This guide is to aid you in your search for car sub woofers and amplifiers. So many people jump right into car audio without really knowing much about it.

Lets talk about the types of sub woofers:
I talk about RMS often, RMS is a technical term referring to the continuous amount of wattage a sub can handle.
