Wow, not sure why you posted all that extraneous stuff from the website...and then did it a second time too. You may want to edit your posts and remove all that stuff, as it is very annoying.

The box looks really nice, but I do see one problem with the design. The 12" Kicker CVT's call for a minimum box volume of 1.0-4.6 cubic feet per speaker. That box only has 0.46 cubic feet per speaker. I don't really know how this will affect the sound output, but I would think that, if anything, it will decrease the amount of power you can put through them. Maybe someone else here can tell you if the box being too small will have an effect. This requirement is actually the reason I went with the Rockford Fosgates instead of the Kickers.

Here is a box you might want to check out.
http://musicmooseaudio.com/ford_f_150f.html

This box will allow you to run two 10's or 8's if you choose and has
Custom Built with 5/8" MDF Construction
Dual, Sealed .635 Cu. Ft. Per Chamber
Mounting Depth: 5-1/2" Inches
You could put in for example
JL w1's
Alpine SWS-1023D's
Rockford Fosgate Stage 1's

Here is an ebay link to the same company selling them on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=its%3DS%252BI





I just ordered this one for my truck and I will be getting it in today.

I got it from them on ebay though for $115 + $49 in shipping.

I am still saving some money for some subs to put in them (probably JL W3's) but I can take some pics if you want.

x2 on gettin rid of everything there.

Actually, the mechanical power handling would increase.... But depth in frequencies would suffer. And thats already going to be a bit of an issue because its a shallow mount subwoofer.

Aint nothing.

Just think there is more of a vacuum or pressure because the air doesnt have as much area to compress. Therefore, it takes more power to get the same excursion...

Theres more to it but thats just easy to think...

Thanks

I went ahead and got 2 10" 's going to try to get installed this weekend. I am going to have them run on a Rockford p3002 Bridge to 4 ohm? Any ideas on getting the most out of them.

This is the box that I've been using for about a year now. I have two tens in it and I'm very happy with it. I got it for $139 shipped on ebay from them.

Thats the right way... But a bigger amp would help a Sh*t ton.

Hey wakebrdr142 do you have any pics of the sub box. I was wondering on how well it fits in the truck and how it looks. This would be helpful if you could snap a few pics. Also how long did it take to get the box shipped. thanks
