Shallow Subs Need Help

[white4d96]

Money isnt easy to make. I know it may be cheaper and most guys here dont believe in low end but at least you would have some beat. I personally have seen a few of those trucks but never with any type of system so definitely post up pics of the install. I know there may be some out there with installs but I myself have yet to see one personally.

This is true, but if the money from those two subs and amp are 1/3 of the way to the other gear, wouldn't it be shrewd to just keep saving and get what you want?

Just guesstimating since last time I got an estimate for 1508's they were $150 apiece, then a decent amp to push them, maybe $2-400?

haha yes women break your wallet especially when it comes to money for your install. might be good to save up for that install and while saving do some deadening a bit at a time. This would ensure the best sound when you do finish and you will be highly proud when you get the install completed.

yea i mean if you think about it in the long run you will have aucually saved money because you would have to buy the 1st then sell it for mabyee 3/4 of what you got it for if youre lucky. and damn women why are they soo good at making me spend money

ied try this set up, about the same price n should be better equipment also

amp = http://www.woofersetc.com/p6401/KAC8104D--...t-Amplifier.htm

sub = http://www.woofersetc.com/p2848/DS12D4--Di...l-Subwoofer.htm

ive heard that kenwood amp is good, n diamond subs are pritty good also

that system will be prolly less cost wise n should sound alot better too

ive personally heard 2 of these http://www.woofersetc.com/p6394/TSSW301--P...t-Subwoofer.htm on a mtx 1501d n they hit lows pritty good n got pritty loud also in a small box

if i was u ied make the box liek a downfire but face it twards the back of the cab n give the sub around 2'' of recess legs n u can angle the back of the box to conture with the seat n mount the amp on other side n should be good to go

if u have it faceing seat u'll have issues with cone surround rubbing n what knot but the rear faceing downfire type box could n should yeald better output, ive heard a setup with that pioneer 12 like this n it sounded pritty good n u'll have no worries with seat hittin sub

heres a vid of that pioneer in action to give u an idea

Alrighty so i have a good friend in a similar situation and i suggested Fi SSD 10's to him... how would that compare to the 1508's? it's like 6" or so mounting depth

I would try the like $40 hifionics subs at sonicelectronix.com, if you have the room to fit them plus there rated 600W 300RMS i was thinking about getting some

Hello, im Kevin lately i have been thinking of adding a system to my 1990 4wd Isuzu PUP std. cab. I have been wondering about shallow mount subs and how good they hit im thinking of these Kenwoods http://www.crutchfield.com/p_113KFCWS12/Ke...S12.html?tp=111 on a VERY! tight budget

this is the amp http://www.crutchfield.com/p_158ZZR3301/So...301.html?tp=115 me and a friend of mine are going to be building the box

Thanx

I played around with the shallows for a good year. I ran the pioneer shallow subs back in 2008 that could take 350rms. the ones that had the silver middle cone and black cone. I ran 4 in my single cab truck and they did hit very well for shallow subs. I never got the chance to port them, but in sealed box they did a 143db on the audio shop, "this was done on a AC meter so the reading is not 100% but can give you somewhat of an idea atleast"
