[jeeper07 5,000+ posts]

Well i am gettin a new car and it is a regular cab truck. I love my spl tho so i want to see if i can do any thing at all with some 8s or 10s maybe. I probably only have enough room for 2 and they need to be not too deep, but i have a lil room. Price is not THAT much of a factor and i have no amp so really im just lookin to see what smaller subs would be best

Aura makes some very shallow depth 8s, and Pioneer makes some shallow depth 10s. That's about all I can think of. The more room you can devote to the box the better. Your woofers can't do the work alone, after all.

you can even do 12's if you wanted depending on types and enclosures. pioneer has pretty decent shallow mount 12's. ported kicker solobaric 8's thump pretty good and are easy to do in a truck

Yeah, 3 8"s in a ported box. It was built by Noise Audio in Phoenix.

S8L5's or S8L7's get my vote. Amazing little suckers.

What is the max depth you have to work with? I'm currently running a single 8W7 in 1.03 @ 28Hz, and let me tell you, its hella loud!! I also just bought a Diamond CM3 which I plan on playing around with. I'm hoping to start a lil 8" driver collection and do my own personal "great 8 challenge"
