12" subs

How many of you think that putting two 12" subs is too big for a 03 civic?

Two 12's will be powerfull, depending on the amp driving them, the box built for them and the installation that tunes them to your car.

I had two DD 3512's in my '03 Civic. The enclosure was pretty damn huge but the thing was ridiculously loud. I am now running a single DD 2512 and it is perfect. The enclosure is a lot smaller and it still pounds hard enough to give me a headache. The price is nice too!

less is more. imo your best bet is to go with less components but of a higher quality. This generally makes enclosure design easier which is the most important aspect of your low end.
