Help picking which subwoofer to use!

[Kohen36]

I have a 2008 tundra crewmax and i can’t decide between 2 soundqubed hds3.2 10” or 2 Subdown SA 10” or the American bass xfl’s.Which do y’all think would be better and have more flex?

Where are they going in the vehicle?

Behind the rear seats but it’s a crewmax so the rear seats can scoot up

Honestly I would do the HDS3.2 Since they redid them and the HDS2 I like them now.

How much power will you be running and what is your maximum mounting depth?

 

[Kohen36]

Bottom mounting depth is 11” and around 2k or as much as I can push with stock electrical.

For stock electrical I would stick to a 2.5 inch voice coil drivers so in your case either the SA classic edition or the HDS2.

Agreed. I don't really care for SPL brands but I like the newer revisions of soundqubeds korean amps and subwoofer linup. Upgraded higher temp voice coils, looser suspensions, and much better response curve for daily setups.

So you think the soundqubed hds310” will perform better than a sundown SA 10?

Also how much would I need to do to be fine with running 3in voice coils because I would want to get the hds3.2 if possible.My dad has a tundra (newer than mine) but is running a digital designs 2500 watt amp in stock electrical

I've had both and the xfl is better imo. I'm talking about Soundqubed vs xfl. I ran the Sa too, but never liked them. Mine are the older ones, the newer Sa version might be better?

The thing with electrical is you can buy the highest RMS subs you want and the highest RMS amplifiers you want but at the end of the day if your car only has 40 or 50 amps of available power then its kinda pointless.

That's why with stock electrical I think you would be better trying to power a pair of 2.5 in coils (better thermal compression and it won't be as obvious that the sub is being underpowered versus same power but on a pair of 3 inch voice coils)

There's no since in me talking your ear off because you will pick whichever one you like. You have to listen to all of them for yourself. I sometimes don't like the most popular sub that everyone is raving about. People will tell you to stay away from skar, but I don't have a problem with them. You have plenty to choose from. You have Skar svr, ddx, evl, toro fierce, Kicker cwq, and Blackbrick heavy hitter. Try some of the cheaper stuff unless you believe in Sundown that much.

I like the XFL as well. Also take a look at the VFL10. I've heard one and it is a great sub.
