How many subs? also Alpine Type R?

right now i got 2 sony p5's (5 sided red one) i know the subs aren't good so plz dont start bagging on them, but im askin, how many subs should u have for a decent "punch" or "hit" when i sat in my friends car that had one sub at 300 it was bass, not that loud, but there was lotta bass, with 2 subs it gets loud, with 3 subs it gets really loud and u can feel all the bass inside of you lol, from what i've heard before, it doesn't matter how many subs you have, but from like a few houses away they all sound the same, i guess the more subs makes it hit only harder inside right?


I wanna know what u guys prefer?
1 sub at 300 watts
2 subs at 300 watts each
3 subs at 300 watts each

o yea and is the Alpine Type R sub any good?

no doubt 3 subs at 300 watts each. Im too tired to explain why but it is just better. Or get one sub at like 1000Watts :\

More subs means more displacement, more displacement means louder bass, inside and outside the car. You can get more displacement several different ways though. A better sub with more excursion, more power, or multiple subs. Really your question doesn't have any merit, because my single 12" sub has the displacement of 3+ crappy 12" subs, 2 decent 12" subs, or like 5 generic 10" subs.

The type-r is a decent sub, get one and port it and you should be happy.
