Under seat Subs
« on: 19 June 2011, 21:56 »
Hi guys, I've seen these under seat subs in audio shops and on tinternet:
1. Are they any good?
2. Do they need an amp or do they come with built in amp.

Haven't a clue about audio electricary  and so wouldn't have a clue about wiring. I'm not into window popping, building flattening base, just some nice background base as I like to listen to all music including classical where you need some nice base.

Cheers Richard

If you want it unde ryour seat get a reasonably shallow mount 8 or 10inch (probably) and use the foot well space as a box.

What car is it in?
