2.5 cubes what would you do

[JumpinBean23 10+ year member]

As the title states I have 2.5 cubes to work with for a center console box in an 04 ram quad cab. I have a planet audio rxd2400 for power, I am unsure of actual rms 1800-2000? Set up will be ported (32-34 htz) and music is mostly hip hop. With that in mind would multiple 8s or 10s be the best option or maybe just a single 12. I have gone back and forth with this and can't seem to make up my mind, so I will see what others have to say in the matter.

thought about doing 2 1508s. Or i could do 3-4 re8, I heard they do well in around .5 - .6 not sure which would be the better option

Id say look into a pair of 10s something like dc level 4 10s... tuned to around 33...

I second the two 10's. I'm a sucker for TREO, so for me I'd go w/the TREO SSi10.xx tuned to 35 Hz.

Kicker CVX 12 down fire if it will not fit width wise down firing I would do a cvx 10 set your gains right they will handle that power all day and sound ****ing great. Im not a kicker nut hugger but I am a fan of them and you will find they like to be tuned right where you want to especially the cvx 10

I have never dealt with planet audio amps before, I had people trashing it when I was asking questions previously so if it does rated or close to than that is a plus

10s seem to be winning, which was what I was gonna do in the first place, but then I started over thinking like always. Should have just stuck to my gut feeling!

2 DD 1508s would be awesome and would surprise the hell out of people when they listened to it.
