My girlfriend got a system put in at best buy a few years ago but took it out and stuck it in the garage about 6 months later because she missed having the trunk space. 2 12" KFC-3009 woofers and 1 KAC-7201 amp. All are still in like new shape.
I bought a 1969 lincoln coupe and i want to put some bass in the trunk. I remember her system not sounding very good. Could have been that bestbuy didn't install it correctly or it could have been that she needed a second amp? I really don't know.
My question is can these products sound good? Can i try and find/ebay a matched amp and improve performance? I would try and match it for mounting aesthetics also.
Is the single amp worth saving? Would the woofers sound better with an additional or different amp? Is one or the other the 'problem'? Or do they both **** and i should start over?
I basically want enough bass in the trunk to make the neighbors angry. I know that the existing gear as it is right now wont cut it. Did best buy miss something that would have made a night and day difference with this system? Would i be better off getting a high end JL Audio or Focal single woofer with a top end mono amp?
Thanks in advance for your responses. I need the advice and direction of the experts.
