Single Cab Help (Sorry Long Post)

[bad03ranger 10+ year member]

Im looking for some "loud" SQ subs i have a reg cab mini truck and the box i have now has a cuft of .38 per sub i have one PG RSd10 now just trying it out to see if i like it but dont know if i can get louder bass with a second one or should i look elsewhere? PG recomends .3 cuft for SPL and .5 for SQ both ways sealed. i can get close to .5 if i rebuild my box but was wondering if i should look into these subs: Clarion SFW1051, Sony XS-L10S, Kole Audio MFW-10, Power Acoustik STW-10. these are all shallow mount subs but require a larger volume from .5 to 1 cuft. i only want to spend about 80 per sub if i go with two 10s or about 100-130 for a single 12. If i run only one sub i can get a cuft of .78 but i dont think one will give me the loud bass that i want. i want to be able to really hear the bass from outside of the truck but that may be hard with such a small box to work with. My options are prety limited i think,my depth can only be 5.39in or 137mm, now the question should i go for 2-10s sealed or do a small port for 2-10s, one 10 or one 12 ported for "loud" SQ I know this is a long post and i do apologize for that others will be alot shorter heres a vid not the best song but http://s291.photobucket.com/albums/ll305/bad03ranger/?action=view&current=subbox.flv thanks for any input or opinions again sorry fro the long post

Ever thought of the singlecab truck CVX loaded enclosures? I have a friend with a single 10" CVX in the slim ported box in a '99 ranger, and it slams extremely nice.

most of that is a pretty good install, but around the sub looks like sh!t. they go to all that time, seal it, trim it, and it looks like that? i hope that's his own truck. i'd be pissed.

ok maybe other options before i did something like that i would get a tonno cover load it down with 15s and put ports through my cab, i dont want to cut my tuck up thanks though thats a pretty cool idea though

That's my own truck. Those aren't the finished pics; just what I had laying around from during the build. Thanks for the compliment though... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif Here's one I did last year... It looks pretty shitty too:

How are th SI BM these may work for me if they are any account and where can i buy themhttp://stereointegrity.com/bm.php

Edit: Just found out they are only going to be available in 12" but i can rebuild my box and get 1^3 net would this be good for these subs or should i do 1 and port it

settle down pocahontas. i'm not judging the other builds. those look good. however. you can't argue the fact that there is visual evidence of someone being a little sloppy towards the end that project. personally, i wouldn't go through that much work, and permanently ruin the resale value of my truck, if it wasn't going to look perfect at the end. i'm just sayin'.

Hey mikey, I agree you do pretty crappy work J/K I was gonna say the first one looked pretty good worse case an A for the effort of just cuttin the cab brother. Looks good though
