    Im having troubles getting a good mix of SQ and just plain old loud bass.. I have a 2000 GMC Sierra extended cab and I would like to keep the back seat available if possible. Right now I have a 12" Power Acoustik Fubar in about a .90 cubic foot sealed box and it sucks.. Obviously that sub needs more air space but with the limited amount of room I didnt really know what to do.

    So I guess my question is this: Should I go for a shallow mount set-up or does anyone else have any ideas?

    Amp: Pioneer 760 watt 4 channel..

    Sorry forgot to mention that I'd like to keep my amp and I can spend no more than 300..

    i heard a 15" fubar a while back and it was loud but SQ wasnt really up there but they're decent. your box is probably your issue.

    eD is a very solid product i have heard from everyone. i plan on ordering 4 13kv.2's. if it was me i would go for that sub, cause i was gonna get one for my truck but i was short on cash. so, instead of those i got a couple EHQS subs instead and they were a cheap, but effective product.

    those punch subs are junk, i have been told that the only Rockford subs that are worth buying are the power series.

    They have very good reviews. azn was using a 19Ov.2 before. I think even jonnyv713 has had some eD subs in the past.

    I'll be installing my 2 13Ov.2's this weekend. I'll try to post some vids so you can decide.
