Subs for a ported <2.0 cu. ft. box...?


Recommended Posts

As the thread title says, I'm looking to put 2 subs that will slap decently in a very small ported enclosure.

The enclosure is going under the seats of my 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab, hence the small internal volume.

I've heard only 8's and 10's would possibly work. I'm looking to feed these subs about 1000-1500 RMS daily.

Anyone have any suggestions for some subs? I've been looking at almost everything on here, but I can't seem to decide.

Thanks for all your help if you reply :drinks:

'05 Dodge Ram 1500

5.7L HEMI

Flowmaster 10 Series SI/DO

Audio-

Kenwood KDC-X994

Hertz Dieci 6x9 up front

Hertz Dieci 6.5 in the rear

More soon (hopefully)...

If the mounting depth lets you, i suggest two SA-8's.

thats still not gonna let him do 1000-1500 rms daily. I just really dont see that happening. the only thing i could tell you to try is these but i still for see you having a problem. ---> http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_27183_Alpine-SWR-T12.html

Call Dd ask them to build you some 1010s with extra spiders might work for you. Just depends on the box size. I recommend. Raising the back seat up 4 inches then build your box

There is nothing wrong with giving two SA-8's 1000 watts. Is there a law somewhere that i missed seeing?

good luck fitting them under the seat in the proper box or am I nuts he said ported remember.

Problem is box area. Don't think you'll get a very good sound from good woofers in that small of a box. Hence raise the seat. It can be done and still keep the back below the resr window. Then there is alot of room for a nice box.
