6.5 inches is not all that shallow. How much airspace do you have for the woofer? small magnet woofers are often low Qts woofers, which do not like small boxes.

i belive its actually less then 6.5 because of the angle on the back of the box. custome box to fit under the seat of my supercrew f150.

air space i belive is 1.2 qf for 2 12" subs.

thanks mike

What year F150? If it's an older style, Diamonds D3s fit, if it's a newer style, MTX 5500s. (Have a buddy that went from old to new F150).

You can fit a lot of subs with a 61/2 inch requirement...

I have two Diamond D6 12's that have exactly 6.5" magnets... So try that, they sound excellent and can get really loud if put in the proper box. (mine is build for SQ rather than SPL, Sounds extremely good)

Now there's some logic!

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.
