I wanna put a pair of JL 10W7's in my extended cab pickup under the back seat and ive measured the space under it and I have about 9 3/4 or 10 inches. And the mounting depth on the sub is 8 inches. Is that enough room for these subs to put them in a truck box... any suggestions... HELP!!!
Yeah, as long as there is at least 1" clearance for the sub, it's o.k. Just make sure you get the box to specs by compensating width or height for the lack of depth you have.

I was reading another thread and somebody said that a W7 will not fire under a seat, is this true, and if so what subs do fire under a seat?
He probably said it wouldn't fit under a seat. It'll fire anywhere as long as it has room, but they usually sound the best behind the seat instead of under it, since the back of the seat "loads" the woofer.

Well will those subs sound any good in a pickup or are there a different pair of 10" subs of equal quality that will sound better in a pickup?
image dynamics IDQ 10" subs sound awesome too, and in a pickup - you wont lose any sound as if they were in a trunk...they have a much shallower mounting depth too
i'd say get two of these or try a 10" brahma or somethin close to that

Which would be louder and sound better in an extended cab or regular cab pickup, a pair of 10" IDQ subs, a pair of 10" Orion H2 subs, a pair of 10" Brahma's, or the pair of 10W7's? Also what type of amp would you recommend for the IDQ's and the Brahmas if they would be the loudest.
I'd do the Brahmas. The Brahma 10" is built more solidly and hits harder than the 10W7. Sound quality is better, too, in my opinion. Like Bacon said, ID Maxxes shouldn't be looked past, either, but the depth of the driver is deeper than the Brahma, that's a consideration in a truck.

Alright, say I were to go with the pair of Brahmas or the pair of ID Maxxes, what type of amp should I get for each pair of subs? Money isn't a problem but be reasonable. thanks again
I actually am in the middle of building a setup similar to this. I have an '03 F150 Supercrew that I'm putting two 10" Brahmas in under the rear seat.
I've already purchased the amps, a Phoenix Gold Tantrum 1200.1 for the two subs, and a 600.4 for the doors (I haven't decided on those yet). I got the 1200.1 for like $330 and the 600.4 for like $219 from sounddomain.com. To me, this was an awesome deal.
You can find the brahma 10" from speedsound.com for $229. I just got mine from them the other day and I had no problems at all.
