never over kill , theres not a lot of room in there for the proper box you need. each sub has a recomneded box and vent size, ( or just sealed size ) so they wont sound like they would even if you put them in a hatchback, and i had 2 pioneer 10s and 2 poinner 12s in a reg cab 90 cheyenne sounded fine with wal mart 4x6s ---

most likely gonna sound like shit … there just is not enough airspace in the cab of that truck to make anything sound good … Trust me … i have many years of expierence trying to get a reg cab pickups sound good … i would only go with 1 10" … and a big enough box ---

well i already have the subs and i ordered the box specifically for the s10 standard cab. the box that i had my subs in was pretty small too and it sounded good. can i still have it sound ok? like without rattling and i mean i dont like to listen to insanely loud bass, i listen to metal and hardcore and VERY little bit of rap so mostly im looking for the low bass like bass pedal ---

i had a 48" long box in my 95 regular cab, and it was large enough for 4 10’s, fitting 2 12" subs would have required either seat mods, or cab mods i had 2 subs in the box, each out towards the end, then stacked 2 narrow subs between the seat backs, lower amp mounted totaly to the box, upper amp mounted to the box and to the rear sheetmetal , and then i had a few more amps and crossovers mounted to the rear wall above the box . behind the seats everything was tuned by an old friend who used to do competitions, and it sounded fucking amazing, and it rattled the entire shop @ schmitts teh day he finished tuning it. i had something like 600 watts going thru the subs alone but i also had everything covered in sound deadening … rear wall, floor, door skins, firewall, roof, and anyplace i couldnt lay sheets, i sprayed undercoating. i also spent time tracking down rattles i had plenty of compliments on the system, alot of which were from strangers so it definantly sounded good enough to be worth the effort ---

i never got any DB readings in my truck, as i had no interest in that i built the box because i was called a retard for thinking i could get four 10’s in the cab of the truck without cutting the cab wall. i was told that the only commercialy available bax for that body style was for a single 10, and because of that everything else was impossible so i built a box for 4, and then showed it to the idiot that doubted the possibility. he was quite unhappy that he decided to cut out the cab wall just to put 2 10’s in the bed i never bothered to turn it up all the way because ive got ear damage … loud stereo systems cause a bit of pain … i built the system so that all the frequencies were well represented, and that all became “to loud” at about the same time i think 28 / 50 was the limit, and 22/50 was where i ran it constantly [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2-10s-in-my-s10-overkill/20657.md?page=2)
