Has anyone manage to replace the Rockford Fosgate sub that came with the GTS with an aftermarket one while still using the stock enclosure? Or do I have to get a new enclosure? Thinking of getting two subs, one will go where the RF used to be and one will be on the right side to balance things out. Would the stock RF amp be enough to add another sub or should I get another amp dedicated to one/both subs?

Sorry for the questions, I don't really know much about car audio. This will be my first time getting into aftermarket car audio parts.

Thanks in advance.

 

wish i could help you..but i have no idea whats in the 08's S & S package..

i havn't seen or heard anything about the sub or the amp..

 

the stock amp is crap i took it out... plus it makes the install of other things much easier

 

The EVO IX has a sub enclosure with the S&S package... I tried to replace the sub in it with and higher quality, but there wasn't enough depth and it would hit the wheel well. That would of been Just To Easy I guess... I personally can't even hear the sub even when turned all the way up.. So my plan is to put my sub box in the car, but it adds weight and takes up space which I DON"T want...

 

I tired but failed so I just got a Box with 2 12's and 750 watts

 

I think my stock sub is dead. It's producing a scratchy sound when I opened up the trunk. Dealer said replacement won't be here for another month due to the Christmas holidays so I'm just gonna go ahead and put in an aftermarket sub (or two) and amp in there.

For your enclosure, did it take up all of your trunk space?

 

Why not wait, get the replacement sup under warranty, take it out and try and sell it. Then replace with aftermarket. I know anything aftermarket will need more airspace, plus it will sound wayy better with a bigger box, and a new amp.

 

Replacement sub's not gonna be here til January 2008.

You're right though. I could probably just get the aftermarket subs and amp now and wait til the replacement comes in. After all, it's almost boxing day here in Canada so I'm sure there'll be deals to be had for car audio parts. =)

 

Most of it yes, I have about 1foot in front of the box, I pushed it as close as I could to my rear seats, look at my cardomain for pics.

 

Replacement sub? is it a better sub coming out or what? never heard anything about it.

 

He is having the current sub replaced under warranty there is nothing different just a new sub, since it was blown, speaking of which i have a blown tweeter and getting it replaced as soon as i can get it in the shop, just got mailed the "product is in" letter took about 1 week or so . Do have to say they send me a lot of mail sorry to hear a delay until next year.
