Bronze Member Username: Big_edPost Number: 15 Registered: Jun-05 | My brother is about to purchase a 2002 Chevy S10 standard size (the smaller size one with almost no space), and wanted to get some kind of system in there but is unsure about how much space will be behind the back seat. Can someone with an S10 or someone who knows please help me on how much I can fit behind the seat (if anything). I was thinking an 8 inch W7. If not that then what is the best setup for it, what other subs will fit, and if no subs will fit what will be the best component speakers he could put in there? Have fun with your ideas!!!! |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 2772 Registered: Jun-04 | this is the 8 inch but it only has an fs of 38.8 doable but not a super low end extender the 10 inch has an fs of 25.372 hz so if you can fit that it might be a better choice of the two http://www.soundsplinter.com/rli_series/rli_8_inch_DIY_car_and_home_subwoofer_dr iver_information.html |

Bronze Member Username: Big_edPost Number: 16 Registered: Jun-05 | i found a box that fits two 8s 10s or 12s with a maximum mounting depth 5.75 inches but only .4 ci ft. I was thinking two 10W6v2 with a 500.1 amp, but they require a minimum of .6 cu ft each. i want somthing that will fit, and hit realy hard |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 2774 Registered: Jun-04 | check out those sound splinters then they fit in very small box sizes |
Bronze Member Username: Big_edPost Number: 18 Registered: Jun-05 | i was looking at those, two 10s would fit perfectly. i never heard of sound splitters tho. i would like to know how they sound before i buy them. has anyone heard them before? |
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 2776 Registered: Jun-04 | this is what apocolypse just told me in instant messenger to tell you ed no not yet i just got the site bakc to working... but give Big ed this site..tell him the custom tc sub is the soundsplinter 8 except now they work in ported enclsoures http://forum.soundillusions.net/showthread.php?p=468313#post468313 they won top 2 sound quality and hit 125 in a sealed enclsoure with only 100watts |
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 2777 Registered: Jun-04 | this is also what apocolypse said i was a bit worried when it came to the subs because the man that tested them said after a few watts ported they seemed to bottom out but the problem was fixed |
Bronze Member Username: Big_edPost Number: 19 Registered: Jun-05 | okay so with two 8s, what amp and component speakers will i need? |
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 2786 Registered: Jun-04 | you could do this amp into 1 ohm http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=64571%26item%3D5780673452 %26 or this one if your carefull how hard you push the subs setting the amp to 1 0hm ...this would be my choice http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=64571%26item%3D5780673452 %26 we choose the audiobahn amps for their adjustable subsonic and adjustable bass boost settings plus the fact they are class d very efficient infinity perfect for components |
