Definately right. Now this is a subject I know alot about. I listen to everything to Jazz (Kenny G) to Pantera/Metallica to Country music. Dont like Rap or hip ho too much though.

When I install a system for someone who listens to this stuf I want the tightes bass possible. I always use JL's. Go with the 12W6's. two of them. They are a 6ohm dual voice coil. Put them in a sealed enclosure. JL makes one for them. I can remmber which one it is off hand, but the box has two seperate chambers for the subs. These are 12" subs. You can use 10" but dont recomend them. If you want it really loud the 10's will pop. (Not enough excursion lenth to handle the punch). The box should be around 0.75-1.75 cu.ft per sealed side. No bigger, no less. As far as the amp, I use the Soundstream Rubicon 555 or the 355 models. When you or the install place wires the subs make sure they wire each coil in parallel with each other this will give you 1.5 ohms of impedance. The sounstreams are actually good to .5 ohms even though they may only advertise 2 ohm. This sould give you about 300 watt to the subs total. Pleanty of thump for rock music. It will Be tight bass and really clear. Oh almost forgot one thing a crossover for the subs. You can use the one on the amp but I reccomend using a seperate crossover. Anyone of moderate price will do. Some people may talk about frequecy leed over, but its not as much of a deal when making a system for rock music. Use a crossover frequency of about 80hz. Any lower than that you wont get any punch and if it is higher than you may hear the subs pop once in a while on stuff like a rolling bass drum.

Hope this helps ya out. NONE of this stuff is too expensive. The amp should run you about $350 USD and the subs around $150 USD a piece.

Keep in mind if you go with the 555 which will pump out about 300 watts to your subs vice the 355 (200watts) you will need to upgrade your alternator to minimize Headlight dimming.
