Cool Bass Upgrade

[savoir-faire]

I have been considering the Kenwood KSC-SW1 (http://www.crutchfield.com/S-beJu64CMegu/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=51000&I=113KSCSW1&id=review) for an upgrade to my "hi-fi" system. Seems simple to install, is unobtrusive, and cost-effective. Does anyone have any experience with this one? If not, I will report back with my findings. There seem to be no permenant mods. Meaning, I can remove and sell this thing, or move it to a new car if I sell this box.

I myself am not a car stereo guru but that unit seems pretty cool. The price is tolerable as well. I don't listen to my stereo that much, but when I do, it would be nice to have more bass.

Where were you thinking of installing it on your car?

I actually ordered one for $183 including tax and shipping. I believe it may work either under the seat or behind the seat. I ordered it to see if it was dimensionally feasible. I just wondered if anyone else had tried something like this.

I have been looking into options for upgrade as the stereo sounds terrible IMHO. I went to a couple of shops who had scary technicians that quoted me even scarrier prices ($2,000 to 3,000). I am trying this in combination with the rear speakers to see how that goes (about $400).

I can't put anything behind my seats nor under them, not even a light jacket or sweater!. If you get this to work do take pix.

In my old Eclipse, I just put an 10" bazooka sub in the trunk and was able to feel the bass, somewhat. Has anyone ever attempted to put a powered sub in the front or rear trunk? I thought that the bass can be placed anywhere and you still can feel it. I do not know if because of the mid-engine which might affect this bass theory. Just a thought!
