ThwopKing Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 Well just picked up the new whip...2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara edition..loaded up. It has the top of the line infinity navi system..but yes its pretty weak. I know im changing out the front stage and its very muddy and just belnds all the music together. The tweeters mounted on the dash sound like tiny mid range speaker. But the worst is the factory 7in sub in back....just a powered 7in midbass really. So im lookiong to add subs first since i have my ED NINE.1 amp just laying around now. Looking at shallow mount subs because i dont want to put myED 15's in it and kill all the rear storage area. Ive been looking and thinking about the Pioneer shallow mounts...the top of the line ones. Someone suggested the Fosgates...but then I found the Koles.. http://koleaudio.com/products_woofers_mfw.html and they seem pretty promising...and I found them for under 100 bucks brand new. About 130 for the pioneers. So if anyone has any shallow mount experiance im all ears!

Smoove Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 I am currently running a shallow 10" Fosgate in a sealed box in my 350z. It;s good clean bass being powered by the rear channels of a 4 channel fosgate amp. The sub is getting about 200wrms and the is tuned with a DD-1 Quote 2 Team Fi 15's v1 2 DD M5's 970amps of Alt 6th order blowthroughThe truck Blowthrough build : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/155555-smooves-1996-chevy-ext-cab-c1500-slow-build/The 350z build : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/170694-smooves-2003-nissan-350z/ My FB page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Smooves-Car-Audio-and-performance/719746144805343 Team Fi Audio http://www.ficaraudio.com/
ThwopKing Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Posted March 28, 2012 how would you guys compare them to normal depth subs...as far as output?

412 CVX Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 They suck lol. they can't have nearly as much linear excursion as regular subs. Quote Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.
BobbyG2 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 If mounting depth is an issue, I'd get the Sundown SD-2 Series, and make it work: http://sundownaudio.com/index.php/products/subwoofers/item/sd-series.html?category_id=2 Quote *New vehicle and system coming soon.*
CJSmith Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 Kole audio sucks sooo bad IMO, try memphis or sound stream shallows. Quote *Rebuid in progress*
audiolamb6 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 i have one of the pioneer's and it sucks my bro has a kicker runnin off a 300.1 and it does pretty damn good but it needs a better encloser i'd say try to listen to as many as u can Quote
