how many subs do you want, and how much space do you have or are you willing to let go for the box. You need to clarify because I could come up with a few crazy multi-sub setups.

Maybe 10 Mach 5 audio 12's.

Well im in a 96 ford explorer 4-dr. All of the hatch space is available...

Edit: sorry, looking for 3-4 12's or 2 15's or prolly 1-2 18's

will 4 of the Alpine SWR-1242D's do the job?

yes you could wire them to 2 ohms and it should get pretty loud. I know mine does by itself.

Your going to need a new alty and a better battery up front.

How exactly would I do that because the amp is stable at 2 ohms..?

Take two Dual 4 ohm subs wire them down to 1 ohm. Then take the other two dual 4 ohm subs and wire them down to 1 ohm. Then to finish it off you wire the two pairs you have to 2 ohms.

Could get a pair of Massive Audio CW 15's to match that Massive 3kw .... They're $280 a piece from http://www.low-hz.com and maybe if you talk to ben you can get a discount if you buy the amp/subs at the same time ?? He's flexiable like that sometimes.

yea I been trying to get on that low-hz.com site but its been down for a while. but to tell you the truth I was gonna choose between the 4 12" CVR's or 4 12" Type-R's. Which would be better?? Just looking for the loudest ones between those choices.

Take a look at the Massive Audio CW video : http://video.snoopdan.com/cw_12.1.wmv

Well as i see it you have only one box option if you get 4 12's. IT starts with W.

And ends with an all.

Its a wall you should definately wall it off you would have a nasty loud suv. In fact the massive audios are nice subs from what i hear maybe go that way to be different.
