    Utilizing stock location sub... VW Golf R (MKVII)

    My new Golf R has what appears to be a 6" 'Fender' subwoofer in an enclosure that resembles a spare tire. In the below link you can see pics and get dimensions. My questions is simple: Am I able to put in a decent 8" per the below dimensions? I'm not looking to set records, just something better...

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    Dual 12's could work on either side of the trunk? Or I'd probably get best results in a single enclosure? Maybe I can get away with an enclosure that sits against the rear seats?

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    Pic in my avatar. Custom built. I'm not looking for a 18" sub for the truck. I was obviously joking about looking for that type of output when I'm clearly looking at 12's ...

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    All good stuff! I don't have a hard budget, but am trying to figure out where to 'not skimp' (i.e. sub/amp/install). So far it seems like the install is going to be the most challenging (and maybe most expensive) as there are great subs and amps out there, but it all comes down to...

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    I should've mentioned that I'm not looking for anything @ ~20Hz as I am aware that music doesn't play go that low. I simply was using that stat as a reference to what my home sub is capable of...

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    I'll get actual numbers. I just was gifted this vehicle so I don't have much info on it's dimensions. I won't argue the merits of a ported option, but when I think ported, I think larger surface area. Is it possible to do a couple 12"s under the rear seats maybe? Once again, just getting into...

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    Thanks guys. I'm still debating between sealed/ported as I did when having my HT sub built. I've noticed a lot of decent ~$500 subs out there and have been researching the following: - HDC3.112/HDC412 - DD 12" (DD3500? These get expensive and I believe they need a big enclosure?) - JL 12W7 -...

    Looking to have my cake and eat it too: High Output and SQ with a small footprint

    I'm pretty much completely new to car audio, but not to 'audio'. I like to think I have very large, very awesome custom built speakers in my 'theater room'. But when it comes to the massive amount of car audio variables, I am lost. Here's my situation, just looking for recommendations: - 2010...
