Smaller subs would give a crisp sound... lol Their's nothing 'CRISP' about bass unless you dont know how to set a crossover correctly! Im not sure if you own a corsa but 'in my opinion' you have no idea how big a corsa boot is. You can fit three sealed 12's EASILY in the boot of a corsa, I know others who have four sealed 12's, I personally have had FIVE amps, two 12's and an optima yellow top battery in the boot! | |

But if he's going to be entering his corsa into Street 3-4 in DB Drag, and didnt have enough room in the boot for the sub box to fit below the window line for 4 subs, he'd surely want 3 subs(possibly 12's, as thats the limit for 3 subs in street 3-4) inside his boot. Running off a single amp at 1.33ohms mono. And the best way to get maximum SPL would be to have as much cone area as possible in a ported box. And its possible to have 6^ft in a corsa boot. | |

Tomas - Concidering the norm when it comes to Subs it would be fair to asume he has 10s or 12s. You have to agree that whether ported or sealed the space in the boot of a corsa just isn't big enough. I'm not saying you'll really notice it as you're driving down the road but it just won't have that crystal clarity. You have to have sufficient air in front of the cone as well not to mension physically fitting it all in the boot. | |

if they're 1000rms, you'll want an amp that is about 3500rms @ 1ohm mono. then wire them down to 1.33ohms and you'll be giving them close to 1000rms each. | |
