We Have the Beats!

I have a small 8" 300w LoPro 8 powered amp in my car and that thing already makes the whole car rattle at half power. Thus I find big subs overkill for this car, especially with the space it takes.

But again I often load up the car so I don't have room to keep moving a sub every time :p

Yeah, I went back and forth on going for a 10" in sealed box, or self powered 8" tube. I used to run 12" subs, so I couldn't help myself lol.

I feel like the tube would have required nearly as much space in the hatch so although the 10" isn't technically necessary for this size of car, it certainly is fun. I also like being able to tune it down and still hear/feel those deeper lows.

We use my car for grocery runs but it's just the two of us, so we never need all the space.
