[QUOTE="SpeedEuphoria, post: 7085994, member: 623992"] If your going to have an 8" speaker hanging and not in a box, you need a specific type of sub called IB(Infinite baffle), do a search for it. Basically you can uses other subs in IB but some are better than others. In general the subs since they are in free air take less power, like maybe 1/2 or less of the rated rms power. Most who do IB tell you it all about cone area and xmax, 2x 15's is one of the most common setups for IB. You also need to seal off the inter cabin and baffle for the speaker to the other side of the speaker making the trunk a large box. Basically a speaker in a box will be louder and handle more power So consider that and sealing it off may be more work than you want to do, where a box in the trunk is an easy compromise So you may want to find a small amp and wire it to your current speakers to see if thats a nice amount of bass or not. if not consider what I said above and figure which way you want to go. Just remember it takes power to play bass so your headunit is not enough even for the door speakers to have much of any bass. Another thing, consider sealing your doors good as this will increase the bass from your door speakers [/QUOTE]
