Quicksilver

Hey All, I'm running 2 twelves in the back of my supercap, under the seat. The box was custom for a silverado and since that has a larger back seat than my F150, the box takes up too much room. Just slightly too tall and about 6 inches wider than the seat. I'd like to get a box that fits nicely under the seat. Any suggestions? what is every one else doing for woofers? I am almost afraid that the 12" is just too big to fit a box, custom or not....

I have 2 10 JL audio's in a box under my back seat. My buddy as 2 JL 12's in the same size box under his back seat. My 2 10's out hit is 12's 2 to 1. You can not get a box under the back seat with enough air space under the back seat without having to raise the seat 2 inchs. I say go with 2 10's and not worry about it. My buddy that owns a stereo store has 2 JL 10's in box for 300.00

if you want to keep your 12's do it. its not hard at all to space your back seat up. just put a spacer under the legs... first i had 2 12's under the backseat then i went to 2 10's. i feel like i had better sound quality from the 10's. not enough airspace for the 12's also i put 1 10 in the center console at one time. if all your looking for is quality that will work. the last system i had i took to competions was 4 10's ina cut through. this go around im doing 8 10's. reason for the cut through is i still wanted my back seat. let me know what the decision is i like your truck

you have lots of options, the 12's wont neccesarily be loudest at all so if thats what your thinking then u might wanna change that, a few nice 8's or even a single 10 can be as loud and sound as good as 2 12"s

1/2" thick MDF.

Make a box. It's simple and very effective. I built boxes for my 6x9s and they work better than the store bought boxes i used to have

do not use 1/2 mdf, i use 1/2 mdf for beauty panels and it is not good for boxes..it will work but u will be in the same boat as buying pre-fab which is most of the time ****, you get better sound from a box built yourself and from higher quality materials

The MDF works perfectly in my truck. It channels the sound perfectly, and its also strong.
What material would you suggest?

i don't think material is the problem... everywhere i read it's 3/4" mdf...not 1/2" 3/4 = more dense

Hit JL's stealth boxes. You can get 2 8's under the seats. I dont know what year your truck is, but theres alot of options you can do. You can put them in your center concoles and stuff too, but i'm not a person to do that

Like i said, 1/2" works perfectly. The main thing when building boxes is to ensure theres enough air in the box for the sound.
