Sub(s) for truck

[Jimmyswan 10+ year member]

I'm new here lots of great info but I cant find what I need. I've got an 06 F250 CC with just about no room behind the rear seat. Right now I have 2 old Hifonics 8"s with arout 150w to each. Sounds alright but obviously I want more, I've got only about 5 inches max mounting depth to work with. What can i do? I don't want them for rap more like Rage or Metallica type music so mainly looking for Sq. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hoping really i could squeeze some 10's in?

Thanks, they look nice but pretty pricey. Anything else?

150 is pricey?

guess im too used to looking at 250-400 dollar subs.

whats your budget?

I am fixing to try to move the rear back seat in my truck. Mine is an 05 King Ranch with a ported box that holds a DD3512 that fits between the console and back seat. It does ok, but it is a huge box.

Shallow mount subs.

I am not sure you are going to get a sub like you want for cheap.

Was hoping around $100 each, not looking to be heard coming down the block. Would I be better off looking at 1 shallow mount bigger sub or two smaller ones. All this new technology is different from when I was 17 and had 4 12's 2 15's etc. Not used to only running 1 sub, is it as good? better?

I am going to try and put 4 12s behind the seat.

How many watts do you have?

 

[Jimmyswan 10+ year member]

Right now around 300

You might add 2 more 8s, or buy a bigger amp.
