sub suggestions in an ext. cab s10


Recommended Posts

Well im thinking about selling the two l7 15's that i got and getting just a single 18. I feel like the overall output of a single beefy 18 or something similar to my original idea would be better. Basically, my question is what sub should i get for my ext. cab s10? Power will be a hifonics brz2400.1 with cadence 1/0 gauge wiring. I'll have two kinetic batteries also but unsure of what size. Price limit is $500

Sundown nightshade, FI BTL

Those are probably the first two I would look at.

But im a fan of dual sub set ups I must say, if you have the room.

so far...

8 18's. lose the back window and blowthrough!

in all sreiousness it all depnends on BUDGET, and existing equipment such as amps. I HIGHLY recommend the Alpine Type R's, they can be foud cheap and in all my experice get loud easily

lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz.

Well i was going to get an s10 but may get a full size tacoma, either one of the two. Seats will be removed. Box will be tuned somewhere b/t 30-35hz. Im not worried about it going above the window line. I just dont want to do a blowthrough. I just want a sub with the most output for getting loud yet sounding decent.

Your electrical has nothing to do with the amount of subs lol, 2400 watts is plenty for a nice dual set up
