I am getting this box
https://www.supercrewsound.com/commerce/product.jsp?prodId=83
Anyone that has this box I would love to hear what you think of it and if the seats still allow access to the third row.

5.25 mounting depth, and 5.75 is a $10 option.

1 cubic foot of air space

I have a PPI PC 2600.2 (150x2 at 4 ohms, 600x1 4 ohm bridged) it is under rated from the factory

I am looking at buying one 12 inch sub or possibly even a 10 incher or two. What sub or subs will give me the best bang for the buck. I don't want window shattering bass, just a nice clean sound that can pound "enough'' when I feel the need. I also don't want to spend over $200 on subs since I will be paying about $170 for the box.

Here are a couple of options that I have found so far.

The Kole would be for two subs

I was really surprised to find that the down firing subs sound amazing in my opinion, especially up front. I have 3 10w3's in mine and my box is sealed. Super tight, clean, and responsive. I listen to everything from metal to rap to blues guitar. Plus I like how protected it keeps the speakers and fits perfectly behind the 3rd row. Bottom line- I couldnt be happier

Down firing sound excellent. I would use the Image Dynamic subs they offer from that same website. They sound excellent in their enclosures.

I will probably go with the Image Dynamics or the MB Quart. Unless someone can tell me that I.D. severely under rates their subs for the power that they can handle I will just get the MB Quart since it is rated at what my amp will push and it is cheaper.

I like this box simply because it tucks right under the 2 row seat. the tough decision is whether to get 1 12" or 2 10"s. I had 10"s before (infinity) on my old honda civic wagon and was not to happy with the bass but it could have been the amp or installation to the box design. i been looking for this box for a while since i just threw a new car stereo (Sony) CDXGT550UI and 4 5x7 Sony xs-GT5726A the sound is good for the size of the 5x7 but i know i need Bass!
