hmmnnn yea not sure. Im the type that would rather save up a bit and get a higher quality. I mean, there are tons of speakers out there, im sure you could find something cheap, used,...whatver and then fit that into a box of some sort...

Less than $200 for sub, box and amp might be hard though... good luck!

Yeah I'm not looking for a medium or large amount of bass. I just want the bass that a set of 6x9's would normally produce. But since we dont have that option in the Z, I figured I would find an alternative, that fits nicely and doesn't get in the way of anything.

look into a bazooka tube. I think Mike ran one on his Z, and was able to hide it under the rear deck, behind the strut bar.

I run 2 8's in my Z and I love the sound. Not too much, not too little. Goes well with a set of components.

Pics installed?

I'm really just looking for more bass then I have now. I don't want to be rumbling the damn street with bass from rap songs. I just want to add bass to the spectrum that my current component speaker setup isn't giving me enough of. When I turn up the bass all of the way, the 6.5's give out. Not meaning they stop working, they just can't handle too much bass from my new headunit.

Would your bazooka come with the amp you used to power it?

I'm just looking for a solution that would add more bass to my current setup and even out the current overpowering of the mids and highs. My other goal with this is to not sacrifice space being that the Z is already short on that.

Just checked out crutchfield; saw this: http://www.crutchfield.com/p_204BTA8...00.html?tp=114
Is this a 8" bazooka tube that has a built in amp?? If so, this would be perfect.
