Image Dynamics and Dayton Titanik seem to be getting good reviews. I'm gettin 18's so I'm not going in that direction.

If your truly looking for an SQ setup, you should talk to JimJ, he seems to be the local ca.com sq specialist.

thanks for all the input, My truck is just a 2500hd crew cab.

its so wierd, if you go to the local shop ect. everyone talks about JL this KICKER that you know. all the name brands. Its crazys how many off brands ( not that their bad) there are in the audio world.

I have always ran kicker is my cars, but wanted to branch out and do something differant.

Ps. Are sq boxes normally sealed or ported?

sealed

all those brands have different woofers to suit your need..i wouldnt recommend an RE MT for sw..but more likely an SE or RE..an fiq wouldl suit you very well and get loud while sounding awesome..and audioque i wouldnt reccomend for sq at all unless you want to hear motor noise..but they do get insanely loud

X2 SSD's are great subs for the price.

Sq boxes depend on the design. I've seen sq installs both sealed and ported (and infinite baffle of course //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif )

a guy here at my work did some kicker I think comp vr's but he did 4 10's in a quad cab ram 1500 and you cant even see them it sounds nice and I was amazed that they where able to get 4 10's in the back of a ram truck with it still looking factory

??? Are you serious? Digital designs ,DC audio, audioque? None of these companies make a sub that would be considerded SQ.

Better looking at Fi, image dynamics, JL

IDQ or ID Max. Maybe JBL WGTi if you got the mounting depth. SSA Icon, or Fi Q or if you can wait a while and check out the new SI Mag but I believe its only coming in 12's
