As my first post said. 1 10" ported. I was thinking 1 10w3 honestly. I had 2 jl 10w0v3 under the seats of a 2007 dodge ram quad cab they got plenty loud but lacked the impact I was looking for. I had a cp108 8w3 in jl ported box in a 2011 gmc sierra reg same problem in lacking impact. I don't need SPL I want more SQ but want to rock when I turn it up. I don't need 140dbs anymore to be happy. I have been looking at those sound Qubed subs in the SSA store. I'm not seeing any box specifications for any of these subs. So that HDS10 with 300 watts? What size of ported box? I listen to old school hip-hop and rap, heavy rock, 70's rock. I just want it to sound good and give me enough spl to be happy. These HDS 10's look good. But half of RMS? I know about tuning and such just wondering if it will get moving with half of RMS?

I was really leaning toward the IA I 10". Which American bass sub? I don't know why I'm afraid of sundown not because of failure I just am afraid of them

Ok so i have narrowed down my search to JL 10w1v3, sundown e10, or id10v3. They are all very similiar in price. Please don't bash jl saying they overpriced and the such. I would like real opinions on these subs. I have .63ft^3 before displacement for each sub. There is no other box or anything like that. This is what i have and im gonna use. I have a jl xd 500/3 that I can use. That amp would be fine for the id10's or the jl. The sundowns would need a bigger amp i realize that. All of this is in a 2007 ram 1500 quad cab. I have a prefab atrend bbox under the rear seats. I know this site is very sundown and ssa heavy in recomendations but the dcon is out of my price range and I don't really want to buy a new amp. I will if it comes down to it though. I have modeled them out on win isd and they are all very similar in response curve and spl curve. The id10 modeled out the best of all of them.

Hey guys I haven't a system like this ever. I have http://www.atrendusa.com/bbox/vehicle-specific-carpeted/dodge?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=203&category_id=59. So only like .6ft^3 each. I need some subs that are no more than say $130 each and will work with 250-300 each. I thought about reusing my amp the jl xd 500/3 300x1 at 2 ohm. But I don't think that will be enough power for 2 subs. I need to watch the mounting depth as well. No more than 5.75" with vented pole piece. I thought about JL 10w1v3 or 10w3v3. Im not a big fan of jl subs but they work great in this enclosure size. It is going in a 2007 dodge ram 1500 quad cab. I know that it is a prefab box and two sealed 10's but im just looking for a good sound and not very expensive. I used to be into the custom ported boxes and bass that would rattle your fillings loose just not anymore. Im poor now and have gotten away from spending all kinds of money on car audio

I already have the box for my truck it is 2 10's.

I have a 2007 ram quad cab. I bought a set of hertz energy esk 165.5 comps. I was just thinking about deadening my doors. I emailed don as sds I really don't want to go to that much hassle. I know that you can't seal the door and such. I just was wondering if second skin is any good to put a little deadener on the door. I have not ever deadened a door did a few trunk lids in my day but have never had this nice of front component set.

Ok so I go to my favorite store locally and research what brands they have. I go in today with my list. I wanted 2 jl audio 10w1v3, hertz dieci 6.5" comps, Kenwood x998, all dash kits and that stuff. So they had a big sale this weekend and were out of 10w1v3's and dieci comps. So I end up buying two jl 10w0v3 and hertz energy esk 165.5. I got all my stuff with tax and head unit and dash kit and interface for my truck. $596 total Kenwood x998 $199 jl audio 10w0v3 $75x2 hertz energy esk 165.5 $150 stinger RCA cables Pac dodge interface $65

Ok I so I bought this truck a month and ago. It is a 2007 ram quad cab 1500. Basic 17" wheels and base stereo with a powerseat. I bought the 20" wheels and tires that you see on it. The wheels were $325 for the set. I work for a car dealership and got the tires for $500. 275/55/20. My plans are: 1. stereo system 2. lower it 3. cold air intake 4. Just in the mean time take the nerf bars off and all the badges are removed. Oh yeah the system is in my signature but here ya go. Kenwood x998 Hertz energy esk 165.5 comps Hertz deici 130.3 coax rear fill Jl XD500/3 80x2 for the fronts and 300x1 at 2ohms for the subs Jl 10w0v3 svc 4 x2 I also got the HU installed tonight but ill get pictures of it tomorrow

I'm not buying 12's. I went with jl audio 10w0v3 or 10w1v3. I have the w0's now but can return them and get the w1 which is what I may do.

I probably will. It won't be anything special though. It will take me some time to get it all put in.

I felt like those were the best prices. I haven't seen this stuff priced anywhere close online.

The mounting depth of my box is 6.75" so that gives me almost 2"

Well today is the day. I'm gonna go try to pick up the rest of my equipment. See my sig for details unless someone makes a good case. I am buying the jl 10w1v3 4 for $100 each.

Lift up those seats and take a pic and show what is under them. If it is all like my old ranger we may be in business

Here is the model with 2 subs in boxes about the right size with 1 watt of power the gain and spl tab.

When I did 1 watt all it changed was the db level. The freq response was exactly the same. Do you want the gain tab showing or what? Also they are in .58 boxes roughly.

Well here they are modeled. I used one sub per and 150 watts. Box size based on my .63 minus displacements roughly from my memory. Also I have been doing this a long time but never truly understood the T/S parameters of a sub. Care to explain what you were talking about? BTW thanks for everyones help and input. I visit multiple sites and this thread has the best answers of any of them. Most are like just take out your backseat and put a 15" or why not 2 12's or other stuff im not even gonna consider. I am using 2 tens sealed with 300 watts for now. That is subject to change though. Depending on which subs I buy also

Not so much when you compare all the specs such as QTS and VAS. You are only looking at Price and RMS values. The JL woofer requires much less space per woofer. If you have done the work already and the ID modeled the best then go for it. Do you mind posting the graphs from each woofer? Well i can when i get home. Ill just screenshot them correct?

I am stuck between the jl 10w1v3 and id10 v3. they are very comparable.

My dealer buddy told me I can buy the 10w1v3 for $100 each. That is $79 cheaper than the id10. Basically the same money as the sundown e v2.
