Sub Woofer and Box Suggestions for Truck


12V71

Recommended Posts

Not really happy with the performance of these old 12s and want to do something new. All Input is appreciated for a large extended cab truck.  

Notes:

SQL focused

Budget 700 for subs

Power 1000 RMS at 2 ohm (amp can not run at 1 ohm and not buying another amp)

Need to face subs in a way that can accommodate the amps

Facing Back is the best current sound (tried forward, up, down, left, right)

Really would like 4 10s they have been better to me in similar applications

Picture of space

MAX dimensions included with proposed design

I have allowed an additional 3" on each side for ports

You’re not happy with you subwoofers and enclosure because of the way it’s facing. Face the subwoofers up and you will smile. 

I did face them every way possible and this works the best for them,.

I would like to start over with new subs and new boxes 

open to any configuration that will work the best,

last 4 10s in a truck i had was facing up and ports to the side. it rocked, wish i could get 4 old school boston pro series

That’s what I’d recommend, subs up, ports facing each side. Getting new subwoofers will do very little for you when it comes to improvement. Building a better enclosure is the main thing you need to worry about for any type of output gain if you don’t want to upgrade your amp. There’s no need to upgrade your subwoofers if you’re not upgrading your amp. Pointless and there will be minimal gain. The enclosure if done correctly will make that system sound twice as loud and twice as good.

I agree with you 100% 

The reason for new subs and new boxes to replace what is in there is a value reason for one.

I can get the least total cost out of this deal by the sale of the current set. 

another point would not build a custom box for even a new set of what is in there now . no chance of repurchasing the same subs
