i'm new to this site..

i've put up 2 posts but nobody has gotten back to me?? but i might be asking the impossible..lol.. see i'm tryin to get some input on how to hide subs in my 04 suburban without the big *** box.. i'm also wonderin if i'd get more bass out of a set of 12's over my 10's or if a single sub would be better?? i've read quite a few threads and if anyone can point me to someone that can help me out that'd be cool.. any ideas would help either way! i'm also thinkin i might have to upgrade my amps to get the sound i want?? once again.. any ideas would help with that?? either way i'd like a bit more bass.. here's what i got and how it's set up..

eclipse 8455 hu

focal 165 k2p's upgraded version (front)

focal 130 cv1's (rear doors)

focal 25 a1's (subs- ported box)

audison srx 2s (to the k2p's)

audison srx 3 (rear doors/subs)

right now i've got awesome mid bass and highs but it's lacking in the low end and i'd really like to balance the whole thing out.. as i said it's all in an 04 suburban so i'd like to keep the sub box to a minimum.. if possible??

any ideas??? thanks!

Several vendors make shallow subs now.

What power/space do you have?

I can get a 8, 10, 12 pretty loud...it all depends

the srx3 puts about 300 to the sub wich isn't alot.. but it's really clean.. i've got about 4'x3' for space behind the 3rd row of seats.. i'd like to keep a bit of it if possible??

thanks for answering.. i'm just trying to figure out how to get into the replies?? lol i'm kinda computer stupid! lol

i'd actually like to stick with focal.. but i was thinking the 27kx's.. my dilema is the srx3 won't push em hard enough to make much difference.. unless i can find someone to buy my srx 2s and srx 3 along with the 25 a1's?? then i'd probably look into an audison lrx 5.1k and a set of 27 kx's.. anyone heard what that set up would be like??

I am downifiring my two 8s....makes it much easier in trucks/suvs where space is at a premium.

thanks..

now i just gotta decide if i wanna go bigger?? with a downfire box i've got alot more room to work with.. it looks like about a 4x3 area and if i match the height to the rear seats when they're folded down it should be awesome.. and hidden!! which is my main concern?!

OT- But does a downfiring box muffle the sound at all?

not if it is done correctly.

im sure it does to some minimum, but nothing is perfect
