you should find the subs first, then build a box according to the subs specs

Yes, I know I should, but my box choices are VERY limited. I have a couple of little ones and I need the back seat.
1.8 shared for 3 10's is ultra small...maybe you should look at 2 8's or maybe 1 10 or 1 12

what about 2 good 10's?
or 3 8's? just throwing ideas out there.
like what was posted earlier....get the subs then build the box to specs of subs....1.8 would probably do well with 3 8's...by the time you drop 3 10's in a box that small the displacement of the sub takes almost all the airspace..your 1.8 tuns into less than 1 cube..

Okay, I see. Thank you. The thing with box is that it cannot be any deeper or longer. I am almost forced to go the route of box first, because I have absolutely no room to play with.
I have a regular cab ranger so I can understand not wanting to give up room. Your best bet is two tens sealed or one ported.
Two of these would be nice if your on a budget they recommend .65 cubes sealed and they should be shallow enough.

Okay, thank you for the advice. Thats why I'm here. I appreciate it. If I were to go with a pair of those 10's, would this amp that I already have push them? :http://www.woofersetc.com/p5815/XP600D--Crossfire-Mono-600-Watt-Amplifier.htm
It says that it's one channel, but the one in the pic and mine have two channels on them.

Can someone help me out and tell me if this amp ^^is one channel, and one ohm mono stable? I have this amp, but it has two speaker channels, not one.
if you have 2 speaker chanels then thats not ur amp...so that makes the amp you have a 2channel and not a mono.

Ok, so I could get the MBQ dual 2's and wire them to two ohms per the pic below, then bridge them across the two channels of the amp and get a final load of 2 ohms mono on the amp? With those subs and that amp at 2 ohms mono, can I expect to get loud, clear bass out of it?
Thanks to everybody on the forum for the help.

Can anyone suggest a setup so when I get out of my vehicle i can hear the subs from about 10ft away?
Get a Wrangler and get naked (you know…the Jeep, not you…none of us want to see that) and you’ll definitely be heard coming. 😉
