I'm interested in installing a sub but I don't want a space hogging big ass box in my trunk. I'm not really big into audio but I do want to add some low end punch without being crazy loud. My idea is to install a free air sub directly behind the fold down armrest in the trunk. This will allow the bass to enter the cabin while the armrest is down and the little door that goes into the trunk is open. Will this work? Again I'm only interested in adding some good bass without being the King of Krunk. Any of you audiophiles have any suggestions? Crutchfield sells a Kenwood free air sub that I think would work good. Can I use that with a good amp (suggestion welcome on a amp also) and also use the rear 6x9's? I dont know much about car audio so help me out with some good intel. Thanks!
if you wanna keep as much trunk space as possible, you could do something similar to mine...just not quite as extreme. i glassed my spare tire well & put (1) 15, but it could be done the same with a 10 or 12....you just wouldn't have to raise the floor as much, maybe none @ all.
i use a memphis 500d for the sub (about 700 watts). i have a memphis 75x2 for the front seperates & the memphis 6x9s on the rear deck are run off the head unit for just a little rear fill & i have 'em mostly faded out.
holla back if you have any questions
