Default One or Two subs?

I'm helping my brother in law out with a sub install in a 94 x-cab silverado. He bought 2 RF Punch series 1 12" subs and a Punch 2 channel amp. Now I think he should take back one of the subs and bridge the amp to mono. My question is will one sub sound better with the amp bridged to mono, thus getting more power, than both subs hooked up to the same amp, or should we just hook up both subs?

You should bridge the amp either way. Whether he should use one or two subs depends on how loud he wants it.

2 subs are obvioulsy going to move more air, resulting in more pressure in cab, resulting in more bass :-) but I am only running one in my T/A and it is more than sufficient, and I ran all sorts of setups in my s-10 when I had it, from 12 inch l7's to single 15, all depends on what he is going for
