Are you wanting a seperate box in the back or do you want to make a vain attempt at using the stock location to achieve some boom? Also, do you have the stock head unit or an aftermarket one? |

I actually replaced the head unit with a high power one and ran that to new speakers. Then I added an amp which runs the stock subs. You'll be suprised at what they can do with some power to em. |

Be careful though. You CANNOT just replace the head unit. Because all discos have a factory amp you will get distortion and an annoying popping noise when you turn off the aftermarket head unit. This popping (from the head unit being turned off a millisecond before the amp)is amplified and could blow out your speakers. If you want a new head unit, you will need to replace your amp too. Your best bet for cheap bass is to buy a self powered tube and wire it directly into your rear speakers. You will still need power from the battery though. |

Check with "Lynden" if he still lurks on the dweb. He put together a decent sounding system without breaking the bank. If he doesn't have his email posted search the 2001 archives. I'm pretty sure that's where I read about his system. |

I am looking to replace my front speakers with better ones. Any recommendations? I would only replace them if there were speakers that fit the existing speaker sights. |

I had two 10 inch subs in a box, laying around in my garage and I wanted an easy way to throw them in the disco. So I took the rear door panneling off and the door subs, cut the wires to the door subs and rerouted the wires to the two 10's in the box. I was totally suprised that that little amp in the back could push the 2 10's but it does, nothing like they could be with the correct amp, but the bass is 5 times better than before and is pretty clean. It has been about a year and the amp has not burned up yet. So if you have some subs laying around and are bored I recomend this, but not for a long term fix. |

Infinity Baselink powered sub. It's compact, clean sound, mounting fit (horz or vert), metal grill and reasonably priced at $400. |
