Found a really slick subwoofer, Looks like it was designed for us Options

[gereed75]

Had been contemplating a stereo upgrade. Had read all the threads. Wanted something that would require minimal disturbance from stock and be unobtrusive

Had already committed to a period correct Blau Frankfurt with the digital conversion. I knew that the Infinity Kappas were a good solution in the original speaker housings so went with those. In looking for a small powered sub I found the Pioneer TS WX010A. Chose it because it is about the smallest one out there and is a small 50 watt amp that requires no heavy wiring

Figured it’s small size would provide a variety of mounting options without have to cut up any interior stuff. What I did not know was how well it would fit. After taking out the foam filler block, I found that This thing fits in the recess in the passenger footwell like it was designed to be there. See pix below



I held it into place using the double face tape provided with the sub. This tape also nicely isolates the speaker so it does not rattle against the firewall/floor structure. Once the foam block is trimmed and put back into place the carpet covers it all and it essentially is undetectable.

The thing has great adjustability in gain and frequency. Both are turned way down and provides all the bass you could ever want in our small cabin. Paired with the Kappas it sounds great

Overall a very sanitary installation and a pleasing ( to me anyway) solution.

Thanks. Looks great! But are you saying that you didn't need to bring a new power lead from the battery for this? It seems to be recommended by everyone. I've looked into it but can't figure out how to get into the "snorkel" and through the tunnel without a massive amount of hassle. Any solid advice would be appreciated!

Easily done with the engine out when you can pull the snorkel kind of straight to fish a wire through and then pull the cable. Might be possible to get an actual fish tape with the loop on the end so it doesn't poke through the snorkel to make the bend with the engine in place, but will obviously be more work. I was surprised how much room there was in the snorkel to pull the amp cable through. I was prepared for a long fight and was done in about 10 minutes.. again... with the engine out though.
