but would it look/sound better in a bigger box, compared to ones like these (http://www.amazon.com/Enterprises-p661A-Speaker-Enclosures-Pair/dp/B001DY9DAK/ref=sr_1_13?s=car&ie=UTF8&qid=1292359368&sr=1-13) except in 6x9's ofc

I wouldnt because of space. Get fiberglass kick panels and get them mounted there.

I just bought 2 of these http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Kicker+-+Comp+12+Single-Voice-Coil+4-Ohm+Subwoofer/9892921.p?skuId=9892921&id=1218190731552#tabbed-customerreviews

Please dont post saying that these are crappy.. I KNOW shh

GO to eeeebay and pick me out a nice amplifier for these.

Dont post the eeeebay link, because that doesnt work, just post the eeeebay title of the item here.

Thanks!

ALso post your qualifications... I dont want a rand

I also have a basic question..

These are 150RMS each @ 4 ohms each, so 300RMS together @ parallel thats 2ohms.

Would a 300RMS @ 2 ohm amplifier mono amplifier work? THanks!

ive already told u it wont.. if u want to use a 2ohm amplifier you need to get single 2ohm speakers and wire them in series. if u want to see im not a rand look in my profile.

Yup I know how to wire and put stuff together, I have a minor in physics. Thats exactly what I am doing!

Just didnt know if I needed to match the RMS of amp with RMS of subs.

They dont teach you about that in school, only alot of math and theory

i think hes thinking they are dvc subs.

its pretty straightforward when it comes to amps as long as you understand the terminology but asking gets you insight and tips which will help in the future.

Okee

What size speaker wire?

400RMS amp with 2 150 RMS subs for 300RMS total?

Im getting a 4gauge/80amp fuse kit to go overboard,

What size speaker wire do I need? I Rather go much thicker

That probably is more than you need, but it's always better to have bigger wire! Well.. No it isn't always better..
I think you should get a really nice 8 gauge kit, that or a really shitty 4 gauge one.
You will probably just need regular speaker wires, I think they're usually 10 or 12g
