I had a single RDS 6.5 in a ported box and a 6th order bandpass. Really nice sounding little sub.

Id choose the sundown from that list. The Memphis isn’t a bad choice either. Never seen the nemesis yet, but it looks decent. Is this a custom box, or a prefab?

You getting a prefab box or getting one built?
My opinion, if going 6.5’s in a crew cab, I would do 4. Four dual 2 ohm subs to be able to wire to a 1 ohm load. As far as power, you doing any electrical upgrades?

Will a 6th order be possible under the seat?

Will be going on a built box just need to purchase subs first also I really don’t want 4 subs I just want enough bass to where it will sound nice inside the cab I upgraded all my door speakers and tweeters to alpine type R will be running a Jl amp to push that but still need to buy one for the subs depending what I go for

Gotcha. If you could have the height clearance, I would do a pair of SSA f8L 8’s. Only need about 1.1 cubes net. But if you’re stuck on 6.5” subs, either the rds or dd subs will be fine.

2 DD 506 in 1 cube at 36hz worked well in my truck. Had 1-1500w on them at any given point

But I'd also suggest 4 unless you are gonna do some fancy box or the top end performers with decent power backing them up.

I would suggest these. 4 of them would cost you about $280 total. The Sundown SIA1750 would be a great match @ 2 ohms.

Will a 6th order be possible under the seat?

Possibly. The problem with trucks is that the seat drops down to 4.5 inches of clearance on the back end. 3 inches on the inside after wood thickness is taken into account. I may have to try to design and build one to find out. I just finished an under seat box for 3 8s a couple weeks ago and was thinking that I may try a parallel 6th for 6.5s under a seat.

I did a box for dual 6.5 inch Savard subs a couple months back. He had them in a prefab sealed box and they weren’t performing very well. Putting them in a decent box made those little subs sing. Savard is worth a look. They make really nice subwoofers.
