does anyone have any good pictures of a del sol with subs in it?

Does the trunk even make sense? Won't it be louder outside than in the seats?

Where else can i put a sub? There is really no room behind the seat do do anything non-custom, and i am not sure i want to give up the 2 compartments behind the seat.

Thanks for your help.

 

subs are for ricers.. lol jk put it in the trunk

 

i have mine in the trunk and it sounds nice, although i havent herd them from the cabin. but if you haven't bought anything yet this is what i would get.

I have a 93 Del Sol with 2 12" Subs in the trunk, it works well, but you wont have much trunk space, and if you ever wanted to put the roof in the trunk, its a tight squeeze. i had to take the entire back paneling out to put the wiring through, which isnt that hard, but its a pain in the ***. i can put some pictures up if you want me to.

 

pretty much the only way to make subs sound decent in a sol is something like the stealthbox, or custom with bigger/more powerful subs.

 

You've got a Sol. Space is of a premium in cars like that. It'll be tough to squeeze a sub in a convenient location. IMO, I'd ditch the sub in favor of having space for, i dunno, a clean shirt, or whatever will fit, lol

In the trunk, in a custom box sounds like your best bet to retain as much space as possible and still get a good sound. But a sub that's too powerful will jostle everything loose in a tiny car like that, and you may not enjoy the proceeding rattliness of your ride.

 

bump for some more thoughts about subs in the trunk

 

The JL unit is very expensive. And only contains two W3 8's, I think thats a pretty big ripoff.
A custom made design will look cleaner and have better sound. I guess that you can tell that I'm not a very big JL fan.
You might be better off looking at some of the Car Audio based forums.

 

pics would be great<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by DriveaHonda827 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">I have a 93 Del Sol with 2 12" Subs in the trunk, it works well, but you wont have much trunk space, and if you ever wanted to put the roof in the trunk, its a tight squeeze. i had to take the entire back paneling out to put the wiring through, which isnt that hard, but its a pain in the ***. i can put some pictures up if you want me to.</TD></TR></TABLE>

put the subs under water turn it on stick your head under water and listen....sounds great..

 

i say pull out your glove box, and make a custom box there!
that'd be HOT
and you'd possibly bring female passengers to climax....

mmmmmm.climax.

with the sub in the trunk, does it sound you have bees in it?

bzzzzzzzzzzz, bzz bzz, bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Hmmmm, whare the glove box is... sounds like alot of work, but not a bad idea.

 

throw the subs away or give them to some ricer. Then bring the girls to climax with other things. Like

 

why bass a del sol?
then you couldnt hear your exhaust roaring down the roads....in your case probly fart can roaring down the street

IMO dont put any in the del sol, bass is obnoxious and is for people who want attention...like emo haircuts and cutting yourself

 

put two 10s,, thats wat i have

really?
where?
the trunk?
real men have a strutbar back there

find me someware i can still have my strutbar, be able to put my top in, and not have to take out my back console and i will PUT some woofers in my car

 

what about where the spare tire is?

 

Seriously guys, stealthbox it. The trunk solutions are all half-assed. You lose trunk space, a way to store the lid, and oh yeah, the trunk on a Sol is pretty well sealed, so most of your bass doesn't even make it to the passenger cabin. The Stealthbox puts the thump where you want it, behind your seats and pointed at your body.

I don't work for JL or anyone related to them, but I've had Stealthboxes in most of my cars, and damn I love them.

 

I had one 10impp in my del sol, located in the trunk.
It sounded fine, wasn't too loud outside and was just the right amount of bass in the cabin.

 

no if im gunna put a woofer in i want it to sound like my car just exploded. if i was to do it all i would go big or not at all
