I’ve ran a ton of subs in my Jeep Patriot and I’m having a hard time telling what I like best. 8s, 10s and 12s ive used so far in this vehicle and I’ve liked all of them for music. Im having a 15 built for me now that I’m trying next, but I already know I will like it. I’m leaning towards doing 1 really nice 15 inch sub for my daily music setup and a box with 8 lower power 10s on 3k just to meter with. I’ve also found that it seems to be louder with sub up port back orientation, but I like the actual sound of music better with the same subwoofers when both sub and port are rear fired, so I will likely do sub up port back on the 10s for metering and sub and port back on my daily music enclosure.
I've found that to be true in a lot of SUV's, just depends on the size of the SUV and how many subs and power. Sometimes a single, very capable, high powered woofer is very good for daily. Something like a 1500w 15, or even a 3kw 15.
