I just bought a box from ZEnclosure (Mike) and it is awesome~! I went with (2) 10" Kickers - I think CVR102's and it's powered with a Kicker 800.5 amp along with the rest of my speakers... It sounds great~!

Did you replace the kickers with the ones on the doors?

I used component tweeters in the dash, 6.5's in the door, and 3.5's behind the seats with the (2) - 10's in the back...

Its a tiny car, and the way the subwoofer is positioned the bass bounces off the back window. It hits lovely. To the point where it's to bassy for my taste. I had to dial the bass back. the only reason why I went that route was because I basically had everything except the subwoofer box. I only wanted Something like two steps above the tech package Bose system. My system is definitely overkill for my taste BUT cost me near nothing lol

I always liked Alpine. I ran a single 12 type R with a 1000 mono Alpine amp and it was crazy loud and sounded clear and crisp. I had it in my Eclipse.

I have my system setup with factory door speakers, and an alpine type s w/ apline amp setup as a Mono sub. Basically all the bass is sent to the sub only. Very clean and clear setup. My amp is small so it hides underneath the foam that is used to make the truck carpet sit flat.

Do you have the Bose system? Maybe that’s why because the base, the sound is horrible

I don't mind the base speakers... I removed the OEM crossovers and run the base speakers in an active config using 'network mode' on my pioneer headunit. Have a little 450w mono amp powering an 8" Alpine Type R.

Not going to rattle any neighboring vehicles, but it's enough for me... kind of the sweet spot of price/sound/features/storage space.
