Whats up guys,

I just purchased my 2006 350z a month ago, I am happy with everything but the stock sound system. Since I have a base, I thought I would get a different head unit anyway. Can you guys help me out and tell me if this plan seems okay.

I am looking to buy AVIC D3 Pioneer Navigation Unit. I will purchase this off of Amazon for roughly 590. After this I would like to add some type of enclosure, subs, and an amp.

I want to have 1 quality sub, what type of amp, and size of amp would be reccomended for just one sub. When I went to Tweeter their JL 500 amp was 549 bucks. for some reason that sounded very high.

I will add the other components as time goes on, for now I just want to start on the headunit and subs.

Thanks for any help.

I am in the same boat as you, but my is a 2008 base. I replaced the head unit and speakers. I got the avic D3 its a bad *** head unit especially for the money, but make sure you get a Ipod connector because you need to keep the nav CD in there to make it work.

Yea I think I want to get a sub in the left corner of my trunk, but I don't know where I would Put the amp.

Most people use the Bose sub location behind the drivers side to hide amps... plenty of space back there.

Thanks alot, I will end up putting the amp back there. I have almost sealed the deal. I am going to be purchasing from Wicked Cas the Corner Box and a JLw3v3 to go along. I know JL's amps are extremely expensive, can someone please reccomend a amp that will make the sub sound good, that is still pretty inexpensive? Thanks

thanks for the reply but I dont understand what you mean. I found the elmental designs site but you said both the ed nine 2x and the nine 1? I'm so new at this audio stuff. Wouldnt one amp be suitable for 1 sub?

lukep90

sorry that was an or.

yes, one is all you need.

lukep90

and a nine.2 (not x) is fine for one JL 10 w3v3. (plenty of power...)

okay... so the more watts the amp is the better the sub will sound...correct? I dont know how much watts the JLw3v3 will hold, but if I put the nine.2x with that one sub will it bump pretty hard?

lukep90

no. itl only break it...

look at this...

What impedance W3 are you getting? 2 or 4 ohm? If it's the 2ohm version, get this amp....it'll be perfect and is IMHO one of the best sub amps made:
