do you think you can stick a sub on the sky? and where? i want to fill out the last octave. i will be putting the amps under the passanger seat and getting a flipout dvd with nav system
Fiero enthusiasts have been doing that for years (no doubt it's been done on other cars, too). It works well, from what I've read. Also, if there is any space behind the seats you might be able to put a box behind the passenger seat, or driver's side if you're short (also done on Fieros).101jinx101 said:If your into automotive bodywork, it might be possible to put a 10" or so right between the seats... i think that would look good, with a plexi-glass face and neon![]()
there will be a factory sub location behind the passanger seat. im guessing it will be an 8" or 10"theirishgonzo said:do you think you can stick a sub on the sky? and where? i want to fill out the last octave. i will be putting the amps under the passanger seat and getting a flipout dvd with nav system
while you're at it, grab one or two of the sub behind the passanger seatbrentil said:There's plenty of trunk images over at the Solstice site. I'll link a couple.
it could be either an 8 or 10, but my guess is for an 8. depth i would hazard a guess at about the same at the width.kingofhearts said:Does anyone have a clue as to what the size and depth of the sub will be.
I'm not too suprised, good to know.kingofhearts said:I work at Best Buy and I was talking to the guys at the install bay and they said that the monsoon system usually uses a six inch sub and JL makes a replacement sub for that application.
six, not six and a half? that would be a pain. i would have to create a box of my own designed to use the same space. i need to use an 8 inch sub. *sigh* well, you gotta do what you gotta do.kingofhearts said:I work at Best Buy and I was talking to the guys at the install bay and they said that the monsoon system usually uses a six inch sub and JL makes a replacement sub for that application.
well if you don;t need a bunch of passenger leg room you can probably build you a extension box outset from the factory location to install a larger Sub in and let the backside stick back into the hole probably only reduce the legroom a couple inches...swatthefly said:six, not six and a half? that would be a pain. i would have to create a box of my own designed to use the same space. i need to use an 8 inch sub. *sigh* well, you gotta do what you gotta do.
its a good idea, but i am going for the "sleeper" sound system. i want it to look stock, other than the head unit. so i need the sub to fit behind the factory grill. ill just have to play around with the original location a bit.classic66vair said:well if you don;t need a bunch of passenger leg room you can probably build you a extension box outset from the factory location to install a larger Sub in and let the backside stick back into the hole probably only reduce the legroom a couple inches...
well, i bet a year or so down the road, you'll be able to buy kits from best buy or what have you, and it will be a new dash fiasca designed for the new headunit.sky_vue said:? How will you change the head unit as it is built into the dash facia. Curiosity, not trying to discourage.. but I've always liked changing the system if it would bring greater sound. With this car it seemed that the only way to do this would have been switching the speakers and then maybe getting amps and eq's that would be housed seperately from the unit itself.
Just a ? for swatthefly.![]()
