Great, thanks for advice Dunk. By loosely, I take it you mean, without sticking it to any sides of the box? Cheers, Glen

Thanks dunk for the useful advice. I have already got my custom enclosure, and it is just a standard shap slant back box that goes in my boot. It has been made to measure so that it fits the slant on the back of my seat perfectly, to utilise all the space, keep the boot as free as possible...

I am about to fit a sub to a custom made enclosure, and was wondering what people's thoughts are on fitting acoustic wadding material to the insides of the box? I heard that putting wadding in has the affect of making the box appear larger to the speaker. But at the same time can weaken the...

I am about to install a 10" subwoofer in my car, and have narrowed the list down to the following: Alpine SWS-1023D ~ £85 JL Audio 10w3v3 ~ £130 Anyone with experience of these subwoofers care to comment on the best choice? I know the JL's will probably be better, but how much better...

Thanks Andy. I don't want to install it there, because I still want access to the amp controls. However, I've been advised by a local audio shop that the Sony XM-1S fits in there. So will try to get one of them cheap. Cheers, Glen

Anyone tried removing the Bose subwoofer for an 8L A3, and installing an amplifier there instead? The space looks pretty tight, so I'd be grateful if anyone has any advice. Thanks, Glen

Hi, Anyone know of a good mono/dual channel amplifier I can use to power a 10" sub, which will also fit neatly in the place where the Bose sub currently occupies? Also, while on the topic, which is better: a Mono amp, or a 2 channel sub in bridged mode? Cheers, Glen

Thanks a lot Andy. Is this the plug that goes straight into the current Bose Sub?

I'm interested in fitting a 2 channel, or mono amp to power a sub in the boot. I want to remove the Bose sub, as it keeps distorting under certain music, and put an amp in its place to power a new sub I'll place in the boot. Does anyone know where can I take the feed from for the amplifier...

Thanks for the advice Andy. If it bugs me too much, it might be a new sub.

Really? That is terrible for a big audio outfit like Bose to create a system that is allowed to do that under certain load.

Thanks for the advice guys. The problem only seems to happen on really low frequency music, where a lot of bass is used. I shall try your suggestion Andy. Thank you for your very descriptive explanation and picture. Just one question. Should I ever get distortion from the sub, even if it...

Hi, I have an 2001 S3 with Bose, and I was listening to the new album from Timberland recently, and discovered that the bass was making my sub distort like crazy. Does this mean my sub is bugged, or is the frequency of the music just too low for it? Cheers, Glen

Hi there, just to revive this thread, as I'm currently experiencing the same problem. Does anyone have any advice on how to get to the optical pickup? Cheers, Glen
