In-bed subs.
Ok I have three subs and an amp and nothing to do with them. I'm not spending any more money other than wires and building supplies (i.e. no more subs or amps). I wanna put them all in the bed.
Is there any way to wire three SVC 4ohm subs into an amplifier capable of 2 or 4 ohm operation?
What's a good way to build the box? It needs to be waterproof, and preferably removable. Obviously the subs/amp can't be exposed.
Good way to get power wire to it?
Will it sound good? Without knowing the subs and amp and stuff, does the sound change between the inside of the truck and the bed? Enough to make it not worth it? Scrap the project and sell the stuff?
Thanks for the help.

If anybody has any plans for it, that'd be great. By the way I forgot to mention this is a '94 Ranger regular cab, hence the reason I prefer the bed over the cab for subs.
ALSO...lol. This is a 2 channel amp and 3 10" subs if that helps any.

I would probably think about building a sealed box for behind the front seat, and mount the amp under the seat rather than putting them in the bed. I can't see any way of making a sub box waterproof.
Like Romer said though give us part numbers and we could probably help a lot more.

the only way to make this worth while would be to put a tonneau cover or topper over the back of the truck and to cut a hole through the back wall of the truck its called a blow-thru and direct the sound through the hole. otherwise you will just have 3 subs blowing into wide open air which wont produce any feeling from the bass.
