New Car audio system?

I'm wanting to put 2 new alpine type r subwoofers, SWR 10 D4 or SWR 10 D2, which one should I get and what's the difference? Also what amp would be compatible for the 2 10 inch subs or would I need two amps?

  • The D4s have dual 4 ohm voice coils, and the D2s have dual 2 ohm voice coils. They just give you different wiring options so you can get the impedance you want.

    If you get the Dual 4 ohm version, you can wire them for a total of 1 ohm. So to get the max out of those subs, you're looking for an amp that can do 2000 watts rms at 1 ohm.

    Something like that would do nicely. If you decide to go with something cheaper, make sure it's CEA compliant first so you know you're really getting what you paid for.
