[QUOTE="nkacstreet, post: 8601022, member: 673821"] I realize there are a ton of variables that can go into a question like this. I've always ran 2 12's and am interested in running 4, but I also don't want to, if the benefits aren't that significant. I will be running about 2500 watts , haven't decided on an amp just yet. I have a subwoofer budget of 500 dollars, that might be negotiable for more if the benefits of the extra cost can be justified, but it wouldn't be over 700 that would be the limit. I have no lack of space, it will going in a mini van, so I can build optimum size enclosure for 4 subs. In terms of SPL, would it be better to spend more money each on 2 12's capable of handing 2500 watts divided by 2, or less money on each to get 4 subs dividing the 2500 watts, less watts to each sub of course, but having an increase in cone area. Any thoughts will be appreciated [/QUOTE]
