 8's will be out for a while, i just checked... and they havent even been out that long. wow they went fast. maybe look for a used pair or just go with another option...
