Default Down firing subwoofers

Hello Fam,

Have a 2013 f150 supercab and wanted to get some audio done. I have done some research and found out that the majority of sub size for under the seat is 10 inch subs. Has anyone built a box for 12's? I know the mounting depth is limited, but I wanted to see if anyone has a custom box for 12's. Although 10 inch subs will sound good with the right product, I would much rather have 12's under the seat for down firing, even if the seat doesn't go 100% down. Any help or recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Look into the shallow mount 12's then you do not need to worry about mounting depth. JL audio (TW3 or TW5), Sundown Audio (SD series), or Stereo Integrity (BM Mkv) are good choices. You can fit two 12's under there sealed or one 12 ported.

Look at what this company builds for a little inspiration : WOWSERS!
