Possible subs for '04 Dodge Ram Quad Cab?

[maddog808 10+ year member]

I'm trying to put something together for this truck. I need to go under the back seat, 'cause I can't remove it...kids, etc. I'm more interested in SQ than SPL. Listen to about 60% rock, 40% rap. I want to go with 2 10's or 2 12's. I'm just worried that I don't have enough volume for 2 12's. I was looking at some Eclipse SW7200's that need .5 to 1.5 sealed. This box claims 2.0 cubic feet, but is it any good?

This box only has 1.8 cubic feet, but a lot of people swear by this Fox guy when it comes to the Quad Cab Dodge. Would this be enough air to get the most from the 7200's?

Or would I be better off going with 2 10's that don't need as much air maybe in a box like this...also 1.8 cubic feet?

Maybe something along the lines of (2)JLW6V2's?

I'm looking to use a 1200 watt RMS mono sub amp stable @ 1 ohm for whatever setup I go with. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Lot's of knowledge on this forum. Iv'e been searching for awhile, but still need some help. I thought I was going with (2) L5's or L7's, but I heard they are really loud, but don't sound that great.

I'm pretty sure my limitations are:

7 inches mounting depth

1.8-2.0 cubic feet sealed

6.5 inches magnet width

I had one of the Ebay boxes and it was not nearly as large a volume as they claimed it to be. The Fox box is supposed to be a good one, and although I dont know much about those Eclipse subs I am sure they will probably work fine in that kind of enclosure size.

I would take a look at a pair of ID12s or IDQ12v3 too, sound awesome and get pretty loud, and fit the depth requirements of these enclosures.

word... i made a fiberglass enclosure that is 1 cube and takes the place of the lower half of the center seat. i have 1 12" sub downfiring and it gets loud and the soundstage seems more realistic than having subs under the rear seat.
