Looking for the best shallow mount 8" subwoofer out there. Looking to run one or possibly two in a sealed box underneath the rear seat of a 2021 F-150 SuperCab (extended cab, less room than a full crew cab)

I like TIGHT, punchy bass, not woofy overpowering bass.

Sub will be run off a kicker key 500.1 at either 300w @ 2ohms or 500w at 1ohm

I will build the enclosure to ideal cubic foot for the subwoofer but I'd prefer it be as small as possible. Something between .2 and .7 cubic feet or so.

Any thoughts on the kicker L7T-8?

Also, a single is better than two subs for SQ, right?

Volume needs to compete with hertz components and coaxials in the doors running at 50w per channel.

In a down-firing box I have 6.5 inches of depth under the rear seat. That's not including thickness of the MDF or the space needed underneath the box for excursion of the sub

I’m running the same sub and am very happy with it. It’s a great sub for a good price.

They're only 125w RMS of power handling unfortunately. I'm gonna be pushing either 300w RMS at 2ohm or 500w at 1ohm
