Got the sound ordnance 8PTD, but now wanting lower freqs
I had replaced my door speakers already with infinity 6289cfs, which lower frequency response goes down to 40 hz (if the specs are accurate). I'm really not hearing anything MORE with the sound ordnance sub (not suprising ,the specs for it are also down to just 40 hz). There is more bass, but I'm not 'feeling' any more than I did from the current speakers. This is after tuning it over a couple days...
It's a nice bit of bass, especially for the price (under $200). Ok, so now I've got all the wiring in place, Now, I want MORE bass (deeper, lower frequency, and a bit clearer too). What subenclosure and sub can I get that will do all that AND, is small enough that I can still fit under the back passenger seat. I'll accept that I'll have to remove it in order to load the back of my supercrew. Now I'm looking for what sub, subenclosure, and amp combo can I get to try to get 'more/deeper bass'. Again, I don't want get into street battles, I just want more than what I have now. Any suggestions? Or am I going to have to shell out $700ish to get better?

Built in is a No GO. I can't remove the substage 'at will' at a moments notice. I need to load things into the back of the crew cab regularly.
I'll drop a vote on the Kicker Substage.
Get it through Levittown for about $500. 200w class D amp built onto the enclosure. Kicker's shallow mount 10" in a sealed box that bolts into the location where the factory Sony 8" POS used to be located. Dedicated power supply with fuse and just needs a signal from the factory door wires (took mine in the passenger side kick panel). It'll rattle all the mirrors set at +/- 0 on the bass EQ with about 1/2-3/4 volume. Looks factory too.

Look at bazooka tube then, Amos built in, ported and corner loaded it will give you what you want. It also removes easily if needed.

I'm not seeing any better low end response from the bazooka tubes listed on crutchfield from what is provided by the sound ordnance (look like nearly all of them have frequency response down to 40 hz and that's it).
I'm really thinking I need to go the 'JL route' (or sundown? but then I'd have to find an appropriate enclosure, but I don't think I've seen anyone who's been wanting to move their sundown sub/enclosure in and out of the truck on a regular basis)
