Should sound nice, I haven't heard the SPXREF's but the SPXPROS are AMAZING for the money. Personally not a big fan of either Kenwood Amps nor Kicker subs, but that's just me

At least you know what you want (SPL vs SQ) and kickers get loud...

I want SQ out of my components(obviously) but SPL out of the subs.

Sweet! Especially considering they stopped making SPL components 5yrs ago - j/k

SPL and CVT shouldn't ever be put in the same sentence IMO

Nah.

But, figured I'd help ya out, being sympathetic to Bama fans and such haha

Box:
http://www.foxacoustics.com/ProductD...de=F150-210-04

$125

Subs:
http://cgi.ebay.com/PAIR-KICKER-CVR-...3%3A1|294%3A50

$158 for the Pair

Actually cheaper that way, and I'd bet those CVR's sound a lot better than the CVT's.

Thanks, I had always been told CVR's were too deep to fit under the seat though?

CVR's have 5 9/16" top mounting depth, and that box has 5 7/8" top mounting depth. They'll fit. Only draw back is 5/8" MDF instead of 3/4", but lets be honest, subs in our price range that will fit in any box we put under our back seats without seat lifts aren't going to destroy a well put together box. It's not like we are running 3 JLW7 15's or anything.

May I suggest Infinity Kappa 102.7's if you want to spend a few more pennys but don't like that box I linked? Their mounting depth is only 4 3/4", and I my roommate has two CVR's in his Dodge and mine kill his, so I'd bet they would be much better sounding than CVT's. They would fit in any box you found to go under our seats.

I don't mind that box, just trying to picture what it would look like with tan seats ya know? I'm getting camo seat covers, so it wouldn't be that big a deal. Where are the infinity's the best prices?

Look in my thread below this one entitled "couldn't be happier" and you will see exactly what it looks like haha, just put all my stuff in Friday.

I got the Infinitys for $200 for the pair on eBay.
