d. Get the Earthquake Sound SWS 8X (4ohm) - cheaper

What would you do, how to marry this 2x160w (for the woofers) amp?
If you are swapping to Earthquake, get the 2ohm version. As I install in a X3, I can put the subwoofer under the trunk so I wouldn't swap out the OEM underseat sub as I think it is good enough. Once I install the trunk sub I will tune the underseat sub to cover from 80hz and 200hz.

I'm getting the Bimmertech Alpha One underseat sub to replace in my F10 L7 Top Hifi sub. I'll let you know if that make a difference.
Let me know how those will sound.
