[QUOTE=53bowtie;4015400]a) All the newer body style trucks (except possibly the "work truck" edition) have bucket seats if you remove either the center console or the center seat whichever the case may be. Also, there is no double baffling necessary if the baffle is only 14" and is braced with the port wall as it would be between the seats.
so now we have to modify seating, all mine was behind the seat ideas.
b) If I understand you correctly I can go buy a $50 15" sub and since it has more cone area and has the right motor to cool the sub (which all subs do or it wouldnt be in production) it will be louder than my soloX? Think about that one for a minute.
I didn't say, Xmax and cone is what makes a system louder.A good 8" can take out a cheap 10".
c) 3 cvx 10's would get close to being the same output, I have seen 3 hit in the mid 140's but going back to your <awe> factor in part b, why have 3 subs when you can just have one?
you'd have MORE cone area with three CVX 10" over one Solo X 10, use about the same airspace, triple motor and coil....why not?
[b] I have personally seen 145's out of ONE Solo L7 8"....it can be done in the right install.
trust me, it can be done....no hiding cone area will be louder, and offer more benfits than one woofer, and loosing seating.

its on a case by case basis though. my point is 3 L7 8's would not be louder. My buddy has one and I am not impressed with it at all. I am sure your 2 15's would be louder, but then again I could throw 10,000 watts at my soloX and it would be louder. So it just depends on the set up.
I just dont see 3 L7 8's hitting high 140's. there are some 8's that would but not L7's.

those sound badass, but i gotta keep the center console and the seat, i like i too much. i got the middle and behind the driver seat for space, the bottle is behind the passenger seat on the wall. so thats real limited space, i think id for sure want a 12in and a badass box but i fnt kno what box to get. probox?

As far as the prefab box, if you must go with one, probox does make a really nice one, but it is almost always better to build one yourself if you have the tools to do so.

I think I may have to see that to believe it. That would be rather impressive to do especially on a TL which I am assuming is what it was measured on.

I am not calling the Solo X cheap. Trust me, I know the cost on them.

I was speaking general terms on a cheap 10" vs.
Rich Turner, did a 148.1 with 500 watts and two L78's in MWSPL and won World Champ two weeks ago, 2-3 db ahead of the rest.
Testing enclosure, to peak a note is in the enclosure more than power. Power is made to 'help' gain in peak, but not the main determining factor.
All I was doing is adding my $.02 to the post, no more or less than anyone else. Anyone can take my advise, or anyone elses for that matter.
I have just been around it for awhile, so was just trying to help.

Cool man. Sounds like you know your stuff. I apologize for doubting you. Hopefully the OP got something out of all this.
Yeah, I am goin to OU so I am hoping they can pull it out. Would solidify their place at the top a bit more I think. Your an Oklahoma State fan huh? I thought about going there before I came here, they have a really nice campus. Just dont beat Mizzou bad enough to drop them too far, I still want us to crush them in the big 12 champ game.

I agree, and offense needs to stay on their toes.
Yes, Kicker aka Stillwater Designs was started and founded here in 1973. The world HQ is right here in Stillwater, right across the street from Boomer lake. Can't miss it, about 250,000 sq.ft
Then we have DC's in LA and Europe.
