I have an under the seat box with two 10 alpine subs. I am wanting to get more bass. So I was going to change out the subs, to some kickers and debating whether to keep my original sub box or go with something like this

You will rarely get more bass by just changing subs. The biggest change you can make for more output is putting your subs in a box specifically made to your subs.

One that you have custom made either by yourself or a shop. This will have to be done with modeling the subwoofer for the correct air space and tuning frequency if you are porting it.

The loudest Ram I've personally heard (without going blow through) was a single ported JBL W12GTi-MKII with 1200 watts. The guy had his box between the BACK of the center console and rear seats. Box was sitting on the floor, sub was firing up (slightly back too)
I believe the box was tuned around 36-40hz...a bit high for my liking, but it was very loud
and much easier on the eyes than the box in that Fugly Ford

I've got two sundown e10s in a fox ported box. There box is right on spec for the sundowns it's very loud. These trucks don't sound loud outside I kind of like that it's just they way there built. Unless you put a big ported box on the back seat. I think buying kicker products you no longer get what kicker made there name with unless your buying there top line. Your paying more for the name. There other brands that will get you there cheaper

I talked with a locally sound guy and said a 10in Digital Design with a kicker amp and a middle floorboard box

I’m actually looking for sport/rat ram seats or challenger seats to put in the front of my quad cab then put my front seats in the back and make a middle armrest that is a sub box for my sundown. My performance is done on my truck so I’m working on the interior now
