Slim Subs?

[Guest]

ive had the sony slim sub in my 4x4 a while ago, worked real well, powered by a soundstream lil wonder amp.

looking at putting in a sub into the B4 and saw the slim sub that Fusion do that is flat and can fit under the seat.

anyone put one in or had a slim sub under they seat? sound good?

if anyone has mounted them under the seats? or am I not allowed to ask question on this forum?

[Guest]

under seats is very common, one of teh reasons there so small

its a sub, they dont make real sound they make bass, if its under ur seat you will just feel it more

whatever man. look, what else is this forum for? just talking trash and loping about?

im trying to extract information on either products or gear so I can make more informed decisions when I buy the stuff, and part of the process in executing that task is, ah yes, asking questions.

get used to it.

well to be honest, it does not concern me overly, I come here to seek knowledge, not talk shit & like I said, part of that is asking questions so, as I said, they will either have to get used to it as their 'crap' does not bother me in the slightest.

[driftrex]

why bother with a crappy slim line sub under the seat when you have a perfectly large boot for a decent sub? i dont imagine the sound quality to be all that great with it under the seat. mine you i've never heard one before, wonder why no one has them lol

[familyman]

Haven't heard one under seat but since sub tones are non-directional, don't see benefit in doing so other than for female passengers ;)

Had a slim sub once, total shit. I use all Kicker now and never looked back

Like said Ive had slim subs before, worked quite well, just never thought of underseat mounting. In a ute we had them behind the seats and result was fine. given they are just moving air really as its all freq below whatever your LPF set at, they technically could go anywhere, ie boot but would much rather them under seats. Im going to listen to some soon, let you know how I get on.

Get a good grille for the sub too or you will be dropping change and mcdonalds chips into the speaker cone constantly and that ****s annoying. Ask me how i know

Under seat subs are factory equipment on some USDM Legacys and ive heard one in a volvo. Wasnt particularly impressive. Especially when earlier models had twin 10inch subs mounted behind the rear seats.

Your problem is that you get all uppity and defensive for no reason even when people are genuinely trying to help.

Case in point:

So ive heard, quite surprised they were factory on some, pretty cool but then again, I guess they get ripped out and replaced!

Those flat subs are good for space-restricted areas, but i wouldn't recommend them for an under-seat install. They do still need a bit of a box, and you won't get buggar all space for a box under a seat.

I'd stick with putting it on your boot, and if you still wanted to save on space / weight, get a slim line one and make a box for it that rests up against the rear seat.
