Hi,
Welcome to the forum.

When it comes to boxes, you really need to design your box around your speakers. I didn't look up the specs of the speakers or box, but usually a speaker will require a specific amount of air space to operate at it's max.

Also, usually I've found with premade sub boxes, that the quality is never all that great. IE, they use 1/2 inch instead of 3/4 or they aren't sealed all that great etc.

If you're going to have someone install it, you could see how much they would charge to build a box. They might even be able to do a fiberglass box, that could be made to fit and look more OEM in the truck.
just another option to look into.

Hello everyone...

I'm a new member to this site & to the car audio world. I've been thinking about getting a system for my truck (2004 Chevy Silverado 1500 extended cab) for quite awhile now.. I've done a little bit of research on what I want.. Let me know what you think.

I currently have a Kenwood headunit with 4 alpine speakers, ( don't know the exact model off the top of my head) but it sounds pretty good. I'm looking into getting 2 10" subs (Alpine SWR-10D4 Type-R 10" Subwoofer with Dual 4-ohm) Voice Coils (Each) with a Rockford Fosgate Prime R750-1D amp. I mostly listen to rock/metal with a little rap. I'm looking for crisp, clean bass.. I'm gonna need a box too so I've been looking at these online... Atrend 10" Dual Sealed Subwoofer Enclosure for 1999 or Later GM Extended Cab Trucks A152-10CP - Best Buy and GMX240 - Silverado and Sierra Speaker and Subwoofer Boxes and Enclosures. What do you guys think? I'm most likely going to have someone install all of this, since I don't really have a clue on what I'm doing. I've had my headunit and speakers installed by the guy at Brandsmart.

Thanks!!
