Posted August 2, 200817 yr So Im doing my first truck, a 2nd gen s10, and was what size subs would sound good in an ext cab?
August 2, 200817 yr Author 6 DP21's? Now thats just silly, unless I enclose the whole truck bed...hmmmThe DP21's would be nice if I had the room but Im just not sure how I could set them without something so big just looking tacky
August 2, 200817 yr well give us more to help with space, music type, budget, Equitment that you already have if thats the case.
August 2, 200817 yr Author Well its a 2000 s10 with an extended cab. Right now it has a stock HU in it but im slamming a P-NAV512 into her. As for budget, well I have no budget. As for music its pretty much punk.
August 2, 200817 yr As for budget, well I have no budget.In that case I would get two Focal Utopias in a sealed enclosure, or maybe an Aura NS or two
August 2, 200817 yr Critical Mass...But really, measure the height, width and depth that you would be willing to have a box take up and then we can really narrow your choices down.
August 2, 200817 yr Author As for budget, well I have no budget.In that case I would get two Focal Utopias in a sealed enclosure, or maybe an Aura NS or two I was actually looking at the focal 33wx but at 600 watts they are as powerful as i would like but the re. of 3.3 ohms is well...yea
August 2, 200817 yr Author Yea shizz ya gonna have to give me a couple days to get those measurements as I wont have my truck back til wednesday...getting the heads machined
August 2, 200817 yr nice! well while you wait, how much room visually would you want to take up?You dont use the cab for any tools do ya or anything else?Can you afford to use the entire width and depth of the cab?Also, how far up you think u can go? To the headrest? All the way up like a wall? Maybe just a couple feet?
August 2, 200817 yr Author I have the whole cab to use. I dont want to go quite as high as the headrest, nothing above the window line. Only cuz in changing out the seats with ones from a 4runner.
August 2, 200817 yr Author everything is stock at the moment. Im starting with the HU pnav-512 then subs, amps the front stage. So basically im building evrything around the subs
August 4, 200817 yr Author ok, how much power and what speakers are you using for your front stage?For the front stage im going with the SLC 365 kick from rainbow audio amped with a iPaul 4.300 also from rainbow audio Edited August 4, 200817 yr by Booosh

I don't know what you mean to say by stating the Re. All 4 ohm subs have an Re around there.
August 4, 200817 yr I read the post after KU40 quoted it and I realized it wasn't the power handling you were miffed about, but the DCR...that's even less of a concern than the power handling is
August 5, 200817 yr I think 2 Rl-i 10s and a Sundown 100.4 would be nice and build your own box lazy ass, stop lookin for em online haha
August 5, 200817 yr Author and build your own box lazy ass, stop lookin for em online hahaYou are more than welcome to come over and build my box as I sit there and watch you while I drink some beer.
