    Hello All,
    Installed a new Jenson stereo along with new Kicker door speakers. Was looking for more bass with a easy to install low profile subwoofer. After doing the stereo I realized I kinda suck at doing this type of work. Came out good just a lot of head scratching so easy install is really what would be helpful.
    Cheers
    :cheers:

    For bass my fav is top water plugs early and late in the day.

    (Sorry I can't help with the tunes)

    Edit: You might have more luck in the Audio forum.

    The RMS power rating of your stereo is most likely the culprit here. I have found that
    www.critchfield.com has the best after market stereos. The Kenwood brand are hard to beat and some
    models have 22 watts RMS x 4 channels. With multilevel bass boost functions.

    I had an under the seat subwoofer in my 01 Altima and with the Kenwood head unit
    and some nice door speakers sounded great with plenty of bass (not the fish)
    It is for sale if your interested.

    By the way OP it's "crutchfield" not "critchfield" in case you do a search.

    No salt water (tidal) bass around me.

    Mine was a fresh water reference.

    I may catch half the fish my friends do on worms and deeper rigs, but nothing beats the surface exploding for a topwater strike. :thumbsup:

    Nope, I bout a custom box for the back that is built to go around the bar running the length of the rear of the cab. I have MTX subs.

    My doors are 1" tweet and 6x9 mids, Rockford Fosgate

    Don't mention the B-A-s_S word or the fishermen will get their hooks in this thread again.
