Looking to install aftermarket subs

[Mikewww]

Hello all. New to this forum and need help. I’m looking to install 2 10” subs and an amp in my 22 ram 1500 big horn. Does anyone know where I can buy a sub box for the big horn quad cab? Seems like most boxes are intended for the crew cab and the quad cab boxes I’ve come across are not compatible for the 2022

Installed on my base audio all aftermarket speakers and key 200.4, now wanting subs. I have 3 options I am interested in, the Fox dual 10 ported box, a sealed dual 10 and there is a Net audio single ported which is really nice, but $ and don't want to raise seat. Question is, with the Fox box, does the port cause a lot of rattle etc on drivers side rear door? I had dual 12s in my 13 Ram QC in a custom made fiberglass box, but had to raise seat, sitting in back sucked, head was on ceiling. Was thinking 2 audiocontrol 10s, not sure what amp yet, wanting 1,000 watts rms so I can have 500 to each sub. Could go more, but want light dimming when subs hit to minimum. Added photo of the sealed box I was looking at.

i ran several set's of woofers in the fox box the sundowns were okay but i have audiocontrol 10's now and they have much better sq and cost about the same oh and no the door didn't rattle with well over 1000 watts. GREAT CHOICE.

I had 1 Skar Audio dual voice coil 12" with an 800 watt mono amp in my previous big horn. Solid sound for the coin. Just providing other brand options.

i looked at those but the mounting depth kinda needs a shallow mount and skar subs recommend more air space for ported than the box's provide. you can shop around and find something that will work out. if you go sealed it opens up more options.

Skar does not make box for quad cab 5th gens.

Which Audiocontrol subs? Spike series? Was thinking those or possibly the stinger subs. Amp, can't decide, possibly a down4sound jp8, epic 1000, audiocontrol altitude or the stinger amp. Things I like about each amp, d4sound has really nice bass knob with voltage, temperature and clip light. All priced pretty close except the altitude amp is about $90 more. I was thinking possibly going bigger with amp instead of going 1ohm, get bigger amp and run 2ohm to keep better efficiency and heat to minimum.

LOL... your in luck i had a few d4s amps JP95T (it's a beast) and the jp3 cpt good for the money. and as far as the subs the i went with the 4 ohm spikes because they need the least amount of air space and i run them 2ohm on the LC 1.1500. the jp95t with a set of 2ohm spikes would be good even the 4ohm's would work nicely.
i had 1 (red) and i did 1 (gray) as a side job it's actually really good. i sold mine and ended up spending too much money.

Confirmed. They infact do not. My apologies.

I am for sure ordering the Fox box, is best out there besides Net $$$ audio. I just ordered a JP13 Amp, there is sale now and certain colors are $169. The dyno tests online show 1,372rms @ 2 ohm 88% efficient, 2k @ 1ohm but less efficient and can pull too many amps. So just bought the jp13 amp and run 2ohm to keep cooler and keep efficiency. Is a deal since the smallest mono amp is same price. Will get a kicker loc to tap into rear speaker wires at the key 200.4 input. Now speakers are all thats left...the stinger mc 10s are good price and higher power handling at 700rms so I may try them, not much of a waste if I decide later to upgrade, they are only $89 and good depth for that box.

my truck came with a 220 amp alt, i have a Walmart platinum agm with quality knukonceptz ofc wire and no dimming with my 4.800, 2.300 and 1.1500 audiocontrol amps as loud as i can handle.
it's look's better now than the pic during install but it's all behind the seat and ya can't see it but i still wanted it to look good........
