I have 2, 10 inch Audiobahn subs under my supercrew backseat. Amp under passenger seat. They get the job done. 450$ for amp, wiring, box, and subs. It doesnt get much cheaper than that. Pics in my gallery

Hambone,

Do they hit real hard? What is your opinion of the audiobahn products? They seem to be very inexpensive compared to other big names....I am thinking about going with the same set up. Where did you get the box?

Unloadit,

Yeah its everything. Sorry theres no seperation. I am having photos placed on a Photo CD at a Local 1-Hour Photo place. As far as subs...I placed two M3 subs by Memphis.... WOW THATS POWER FOR YOU. The power window module is not a problem you still have plenty of space to place an amp. As an amp I would recoment the 250/1 by JL Audio. I roll by and other vehicles windows shake

One more thing...the box has an internal divider which you can stuff with poly-fil which helps deliver a hard pounding hit... as far as the box it sits flush with the back seat. My gallery will show by 11*20*2004 4:00pm

Amp and subs are a must. I have a 2-10" bazooka sub setup with a profile 600w amp, two alpine components in front and pioneer 4 ways in back. I think it sounds great. Check out the pics.

When you look at the audiobahn subs you can tell they are made good. They are very solid. They have a one year warranty, even through ebay, so if they blow you can send them in and they will send you a new one. I also like the Rockford Fosgate HE's. They are very loud for the price also. I think they have a deeper mounting depth though.

Do you have the Profile Clarus? It looks real good and is very inexpensive, but I wonder if it is a quality amp??

I have a California series amp. Also very inexpensive but gets the job done. The Profile amps are rated at max. If you are going to compete in a sound competition these are not the amps, if you are going for good sound at reasonable prices they are very good. Have had mine for 5 years and still is good! I may upgrade for more power, but will wait for a melt down.

Just finished the install on my 04. As stated before i installed a jl stealthbox with a jl 250/1 amp and a jl 300/4 on mt bostons in the doors. All i can say is WOW! i cannot belive the bass this little box with 1 10 puts out. I have installed many systems thru the years even a few competition systems. I worked for a high end car audio company for many years after high school so i am familliar with car audio products and i am blown away by the stealthbox. if youre looking for a big boom system this aint for you but if you want a clean looking box with great sound quality check it out. I will post pics in the next few days.

Xtreme1, where did you get the stealthbox at? I looked on the JL webpage and they don't list one for the 2004/05's.

Also if I may ask how much did you pay for the box?

Thanks,

Xtreme1, where did you install your amp? I am thinking of getting two Boston Amp and putting them behind the rear seats. Also what kind of head unit are you running?


Thanx!

daorte - I purchased the box thru a local mobile electronics shop here in La. It was back ordered and took 2 weeks to come in. Retail on the box is 599 dealer cost is 359 I paid 429............................................... ................................. FX04 - I mounted my 4 channel amp under the rear seat on the passenger side and my 1 channel under the front passenger seat behind the heater duct. The only reason i dont wanna mount my amps on the back wall is cuz they cant breathe back there. I will probably build a amp rack to go under the rear seat and mount both of them there eventually. Im not sure how big the boston amps are but the jls are pretty small.
