Default Some pretty basic audio questions...
I have a 2 10" sealed box for my truck and am looking for the best subs for a sealed box that are priced well. I dont know much on the subject so ill take all advice and try to refrain from using too much technical jargon please
And also an amp that would go well for the subs would be much appreciated.

How much airspace is in the box? That plays a huge part in which subs are right for the box.

Measure the external dimensions, subtract the thickness of the material that it's built with, do some math.
