I am dying to see more. Drooling.

Hmmm, well why not go with 2 12" BLs ported in that case? JMHO though.

LOL

I am off to his part of the forum now to see if I can find it.

budget wise, it is fairly open.....I figure around $400 per component set, already have a RF1000.1 amp and a RF400.4 amp. I always think bigger is better when it comes to some stuff, so I plan on about a 250 amp alt roughly and obviously big 3. A nice new batt under the hood is a given. As for what speakers I plan to use, I am still lookin...not 100% on what I would like to run with. Head unit wise....I am lookin at one of the newer Kenwood double din touchscreen dvd players (the 700 series I beleive it is). I'm pretty sure no one will ever sit in the center of the rear seat....so I am almost tempted to try to do a little center console for the rear that will contain the subs. So a thing in Truckin' some months back where a UFC fighter did one in his truck and it just sits on the ground and goes up into the center portion. Roughly, I am looking around a total of about $6k or so range in the short range budget....room for future adjustments.

ah hell, i will take some measurements tomorrow before i go to work.....but if i do them under the seat I will probably put in a 3" raiser for the seat to give them a little more room.

I was more SPL, but to be honest, its not like I would really ever compete, so its not 100% all that important. I am going to do some estimated weight tests to get a rough idea of the weight difference of putting subs under the seat vs a blowthrough, not sure how huge of an impact it would be...i just dont want it to totally drain the performance of the truck. just leaving work, so please excuse my slow response as I am bout to head to the homestead.

Soooo, some stupid drugged up moron stole a truck on the other side of my neighborhood....while running from the cops he plowed right through my truck and totalled it completely....right after just getting it ready to put a system in a blowthrough. Sooo, now I am pimpin a nice newer 2008 F150 FX2 (bright red)....it is pretty sexy....anyway, I dont think I really want to do a blowthrough anymore. This truck looks more like a performance truck, so I am thinkin of just putting some subs under the back seats (4 dr) to keep the weight down a little. I have never sat in a truck that had subs under the seats......how do they sound and can they get decently loud? again, this kinda thing is new to me so any input would be great. not to sure what will fit at the moment, but some ideas on subs would be great too. i listen to literally everything....opera, rock, rap, metal, EVERYTHING. At the moment I am eyeballin' some of those newer oval Boston subs, but other input would be great.

Yeah, think I will go with the 15's, now if I can just try to come up with a design for the box, never did that before.

x2.....some people swear by some speakers, like the RE XXX comp set, I think they sound horrible...its all what your ears like.

I was thinkin, would i need to build something like a funnel around the box of my subs leading up to the cuthrough in my truck to make optimal use of output from my subs......or would it be okay to just put the box few inches back from the wall of the truck?

internal volume with the T2's is 3.2....the only reason it is tuned that high is because it was tuned to RF T2 specs. I am thinking of just saying screw T2's all together and go with the Fi line, stupid RF rep keeps freaking me out about going to an internet based company though.....lol, probably cause he just wants me to buy his crap.

yeah you need to keep it updated, it makes me respect you guys more, didn't realize it could be so intense.

so i am thinkin of using an excessive amperage alternator and would like to know how many of you use their alts and how good are they.... thanxxx

my friend gave me a box that had his 2 15" RF T2's in it. I am pretty sure it is 3.2 cubes after displacement and tuned to 38hz or so. Would it be okay to put some Fi BLs into this box or no? Tryin to save a little money and want good output. Or should I just throw 2 more T2's into that box and use it?
