I have a tahoe and im looking for a small powerful sub ..i need recommendations from you bass heads. I want to buy a dope sub. I plan on installing the sub in the rear cargo area behind the panel. i will be taking the jack out and relocating. I found these examples so you guys have an idea of what i wanna do.
these are how finished installs look all closed up:
This guy on tahoe fourms said he made a box and just shoved it in there with the jack:
Regardless of anything i want to get to done "right" with what i can afford "now" which is $125 before shippping. I live in downtown L.A. and get shit for pretty cheap so i don't want to spend more then that really. There is a place near me that has RE products for ebay express prices so im thinking about RE..
-My main concern is buying a sub that is to big and will over power that location. I want it to fit behind the panel and at the same time not rattle the shit out of the panels and the rear of the truck.(is this possible????).Its really close to the truck frame but the sub must go there...
-I am willing to loose spl rather than install in different location.
-Im hoping that there is a way that i can get nice sized sub woofer in that location without it sounding like rattled shit.
-I currently have a clarion apx1300. I am willing to upgrade if i can actually install a larger sub that needs it. if not ill use this.
