I have gathered together a bunch of good, but random speakers and amps to throw in the VW GTI I'm playing with these days, and was very interested in peoples opinions on how to maximize both range of sound and especially bass. I want as much as possible period. here's what I'm working with.
2- 12" rockford fosgate sub's in box (no Port)
1- 12" infinity sub in box (no port)
1- 10" pioneer sub in box (ported)
1- 10" punch sub no box
2- 5" sony 120W max
1- 6x8" sony 150W max
2- Kenwood 3" 120W max
1- infinity 4x6" 105W max
Pioneer deck (CD) with 2 sub-outs (I have splicers so I have sub outs) and 45W per ch.
2- Kicker impulse bass coils and crossover
1 phoenix gold line driver (small-20db??)
1 mtx amp #2160 most powerful 4 ch.
1sony amp (no max power info on it)2ch.
1 Denon amp no max power info 4ch.
I know the logical thing to do is pick one or two and go from there, but being logical is not my objective, hearing loss is. it will be going in an 84 GTI...don't need spare tire, and only really care about keeping 1/2 of the back seat. remember, it's not about getting it all in, I'd like it to be as powerful as possible but still sound good. any suggestions???

As for subs, the best dual sub choice may be the RF subs you have now, depending on power handling. What model are these and are they SVC or DVC configurations? The Infinity may be useful if you choose a single 12" sub design. What model is that one?
As for interior speakers, the 5" may be a fair choice for the rear deck as rear fill and good set of Comps/Coaxials in front doors or kick panels.
As for amps, if you supply the fuse counts for each amp, can calulate approximate power of each amp mentioned.
1 MTX amp #2160 most powerful 4 ch.
1 Sony amp 2ch.
1 Denon amp/4ch.
Are you sure on that MTX amp #? Not in MTX archives, so may be very old or foreign made design???
