Self Powered Subwoofer.. opinions? ideas?

[accordingtoome 10+ year member]

Greetings all, Im looking at some self powered sub boxes for my girls 2007 Mazda 3 hatch. She is an IT and uses her trunk almost every day so she needs to keep as much room as she can. Price is also an issue as im also installing a Viper 791 alarm system at the same time. Im trying to keep the cost down. Im looking at the following 4 subs so please tell me what you think.

Thanks peeps. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

For decent output they aren't that bad.Not anything to brag about but they do add the bass element.

i know im sorry though but the 10inch bazooka is too big.

what about the infinity bass link?

that is fairly compact and does about 300w i think?

False.

Go to Mazda3Forums.com

And look for their Stealth Box.

Fits flush, and takes up NO space. Enough room for a 8" sealed.

how can u hav a room for one of these things and not hav room for a sealed 8???

Why not just upgrade the stock speakers and add an amp to those?Won't bang but would give you the little bass you want and not take up any room.

pics inside that thread of the stealthbox.

I wanna say it's $175 loaded with an 8.

But I could be wrong.

False,,, who is selling it? i have been there and done that. seems no one is selling or making those. Plus i want the jack to stay right where it is. Its not my car so im limited.

I need to be able to lift up the cover in the trunk so that means i can only go about 7 inches deep to it will fit flush with the back of the seat.

If i can get a sub box that was only 7 inchs deep i would do it. If you look at the pic you will see what kind of room im dealing with. not much.

i like how this guy installed the basslink one. simple. and if you need the trunk in the hatch you can just pop the seat down and you have your whole trunk without giving up space.

thanks guys for helping me think this out a little //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

kenwood Woox read reviews here it is very very small.

INfinity basslink has much more output and would barely fit I beleive

Infinity BASSLINK Dimensions (H x W x D): 14-1/2" x 12-1/2" x 8" so an inch too deep, maybe you could mount to bottom of rear deck?
