Default Factory acoustics

I have given up with modifying and I enjoy the factory sound system. It really is not bad for factory. I don't ride with the top down too much so it is not a huge problem that I don't have a system that vibrates the houses.

Side effect of installing a bestop instatrunk (the metal one that doesn't hinge at the top) is better bass response as it acts like a big sub enclosure. Not exactly cost effective but a nice side effect!

I think it sounds great, hits hard enough to shake all 3 mirrors....
I did this, and; while it didn't rattle the windows I could feel the sub. I stuffed box with dynamat. I wish I could say huge difference? The EQ adjustments worked best.

I recently added dynamat and polyfil to speaker enclosures and sub. WOW. What a huge difference!
