Ok thanks. yeh, ill eventually start looking into designs to build my own custom box, but for now this thing slams for a prefab enclosure and ima hang on to it. The SQ and loudness is actually very good. This isn't some random prefab box I got online, jl designed this enclosure specifically for...

it will still sound good

Yeh i don't if i could do that with this box. Here is a pic and the port is over the subwoofer in the same direction.

I am currently running Jl's HO110 w6v3 in my 01 ext cab tacoma. This truck has limited space so there are only so many options for subwoofers. Right now I have the sub directly behind the drivers side with the sub face and port facing the otherside of the truck behind the passenger seat. I'm...

I'm running type r 6x8s right now off of 75w rms and they sound great

I would recommend the one I've been using for years alpines cde 141. I only spent 100$ On it and it does everything I need it to do, plug my iPhone in with usb and play music while charging it. I think it's only 2v preamp output, but whatever, just turn gains up a tad more. Anyways, the headunit...

1 jl 10 w6v3 in the ho box powered by a alpine mrv 500. 75w x 4 sound ordnance powering my type r 6x8s and type s 6x8 coaxials in rear. This is in my ext cab tacoma which has limited space so one sub is perfect for me, it sounds very good and can get down.

I have one 8" JL W3v3 for sale

Idk I'm running just one 8 w3 and it has more than enough bass for me and the quality is very good. Everyone has their own opinion and yeh it isn't going to shake the neighborhood, it is an 8 after all. The box I have for my w3 makes it sound very good so it's just going to come down to the box...

Or since my headunit puts out 2v per output the amp does the same?

I don't have a meter right now and was wondering how much voltage was going from my sound ordnance m4075 rca output into my sub mono amp? I have it wired this way because I'm currently using the head units rear/sub preamp output for my rear speakers.

I currently don't have a meter so I'm setting gains by ear using test tones. My headunit goes to 35 so I keep max volume at 26-27. With all my eq and boost BS set to zero/min, I'll pull my rear rca and set front speakers to distortion then back down and vice versa. Same for the sub, using 1khz...

Yeh I'll eventually get some splitters. As of right now leaving my hu sub ctrl at 0 while setting sub gain, will I miss out on any output? I'm guessing the hu is just putting out less voltage so the gain will compensate for that.

Last thing I have been thinking about. Since my headunit subwoofer control will adjust my rear speakers along with the sub, I basically will have to leave it at zero at all times and set gains with it on zero. Will this affect my overall sub output? Will this mean that my gain in my amp will be...

Haha alright cool that's what I thought just was thrown off when you said run the rear at full.
