Subwoofer recommendation
 
Do you guys recommend a good subwoofer and amplifier for the subwoofer box with the recessed z logo? Thanks

I just bought a box from ZEnclosure (Mike) and it is awesome~! I went with (2) 10" Kickers - I think CVR102's and it's powered with a Kicker 800.5 amp along with the rest of my speakers... It sounds great~!

Did you replace the kickers with the ones on the doors?

I used component tweeters in the dash, 6.5's in the door, and 3.5's behind the seats with the (2) - 10's in the back...

See if this works... The amp is just stuck to the top with a piece of velcro for the time being. I still have to decide where I am going to mount it permanently...

Damn that’s nice, both subs are connected to the head unit correct? Also, do you have spacers

Yeah I think with one should be enough for me

Its a tiny car, and the way the subwoofer is positioned the bass bounces off the back window. It hits lovely. To the point where it's to bassy for my taste. I had to dial the bass back. the only reason why I went that route was because I basically had everything except the subwoofer box. I only wanted Something like two steps above the tech package Bose system. My system is definitely overkill for my taste BUT cost me near nothing lol

I always liked Alpine. I ran a single 12 type R with a 1000 mono Alpine amp and it was crazy loud and sounded clear and crisp. I had it in my Eclipse.

Both subs are connected to the Kicker amp which is connected to the head unit via RCA cables.

I bought the spacers for the doors but they didn't seal up worth a crap so I made a mounting bracket using the original plastic 6"x9" mount. I'll try to get a few photos up showing what I'm talking about.


I had considered 1-12". I just thought that the 2-10"s would give me tighter bass.. I'm sure the 1-12" sounds great also~!!

The cheap bracket is what Best Buy installed... I got home and took the door panels off and used the original mounting bracket. I think it's much cleaner and definitely has better acoustics~!
