Thanks guys.
Lakersfan:
Yes the tweeters are inside the stock location.
Kazuma:
Yes, I hated to have lost that space, but I did not want my amps exposed to the public if you know what I mean. I still have to secure those in there because they are moving. You're thinking of running the sub amp to the Bose sub or are you changing that sub out? I think it would make the Bose stronger, but no real thump. I also like the Bose sound, but I hate the lack of thump. I'm not trying to blast a neighborhood, but I like to feel a little something. Both of those amps are set to about 1/3 of the power.... I'm serious. The sub setting on the alpine deck are usually any where from 0 - 6.... It is STRONG. If you are thinking of changing the sub out, I'm sure you will notice a difference. Of course I think that a new deck will help as well.

Right. I would have loved to have done more custom work in there, but honestly I don't roll ($$$) like that. I was happy to just have changed out the stock speakers. I don't know how the rest of you on this forum do it.
Those pods are tight... they really shine in that setup.

Yes I will probably be replacing the headunit with something, not sure what yet, I'd like to keep it double din. The audio controls on it aren't good either, I could probably get it to sound better if there were better controls for the speakers.
I'm definitely not trying to blow a neighborhood away either, but I want my bass to thump and rumble, which the Bose woofer just doesnt do.

question... and I am not an audio expert by far;
In regards to the 10" sub enclosure behind the driver seat, I was told that this was a "free air" setup.. as in, that bracket only lets you mount the sub, but unless it was a "free air" sub it would not sound good. Is this enclosure sealed? Or is your sub free air?
*excuse my lack of knowledge and verbage

I will take pics of the sub without the cover for you, rkd350z... other than that the others are in the beginning of the thread.

Good luck

So I ended up buying a similar infiniti sub since the space is small behind it.
Only problem now is that I get a bad rattle from the enclosure. I took the cover off which helped somewhat but still cant seem to get the rattle out. There is little strips of dynamat on the enclosure itself but not a lot. Do I need a lot to keep the rattling out?
I'll be pulling the sub out and checking it tomorrow for anything wrong.
