Dune Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 New member to the forum and my first post. I came here looking for advice on a system build I want done. As the title says, I have a 2008 Dodge Mega Cab that I want to have speakers installed behind the rear seat. What I'm looking for is pictures of systems or advice on what I can have installed. I would like it loud, but I'm not interested in having a blow through. I don't mind loosing the cargo boxes and I'm not too concerned about having the seats recline, as I'm usually the only one in the truck. My truck is by no means stock and I would love to go to some shows with it, but the system is definitely lacking. Any helps or suggestions would be appreciated.
TheBetterMethod Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Welcome! There are lots of guys with trucks on here. Go to the member builds section and see what you can find. Your truck had room for anything you want to put in there. You could easily fit a wall and 4 18s I'd say. I'll come back with some names of guys you should talk to... 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

Dune Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 Maybe I should specify that I use my truck as a daily driver. I'm interested in a system that would go behind the back seat... and not take up the entire interior... lulz
TheBetterMethod Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 You make me sad. Check out the truck AMI Customs has. Maybe it'll change your mind? 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

Dune Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 I'm confused on the 8 12's.... was the seat moved? And how much air spaces do those RE's require?

You would have to ask the guy who did it, idk if he is still active here or not.

TheBetterMethod Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Doesn't the Mega cab have a ton of space behind the rear seat though? Do you have the max dimensions? It would give us a better idea of what you're working with. I bet a pair of 15s or a set of 12s (4) would fit back there, in the right box. 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

Hifonics Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 So you don't want to wall it off but you want good bass? You could make a box that goes behind the seats (rear seats folded up) with 2 18's and still keep your visibility out the rear windows. Build it long and up to the window line. Make sure you fire your port up. (That's what I learned is required to make a truck loud). Subs fire forward or up. I hope this helps you. 2010 F150 FX4-18" AA Mayhem-Crescendo BC3500d-Pioneer GM-D9500F 4-channel-2 Crescendo FT1 -2 Crescendo Neo Forte 6.5 -Pioneer AVH-P3300BT-6000K HID Headlights/Fog lights-All LED interior lighting-20% tint on front windows, 1% rear windows, 5% windshield strip-Big3 (XSFlex 0ga) -DC Power 270XP -Group 65 NorthStar AGM battery Coming soon/plans: -Build log-Blacked out mirror reflectors-Tinted tails/3rd brake light
