[QUOTE="jmcinvale, post: 8140681, member: 608668"] I have a 2005 Honda CRV and would like to upgrade the subs. I currently run two JL 12W6 subs in a dual 12" sealed box with each chamber just under 1 cu ft. That works ok, but I know that I can do better. The subs are powered by a JL 500/1 amp which can do 500 watts at anywhere from 1.5 to 4 ohms impedance. My plan is to have a box built that takes up 1/2 the rear cargo area from the rear of the drivers side back seat to the door with the subs firing out the top and the three JL amps and one JBL MS-8 processor mounted on the side with a battery box mounted on the other side. Figure that would give me a few cubic feet to work with. I can take approximate measurements of the space I have to work with tomorrow afternoon. What subs would be good to use for SQ that will sound good from 20-150 Hz? Would like to use two 12" subs, but if a single larger sub or more than two 12" subs would work best I'd go with that. Cost is really not an issue as I can continue using what I have now and then save up for the better stuff. [/QUOTE]
