Powered sub suggestions
I just bought a 2010 Rubicon with the premium stereo, which isn't to bad, but needs more bass. Does anyone have a suggestion on a powered sub I could fit under the driver or passenger seat? If it helps, I typically listen to rock, and my last two vehicles had a 1000 RMS amp/sub combo.
Kenwood makes one and you can get it for around $160 and kicker makes a hideaway and you can get it for $299. My wife and I both have 2014 JKU and I put the Kenwood in hers and the Kicker in mine. While the Kenwood sounds decent and adds a little bass to the base sound system the Kicker blows it away. The Kenwood has some sort of restrictor on the wiring and when you remove it, the unit does become surprisingly louder but still nowhere near the kicker hideaway. My wife likes a little thump for her music but I listen to a lot of hip hop and the kicker pounds!! The kicker is 150watts RMS and the Kenwood is only 75watts RMS. Kicker all the way if you want more bass. I’m thinking of getting another for under the passenger seat.
Thanks guys. I have a 10" that would fit in the back, but I don't wanna take up the space if I can help it. For how much bigger these have gotten over the years, it seems like they could put some of that extra space behind the seats.
