Which do yall think is a better value? Better SQ? Overall? The Infinity Reference 1040 10" sub gets great reviews on Crutchfield.com and is really priced low right now. I've always heard good JL Audio systems in friends cars and the w1v2 10" would fit nicely behind the seat of my regular cab...

I am looking for two 8" subwoofers,

What is the mounting depth on that sub? I could not find that on the RE site, also how much cubic footage of air space do they need?

I have 2 Eclipse SE8363 3-way 6.5" speakers in the doors and 2 Eclipse SE8465A 2-way 4x6" speakers in the rear pillars. The highs and midbass are really clean with those speakers, but they need some bass, i.e. subwoofer.

Thank you all for the recommendations. I cannot consider the Image Dynamic IDQ subwoofers because they do not come in an 8" model and they are too deep for my regular cab pickup. I am considering the 8" v.3 model though. I have read good things about Image Dynamics. However, I am looking for...

I need a good single subwoofer for my regular cab 1996 GMC Sierra. I had 2 Rockford P2 10" subwoofers in a home built 3/4" MDF box and it sounded really good with all music: country, rock, alternative, rap, etc. They were powered by an Alpine MRP-350 amp. However, the depth of the subs...

Wow, sorry to see that, but you seem to be taking it well. I hope you're right handed?

I hope those are two trees....

what's the purpose of frying amps? seems pointless to me.

Thanks, I have been lurking and searching and trying to learn as much as I can. I am a rookie at all this.

What is wrong with using the "Loud" option on the head unit? How is the "Loud" option different than just turning up the EQ settings?

Ok, I have my system hooked up. It consists of 2 10" Rockford P2s and an MTX Thunder 3401 amp. Whenever the volume is turned all the way down on the Pioneer p6700mp deck, the subs go "thump" and the amp's cooling fan is noisy as hell. I will prolly send it back to Crutchfield as this amp really...
