soon enough i will have the hilux 2.5.. because i cant live without the bass.. izzit possible to install a subwoffer inside that car?
not the underseat active subwofer..
ive done some research on that and found this 10" double coil n magnet but the size it quite small..

my question is
1) will it have the THUMP~ like the normal 12" sub?
2) how much will it cost?
3) any good place where have a knowledgeable installer in and around kota kinabalu area?

i heard that that yu classic quite populer

get a shallow sub from pioneer... 12" models available...

Pioneer USA Catalog
Video of the previous models in action

yes i know its from Pioneer USA... but there is a lot of pioneer authorized dealers that could get their hands on these...

and they really could fit into the back of your rear seats nicely... installed a handful of these in hilux when i was a "car-audio-engineer" years ago... biggrin.gif

the sound quality yes the same as a normal 12"...

it gives softer rumbles though... if you are really comparing it... but in terms of SPL, the punch and rumbles... its all still there...

its easier to drive as well... because the cone is significantly smaller surface area and lighter... the excursions are very "dramatic" biggrin.gif

depends on the ohm value i think... find anything that is suitable for the power and the ohm values then you are good to go... smile.gif

personally i would suggest a monoblock... i find them better... smile.gif
