Default Whatcha guys do about for BASS in our cars????

The previous owner of my S2000 did a simple setup with a deck and components but the car lacks bass especially with the top down

What do you guys suggest?

I did some measurements in the passenger footwell by the firewall but not too keen on losing leg room. There is no space behind the seats.

If we use the trunk, what have you guys done?

Does JL Audio have a pre-made enclosure?

thanks,
rick

Yes, it's called a stealthbox. It works great, but it's expensive. Check the FAQ's in the electronics forum.

Generally, even with the top down, the bass is too big to fit in the S2000 When I need to carry a bass, I use a mini-van.



Or do you mean the "other" kind of bass?

How much bass you need?

If you go naaz, please don't ask for two of the big ones. We tried, they won't fit.
