The speakers under your seats are the factory subs/midrange. The are powered by the same amp as the rest of the speakers but the amp has a built in low frequency part you shoud read this My link Also might want to get a hold of Technic on that forum. he makes some nice harnesses that eliminate the need to cut anything. There is a lot of info on there about the sound in bmws just look around.

what year is your car?

In the trunk on the left is where my amps are also. There is a smaller silver amp with a 20 pin harness going into it which is the sub amp and a longer silver amp with a smaller harness which powers the rest of the system.

Sorry jdeuel20 my comments were directed at slim142

also I dont know exactly what system you have but in a 5series there is a separate amp for the subs that only sends a low signal. If your car is the same way make sure you have the LOC plugged in to a regular speaker wire not one of the sub wires.

I have a 2009 528xi with one ten in a ported box in the trunk and its hella loud. Do you have a separate bass knob or is your sub controlled by bass in the eq along with the rest of the system?

Is this deal still going?

Sundown, Any bstock 10 inch subs??? :bigok:

no ski pass, thats why I was thinking a more powerful sub.

I think I finally decided on a set up. Please tell me if this is optimal for my situation or if im going overboard. The car is a bmw 5 series, the sub will be in the trunk. The trunks tend to be sealed very well in these cars so I need the sub to penetrate. I listen to mainly hippity hop and rap. I want the best of both worlds trunk space left and good sound. 10" ICON ported box probably built to specs of the optimal one in the tech section sax1200d what do you guys think. The only thing I was thinking to change was to go with a cheaper amp. Any reccomendations?

2009

mac and cheese, how much for the amp

Im in get something mode Would the sa10 be at all comparible to the icon? I guess I wouldnt know the difference. I did have a jlw6 for while in a different ride . how does a jlw6 compare to a sa10?

I have some specific questions that might have already been answered and would be more than happy to search for them.

Thanks
