Need help on deciding what subs to buy?

Alan Girard New member Username: Algirard1 OH United States Post Number: 1 Registered: Dec-04	Posted on Thursday, December 30, 2004 - 18:31 GMT I have a 1993 Ford Ranger Extended Cab. I have been looking into buying some subs to give me some bass. Right now I am running 4 6x9 Pioneer 3 ways off a sony headunit. I was wandering if anyone could give some advice on what subs I should buy. Thanks very much.

Is there anyway to put the subs under my seats to leave the cab open for passengers. For the subwoofers I am looking to spend about $150 max for each subwoofer. I would like the subwoofers to give some thump because I listen to rap music a lot of the time. Thanks very Much

Alan Girard New member Username: Algirard1 OH United States Post Number: 3 Registered: Dec-04	Posted on Thursday, December 30, 2004 - 19:04 GMT I just looked and there isn't enough room under the seats. There is only like a 5 inch gap between the floor and the seat. So I guess the best place to put them would be in the cab.

I'm sure jon or glass can tell you tho. I've several setups with the subs under the seat, so I know you can get it done. zac can probably give you some insight to this also.
