compact sub

OK i have the standard headunit and recently replaced all the speakers with Pioneers and talk about a world of difference! Can hear the highs soooo much better, no more muffled highs

BUT I now am a little under powered in the bass department I figure since the new Pioneers are at rated higher power I am loosing some umph..

So is anyone running a bass tube or a compact sub. I dont want to change the head unit just want better bass. I was thinking a bazooka tube or an 8-10" sub, I dont want to make this a big investment in time effort budget or loose my cargo space.

I wish I could take the 5.1 surround sound from my computer and that little powered woofer that rocks the house and stick it in my car.

Suggestions and Pics please.........

You dont really need a sub if you get a nice set of 6x9's and an amp.

just amp the rear 6x9's and you will be fine.



Also, remember, you can not only damage speakers by overpowering them, but by underpowering them also!
