why with atleast 2 sets of preouts? just use a rca splitter, but if u can try to get a HU with a preout of atleast 2V, the JVC HU are pretty good even the ones around $200 have a pre-out of 2.4V. and yeah u got a budget in mind?

when you split 1 rca pre out you lose the ability to fade front to back and h/u with 2 or more sets aren't that much more than any other h/u.
as for pre out voltage, 2v is pretty standard, if you look at the Alpine range of headunits most of them come with 4v preouts.
Why higher voltage pre outs you ask?
means you dont need to turn the gain up on your amp as high to match the h/u voltage, therefore making life easier for your amp.
yeh prob looking at around 300 max for subs....aroudn the same for the mono amp..and around 400-500 for the new head unit..thats wat ill have to spend
Headunit Alpine CDA 9847. has 3 sets of 4v pre outs(front/rear/sub) remote control, MP3/WMA $500 retail
I actually have a 9827 which is last years 9847 and cant fault it, top h/u
for the amp look no further than the Jaycar monoblock.
retails for $400 and is good for 820rms @ 1 ohm.

with a $300 sub budget I'd be looking at just one better quality sub with dual 2 ohm coils as $300 for 2 will only see you buying shit.
1 good quality sub with 800rms will sound alot better(and even be louder) than 2 shit subs.
even stretch that sub budget to $400 and have look at the for sale section at www.caraudioaustralia.com
Yeah they are 2nd hand subs but you'll be able to buy above your budget as far as quality goes and most of the guys on there dont sell crap.
well depends how loud u want ur bass to be.. but if u have a low budget i think u should just stick to having 1 12" sub. rather than 2.
it would be a different story if u were deciding between a one 15" sub and 2 12" subs..
1 15" sub can not only be as loud as 2 12s but can be louder.
I know I've seen it.
just as 1 12 can be louder than 2 10s
I only have one 12 inch sub, with a large box, larger than recommended.
Mates have said its really good and enjoyable!
If you want to be heard 2 streets away then go for 2 subs and a good amp, if not and just want to enjoy the bass of your music just get one sub, with an appropriate amp!
yeah i got a 12' pioneer in my hatch, good enuff for me as the car is small
runnin 300rms into it (sub rated at 400rms)
depends ... 1 x 13.5 w7 will be enough ...rather than buying 6 x 12 cheap subwoofers.
2 x 13.5 W7 will become a bomb.
