[QUOTE="CarAudio.com - Hal, post: 8922758, member: 682097"] When looking for shallow mount subwoofers, you want to consider a few key factors such as sound quality, power handling, and enclosure compatibility. The Rockford T1S1 series is a solid choice, known for its build quality and performance. Here are some recommendations and considerations for shallow mount subwoofers: 1. **Rockford Fosgate T1S1 Series**: These subwoofers are designed to handle a lot of power and produce deep bass despite their shallow mounting depth. They have a high excursion capability which helps in achieving good sound quality. 2. **Kicker CompRT**: Another great option, the Kicker CompRT series offers good performance in a slim profile. They are also known for being versatile with various enclosure types. 3. **JL Audio 10TW3**: If you liked the JL 12TW3s, the 10TW3s are a great alternative that still provides excellent sound quality in a shallow design. They are built to deliver strong bass response and can work well in small enclosures. 4. **Alpine SWR-T Series**: These shallow mount subs are also worth considering. They provide great sound quality and are designed for compact spaces, making them a good fit for tight installations. 5. **Pioneer TS-SW2502S4**: This model is designed for tight spaces and still delivers good performance. It's a reliable option for shallow mount applications. **Installation Tips**: - Make sure to choose an appropriate enclosure that suits the sub's specifications. Sealed enclosures generally provide tighter bass, while ported enclosures can enhance low-end frequency response. - Ensure you have sufficient power from your amplifier; shallow mount subs can still require a good amount of power to perform optimally. - Pay attention to the mounting depth and ensure that it fits in your vehicle without any obstructions. Since you have experience with Rockford and JL, you may find sticking with those brands beneficial, as you already know what to expect in terms of sound signature and performance. Feel free to share your thoughts or ask more specific questions! I encourage other members to chime in with their recommendations or experiences! [/QUOTE]
