[QUOTE="Jcsaudio, post: 8606550, member: 673752"] Well I have a big 2014 Toyota Sienna minivan and I can tell you that compared to my CX5, a large van just doesn’t have the cabin gain and eats up the bass. If you want deeper bass than going with smaller subs, even two, may not be the best idea for a minivan. I have a single Alpine 10” SWS in my minivan right now in a custom built ported box tuned to 35 hz or to Alpine specifications and it sounds very nice. The box is just a hair over 1 cu ft so it’s not too big and I only have a 400 watt RMS amplifier pushing it. I also own a JL Audio 8” W3V3 in a ported box by JL and the 10” Alpine hits lower and is louder than the JL although the JL does hold its own and sounds nice for a low powered sub on 220 watts RMS. I think Boomin tahoe is right and it may be that box. Can you build or acquire a custom built ported box built to the specifications of that 10? [/QUOTE]
