My Project

my friend at work had a sub under his seat and fired it up after i told him it was a bad idea. he did it anyway and his sub was crushed every time someone sat in the seat.

he built it too close to the seat. the other way around you can get away with sitting on it and not hurting the sub,and gain that space they need.

 

whoa......

 

with your situation, maybe it would be best to have the subs downfiring.

 

a safe way other than downfiring? you could go with a smaller box so the subs won't touch the seat but then your box area will be really small.

Maybe some of the box designers would be willing to help out. G3, azn, ranger and electro want to give it a shot?

they would need your max measurements for the box.

To me though, downfiring would be the way to go.

 

or here's a box for 2 10's downfiring. Probox makes some awesome boxes. Pedro loves his probox and he hit in the 140's with just 1 10" kicker L5.

or look how my friend has his L5's in his 2003 silverado the encloser is the seat butt it ****in subs we jus ported it no that long ago and dammm

 

oh! have you looked into shallow mount subs,or have you made your purchase?

 

ok well dont let me burst your bubble the cvr subs arnt that good man ya there kicker but not good ones. if you wanna stay with kicker you wanna get the 06cvx122 its a lil bit more than the cvr but god damn that will sound so much better and you want 2 so if if was me i would buy an autotec amp get the autotek ss1500.1d that will power those subs great and you will be in bussiness.

two 10s in an optimal enclosure will most likely be louder than two 12s in a non optimal box

 

I dont mean to just jump in but like Pedro was saying about shallows, they arnt bad, i use them and ive got 2 Kicker CVT 12's. O've also heard 2 12" CVR's and in my opinion the shallows are better by alot. I dont know if they are as good as the CVX as i havnt heard them. Also CVT's are cheap enough for your budget still. You can get the 4Ohms for like 70 bucks on ebay.

guaranteed to slam

 

^^^ Agreed that sub pounds pretty good for a shallow

 

SQ10...DON'T BUY IT!!!

Please don't buy it...it is the only bad product I've had experience with eD.

Powerhandling specs are overrated...realistically 100 watts is all you need...more than that you run into mechanical problems. They sound good and have decent output with the power inputed. The coil could take 300 watts I'm sure...but the suspension can take it.

 

you could use cardboard to mock up an enclosure instead of wood.

dont be put off by 10's. i get decent out put out of 1 10.
