havent seen the sub. have been very unhappy with quadratec. if you're talking about a subwoofer for your stereo I would buy something from somebody who makes audio equipment not 4x4 parts, and has poor customer service. just my opinion

http://www.quadratec.com/products/74136_700.htm <--I think that is what you are talking about.

I have no experience with them or this product, but i do know there is someone on here building similar ( im sure better due to being hand crafted and not plastic) sub boxes that fit 10 inch or 12 inch subs for a decent price.

That thread is here. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f11/ch...sub-box-30689/

Figured id just toss that out there for you..

if you want a good sub go with kicker they are a little pricier but worth it great quality the solox is my favorite but if you want something cheaper the l7 are good

I know exactly what your talking about.. I think the only way you would have any luck is to make it yourself... I've got drawings made up for a 10" to be in that spot... I dont want a free-floating box in the cargo area, due to my rig being my daily driver and I still need that space. I just got to figure out where to hide the amp......

EDIT
as for that setup, I see it lasting a week with decent power going to it... Its a legacy sub.. plus its only an 8... you will blow the cone right off the vc....

Under the seat? the back seat? I'd be concern about heat. Amps get warm... Hot actually... Unless its class D (competition amps)... Maybe under the passenger's seat? Thats where I'm starting to think about....

if you got the bread $$$ for that stuff... Polk is a decent name, but because of vin diesel and paul walker, brands like polk and momo have been teaming up to make junk... Polk by its self is good, but Polk Momo is like the walmart version of it.. In comparison, like the low end sony stuff.... I have an older Sony P5 10" that punches HARD but its powered by a class D amp .


It all depends on what you want to spend..... I'd stay away from brands like dual, lanzar, legacy.... IMO.
