can you buy them in 12's instead of 10's. cause I was looking at some boxes like that but could only find them for 10" subs. cause right now I just have 2 12's on the back seat. and there starting to get in the way.

as you can see in the pics, it doesnt look like the enclosure would fit a pair of 12's i can assure you though that this pair of 10's will thoroughly **** off your neighbors if thats the sort of sound that your looking for. bigger isnt always better, its a small cab. i run my sub amp at about 5% listening to rock and it sounds awesome with these 10's

yea you need some sort of amp. crutchfield also sells the same setup with an amp built in somewhere. i have 2 amps in my truck: one under the driver seat and one on the floor behind the driver. theres a 2 channel amp powering the subs and a 4 channel amp powering the rest of the speakers. its a little messy but thats how i bought the truck. i would like to get a single amp to power everything and put it under the seat, im not sure how that would work though

i have only 1 10" mtx thunderform sub in my dak, extd. cab and it booms nice. as long as you get the proper amp, the right head unit that allows for sub outs and proper adjustments, 10" subs will make you the prize of the neighborhood.
