Powered sub's

[etlsport]

A sub mounted in the rear door is awesome. I have a rockford fosgate 12" stage 3 shallow mount in a sealed enclosure. Amp is mounted under the drivers seat so there is no real loss of storage space and with a metal cage over it I dont have to worry about cargo shifting and damaging it. And it will BOOM.. Think I got the sub on amazon for 99 bucks a while back, and built the enclosure myself and covered it in vinyl to give a clean look

I never liked the idea of using the head unit to power the speakers and/or subs.

Instead i ran a entire new and high quality wiring and left untouched the factory wiring.

I purchase four good ( and expensive,though ) RCA wires to hook up the head unit to the digital EQ,then connected the amps with the EQ.
The results : better,quality sound.

Both,speakers and subs are all powered by the two four-channels amps,one for the speakers and the other exclusively for the subs (@ 4 ohms )
Thanks to the digital EQ I can squeeze better sound from the head unit instead of relaying only on the built-in EQ.
