[QUOTE="T3mpest, post: 8188452, member: 560148"] You can easily get an aftermarket HU for under 300 if you willing to go used. I just got a Alpine 9887 which has that and much more for only 225 IIRC, for a friend. A 10inch sub, really ANY well designed sub should have no problems with 80hz bass lines. My current sub is a 21 and last setup was 2 15's, both of which could play MUCH higher than 80hz if you wanted them too, they could actually be used as dedicated midbasses if you could somehow fit them in front of you. While those are both a bit "extreme, getting a fast sound is all about getting proper frequency response and level matching. Deadening your doors will increase your midbass and that in turn makes it much easier to get your subwoofer to blend. Pick up a little extra, and if you find you have any rattles in the rear of the car you can try and stop those too, as those that draw the sound behind you make things sound slow and loose too. I don't have any experience with the pioneer champions, but unless their inductance is outrageously high, you shouldn't have a problem with 80hz. Which way was the woofer facing? Often if you fire the woofer towards the cabin, unless you seal off the back half of the trunk behind the woofer, you lose upper bass output. If you haven't, try firing toward the trunk latch. That keeps all the bass bouncing off the trunk back to you so it all stays in phase. [/QUOTE]
