6 inch sub

I just added a six inch sub between my center console and the back seat, it is powered by an audiopipe amp. Will post pics soon.
It's not very loud, but it does add a bit of richness to the sound.

it's a crossfire in a custom box. I would love to go bigger but there is no room behind the backseat of the 4 door ranger.

Hey Kyle, did you see the sub box part express built in the last mini-catalog thing?? It had 4 Tang band subs and a 500W BASH amp. Cool as hell.... They said it was "rumbling" ----- hell yes.

Also, JL has a new 6" sub but if you're looking for output, don't go with JL.

But when going with a 6 inch your not ever going to get anything amazing. I think a 6x8 would be louder.

you are right i did not expect to get anything amazing but it is ok. I just wished the 4 door ranger had about another 2 inches behind the back seat, cause then i would have dropped in a pair of Kenwood 12's that I have.

unless its a 6x8 sub, a 6" sub will be better, because midwoofers arnt the best at reproducing bass

Yeah, any regular 6x8 will probably have a tuning frequency of about 50-60 hz. The 6" Tang Band subwoofers are at 35hz... much different

It's not their job to produce it in the first place. They just cover mid-range correct?
