2 different brand of subs in a car?

[Eargunk]

Hi, i just wanna know what happens if i have 2 different brands of subs in my car, i currently have a pair of type R 12" alpines and looking to install a 3rd, possibly 1 Digital Design DD2500 or 1 kicker l7 or l5 or any other sub that would run 800rms (please recommend). If the sound quality is poor, would you recommend a type R alpine 15"?

To clarify if i have a 2 alpine sub next to a kicker sub, would the bass sound terrible?

ide say either go single digital desigh sub or single L7 with lots of power

theres only 1 way to find out... fit it in and fine tune all 3 to sort out the best configuration... but then again is it really necessary?

if its for looks or some sort of comp then id probebly get a 3rd sub that matched the other 2. aesthetically it only makes sense to make em look like they match. i know there are no specific rules to as to what you should or shouldnt do with your sound system, but the idea you are proposing makes little sense (imho).

itll only add weight to your car (which = more fuel consumption = spend more on petrol), run your battery down even quicker, burn another hole in your pocket (which could be better spent on maybe security system to protect what youve already got in your car or tune up) and itll further damage your eardrums.

youve got 2subs already. makes no sense adding a 3rd. it shouldnt be bout the quantity, it should be about the quality!
