Do you wanna be loud?
My old old car = loudest in tassie 2 x 15in.
My old Polo = best sound quality car in tassie 1 x 12in.
But yeah - love subs, fit as many as you can in a nice install! (but beware if there is a bad bog job on your car - it will rattle that out...)

I've only got one 12 running 500w and its kinda painful.. just put it in the right spot with the right box and should be fine..

Neither of my car's have working AM radios... let alone subs.

spyda has 1 x 12" sub with his own custom box that will make your brain turn to mash potato, if you buy the right stuff and build a good box you can get away with just the one man its not about quantity, its about quality , nothing better than embarressing people with like 20 subs squeezed into there car lol, anyway how you gunna get the spare out with so many subs?? lol

Lots of subs are fun.

You can get more power with 1 decent sub and a good amp (or 2 amps if it has dual voice coils) than 50 dodgy ones. The physics of it is that for every extra sub putting out the same power, you are adding 3db. Double the watts, add 3 db.

I think that 1 good sub in a really well braced box is more than enough, but if you already have them, then why not continue.

What subs are they? Think I'd go for a nice Eclipse sub if they are still a good company...

If all 3 subs are going into your car, a 18+ year old MK2 (I guess)
How bigger chance do you think there is of every slightly loose panel, screw, piece of plastic and metal rattling with each DOOF of the subs?
I didn't know a MK2 alternator could power 3 subs along with everything else
