General comments like "These will pound in your car!" are garbage. It is all about proper tuning and setup. If you ask around here for a little guidance in setting them up, they will be fine. P, or ttocs or seight or Hiss will come aorund and lend you some guidance. I have an idea, but don't want to lead you astray. Do you have an amp? A sub box? If you do what brand, type, etc? Is it installed yet? Then we can get you some where.

Joey asked some questions that must be answered.

Also, what type of music do you listen too.

If you do not have that equipment Joey mentioned, what is your budget?

pyles will be loud in a stang.
duals will be loud in a stang. well actually duals will blow before you install them
anyway, the mtx stuff is OK but id look into mbquart or ma stuff if you only can get the 8000 stuff.
and elemental designs has made me a believer.. so if youre feeling funky..

Mono is what you want. What's an r/t box? What are the ratings on the subs?

Are you telling me you have an unlimited budget? I was hoping to keep in under $1000.Do you want to keep your rear seat?

Sony amps are complete garbage and would only make 1000 watts if stuck by lightening.

People like what they like but telling some1 so sell there sony is just help cuz sony has terrible c/s and sucky products. ok im done.
