Hey guys, I'm about to drop some money on a new system, and I can't decide whether I want 2 10's or a nice single 12 sub. I listen to mostly rock and rap, what do you guys think is better?

If you have the money look for JL W7 12 or 13.5" and you will be very happy

WAYYYY to many variables with that question...

What kind of box are you looking to get? Does it matter the size? Keeping 3rd row? Ported? Sealed?

Just like Nathan said too many variables. A pair of ported 8s can sound better and have more output than a 12w7 and take up less room, just depends on what you want out of your stereo but there is no cookie cutter solution for this. I did two sealed 12s with 600rms on each, gains way down and it sounds really good for anything I listen to. Some creedence comes on and I can turn the bass up a hair or bang out some UGK if I feel like getting a massage. 0.88cf/sub and lots of cargo space is the route I took but as previously stated it all depends on what you're looking for

Thanks for the responses guys. I have no 3rd row, so Ive got space to work with, but I don't want something huge, I need that space for storage.
