    If you can fit Sundown SD3s, they're hard to beat for small sealed applications but need correct airspace. I'm using a single 10 in my truck with about 600 worms on it and it leaves nothing to be desired.

    The magnets are on the fat side, so if you're just trying to drop something into what you have, keep that in mind (as well as airspace - the 12 needs a cubic foot for each one while the 10 only needs a half cube).

    Yeah, SAs are beasts. I heard a pair of sealed 15s a couple weeks ago in a little Honda Fit and OFMG :eek:. If I only had the space.

    Do you use the back seat for passengers? On a regular basis? If not, then I would suggest constructing a custom box, using the actual seat base and shape. Basically create your own stealth box. I had one many years ago in a Dodge Ram that replaced the center seat. Mount this box hinged just like the current seat is. And cover the box with small amount of foam and transfer the factory seat cover. Essentially creating a hard seat. Mounts the subs firing down in this box.

    This is a much better option than cutting etc. and you can easily go back to stock if you save the factory seat bases.

    3 or 4 10s may work better in this configuration due to depth.

    Heh, go big or go home. Looks like it needs a LOT more port volume though.

    Now yer talkin'. That'd give you 3 times the space you'd have with stock seats.

    Oh, it'll work, but your tuning frequency might not be where you'd like it. 2 subs in the same airspace is less than ideal as well. What software did you use?

    Huh. And it's tuned almost right at Fs. Here I sit eating my words according to Torres, but would probably try something like WinISD for a 2nd opinion. Those subs are really high Qts, so that just might work nicely. It's already built though, so one way to find out. Can't wait to hear what you think. I wish I had 11 cubes to work with.
