Ok heres what I got to work with. I have a standard cab s10. Now i want to keep full fuctionallity of my seats. I have a Rockford Fosgate 250watt amp and a Kenwood 1500 watt high amp. I need subs and boxes. Dont wanna rattle the whole cab so I need something to reduce ALOT OF VIBRATION. I have a jensen flip out dvd player 160x4 deck with 2x160 xplod dash speakers and 2x100watt pioneer door speakers. So, if you got ideas I wanna hear em, if you got the parts i wanna hear that too.

if you're just looking for a little bass low end fill, sell those amps and replace them with a nice powered subwoofer, you can put it behind the seats and it'll sound pretty nice. I'd also reccomend upgrading those speakers.... sounds pretty weak.

Infinity sells a nice powered SW...

No. actually i was talking about this:
Kenwood KSC-SW1 Powered enclosed subwoofer at Crutchfield.com (http://www.crutchfield.com/S-FsAb1h2UWbX/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?wm=fp&I=113KSCSW1&g=51000)
or
Infinity BassLink II 10'' powered subwoofer with passive radiator at Crutchfield.com (http://www.crutchfield.com/S-FsAb1h2UWbX/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?wm=fp&I=108BASSLN2&g=51000)

Both are pretty decent.

Although the bass tube is a viable option, most of the time they're cheaper and sound like crap. if you know of someone who has a good one, get one like it, the cylinder "box" shape is supposed to be really good for sound reproduction.

I didnt say it had to be those... lol. Just suggestions


You can even get away with shallowmount, smaller subwoofers.. You have a lot of options, you aren't the only one in the world with a small cab truck that wants a little thumpin' stereo ;)
