Also, given that the Z cabin volume is ONLY 51.6 cubic feet, or 48.6 cubic feet with driver, 45.6 with driver and passenger, don't you think that a 13" sub, even a shallow mount, might just be a tad too much output for someone that wants a bass level pretty much at the same level as the artist and/or sound engineer intended? Just how much do you want to overload the space given cabin gain? Oh, I forgot ...everbody rides around in NH in the winter with the windows down...
BTW, I used to live in Atkinson.

All depends on what you listen to. Having a 13" sub does not necessarily mean you are tryong to drone out the rest of the system, ot overpowering the sound with bass, that is why you have a or should have a Sub level control to be able to turn it down... You are trying to match the artusts recording, but it would depend on who the artist is as well... You definitely will get it pretty close with the 13TW5... 13Tw5 was designed to give you the responce of a 12" Sound quality Subwoofer... Not intended to sound like a 13" sub. Until you listen to one you can not make a judgement...
13TW5 is not made to sound like a 13" sub necessarily. Design is so you can get a slim sub without sacrificing sound quality. But it does take advantage of the surface area to push the air... It is a very fast moving motor structure and it will and can hit as hard as a 10" sub. It can produca a snappy hard hitting bass, the main characteristics of the sub is best descriibed as a cross between a 12w3v3 and an all mighty 12w6v2.
