I have a Double Cab Tacoma truck right now that has a very poor system installed in it. I had 2 10" Kicker subs from previous vehicles that I installed in the truck, but am finding the sound to be poor because of the incorrect amount of air space. Since I am so limited on space, I had a shop recommend installing 4 of the JL 6" W3 subs instead. This would allow for proper air space as well as proper ported boxes for the subs to give better sound. Has anyone heard a system with such small subs? Did it give some well rounded sound while still giving some really good bass?

 

we have 2 eclipse 8' subs in a 94 GMC 1500 on a 850 watt amp it hits and sounds good

 

yeah four 6" JLs with a decent box will sound much better than two 10s

 

I've done 4 jl 6w0's in several trucks, as well as 2 6w0's in several roadster convertibles (TT's, MR2's, etc.) and they can sound very good. Will it replicate the sound of a couple 12's? No. But they can sound atleast as good as a pair of 10's. They'll surprise you, that's for sure. The key ofcourse (as always) is in the install and tuning.
