Someone asked about the sound quality. I mean it's not a 12" sub, but you do get some nice bass out of it. I am definitely not yearning for more.

Just ordered one on eBay.

Is there an idiots guide to wiring this up somewhere ?

Like initial questions I have is the built in amp powering both subs and the two full drivers and does it expect line or speaker level signal ?

There are various threads saying to stuff the sub with synthetic pillow stuffing for better sound. I did my Boxster sub and Cayman footwell sub. My ear isn't refined enough to know if it made a difference but it's a fun w/e project and something to do with an old pillow.

What kind of synthetic pillow did you use?

The kind that doesn't contain feathers. When opened, you can grab a handfull of the polyfill stuffing out of the pillow and stuff it into the cavities of the subwoofer.
