What kind of speaker is that located in the pull down between the seats? Or is it a grill for the sub? Cool idea for the placement.

RE is a sub (available at walmart) & my installer made a box that had an RE & sounded pretty good! (one of the old systems in a sienna mini van

Makes sense. Worked for a company that had a big store out that way on 10.

Clean ....but i always rear fire my sub so it can load ...seems to get lower and deeper bass ....your box may be ported and ports loading off the side fender walls ..im not sure

i use to rear fire it, didnt make much difference. i like the sub wont get damaged, front firing, if i put stuff in the trunk

the box is sealed, not vented

That old school Phoenix Gold system is awesome. Thanks for posting it.

I decided to put a system together last year using a mix of old school and newer equipment. I installed it in a 2005 ext cab Duramax. I am very pleased with the sound quality.
The system is as follows.

Pioneer NEX 2660

1 Phoenix Gold MQ-430 running 2 pairs of Hertz Centro 6.5 component speakers.

1 Phoenix Gold MS-275 running a pair of JL Audio 10W3V3s in a 32 hz aero port box.
