Do you guys have suggestions for a great match for a subwoofer with the dayton/seas combination? I Currently have a jl h.o. Wedge ho110-w6v3 that I got a fantastic deal from a buddy who needed to get rid of it a year or two ago. I had it in my old grand Cherokee (which is on its last legs) which had tons of room in the back but I'm weary of using it in the Cruze due to the sheer size of it, honestly I haven't even tried to check to see if it fits yet. It always sounded great to me, but it was the first subwoofer I ever owned. I'm considering selling it if there's a better match for this system. All I know for sure is if I'm spending money on a sub I want to definitely know it's there, but at the same time I don't want to kill my trunk space. I've looked at the custom fiberglass enclosure in the drivers side pocket which is a 10 inch max. But if there's a small enough box for a bigger sub that would complement my future setup much better then I'm very open to ideas. I also own a Jbl gto-751ez mono amp but if that's not sufficient I could sell that as well. I'm still not sure of the reputation of the JBL amps, I've read good reviews on them but that's just from a general community, not an audiophile community. I also have a JBL 804-ez that (I think) would work for the Dayton/Seabs 4 channel setup. Any thoughts are really appreciated guys. Ive read every single post of v1 and v2 of this thread and I really feel like I'm learning as I go here. It's exciting!

Flex,

I would suggest reading up on some of XR's subwoofer threads. Several have followed the Cone Area is King approach ( dual 18's infinite baffle) to get the most out of the lower frequencies without killing trunk space.

I will be starting with my 10" JBL P1022 sub in a fiberglass box meant for the passenger side cubby of an RX8 that I use to own. I am considering doing that dual 18" sub build.

Thanks! I'll check it out
that is insane/awesome, but way too advanced for me haha

Just figured I would throw this in here since it is mentioned as part of the build: I ordered some products from sounddeadenershowdown and the customer service was excellent. I unknowingly made a mistake with the quantities and I received an email that day verifying that I was sure in my quantities for each product. I told him what I was planning on doing and he replied very quickly with dimensions for my doors, and how much of what I would need. He updated the quantities and saved me $40. Received the shipment and the stuff looks very high quality. Will update when I get a chance to actually install everything. Very pleased so far.
