In the Camaro, I don't see how you can have a sub and still fit Golf clubs....I already have to take my Driver out and put them in seperately to make them fit.

I have the ******** driver-side enclosure with a 10" JL Audio sub and my golf bag AND my daughter's junior golf bag will fit. It takes a little finagling with the driver and sometimes I take the driver out.

Here are some pictures of my setup. I have two 15" Mmats Pro Audio subs. Powered by two 1,500 watt RMS Mmats amplifiers. So there's 3,000 watts RMS for the subs and 4,000 watts RMS total for the system.

Two 10" alpine type-s subs get more than enough bass for me with this setup. Complete system is 1000W, all alpine

. Absolutely love it, Used phastek aqua LED's for box and interior.

UPDATE: Had the carpet done recently. New photo attached

Mine is ported. The box design is a bit unusual but it does port into the cabin of the car.

Knockoutpie · 01-31-2014, 02:58 PM

THAT'S WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO TODAY! Seeing all these trunks and since I have my sub box in and the tire, the plastic piece is a bit hard to take out, gotta cut it in half and put a hinge in there.

JL 10's, 600 watts to the subs and 100 watts per channel to the doors, and 6x9s. Alpine head unit. DVD INA-W900BT

Can you really tell a huge different between HU power and adding an extra amp for the speakers? Thinking about doing it but not sure yet.

Knockout, you can tell a difference. All of my speakers in my car have replaced with aftermarket speakers. I don't even use any of the power from the Head unit, it all comes from the amps. The primary reason for replacing your head unit is the noise to signal ratio can be matched with the higher HU. If your stock HU is outputting 100, but your speakers are rated to over that you will never get the maximum out of your system.

I had to send in my dash kit to alpine for a recall, and had to put my stock head unit back in, I was still using the amps and subs, but I could never turn it up all the way with the stock head unit. I would get some distortion or also know as THD, total harmonic distortion. If I turned them up in volume, I would risk damaging my subs and speakers. So I just played it without cranking it. I hope I explained it correctly, this is how it was explained to me, my installer basically said don't crank it up real hard and you will be fine.
