so, currently im Using a Fosgate P1S410 (http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/produ...8&locale=en_US )
this is my second one, and ive been driving for two months.. the thing just cant handle very much wattage.

The amp im Using is a JL E1400D (http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...io-e1400D.html )

The sub im considering changing out my fosgate for is an Alpine SWS-1043D
( http://www.crutchfield.com/p_500SWS1...3D.html?tp=111 )

sorry for all of the links, but id rather switch to a stronger sub before i blow this one so i can get some money back out of it. so in your opinions which one is a keeper, or do you have another suggestion? top mount depth needs to be about 5 1/8 or less.
Thank You!!

Honestly, If you can spend a little more go for an Alpine Type R sub. Great bang for your buck. You will be very happy. Been into serious car audio for about 15 years. Just so you have an idea I'm not blowing smoke.

Google up reviews, or read around on car audio forums if you would like many more opinions.Good luck either way!

Oh no...I just seen it has to be 5 1/8 or less deep, well Im not sure what the type R is...

the type r's i just looked at about about 6", so it wouldnt fit my box. they had a shallow mount, it was only $450 on crutchfield. lol

If you can avoid a shallow mount that would be good.They just are not the same. They are at best ok...

Cole3

yeah i know, i was trying to avoid the shallow mounts. thats why that alpine looked so appealing.

too bad you cant go with the type r's I have two of them. They will run you out of the truck if you want, but adjusted correctly they sound great!

Id avoid crutchfield, although they give good advice they over price the crap out of everything. Always had alpine, never had a problem

I've had Alpine and Jl Audio..both very good speakers! but one day I tried out Diamond Audio and I haven't bought anything but DA since. Can't beat the price for sound and if you're limited on space, the 10's will fit under your back seat..that's what I've got in mine.

Here's the link for the D1's-
