Help selecting 12” sub-woofer and 5 channel amp
So I made a not-so-stealth 12" sub box a while back and I am ready to do a slight upgrade to it. I need to put the 12” sub-woofer I have been running back in to its original enclosure and install it in my son’s car so I am researching the replacement for it. I think this would make a great step up: Rockford Fosgate R1S4-12. While I am playing with things I wanted to install a 5 channel amp to really get things rocking. Here is the one I was thinking of using: Rockford Fosgate R600X5 5 channel amp. It looks to have just the right output for the sub-woofer and should drive my Infinity door speakers to their potential. I just hope the amp is slim enough to mount under the back seat because I would like to mount a sine power inverter where the current amp is.
What do you all think?
