Default Here is my bass idea for my 2002 Trans Am

Seriously thinking about going with the stealthbox on drivers side.

See if this sounds like it will work. Should be some good bass with all of that power running to the ten.
Pioneer also calls for small sealed boxes.

I do have a question on mounting depth. Which is at 6 11/16 inches.

I could wire that sub down to ohm, which is watt the amp can handle.

I don't have to have bone vibrating bass anymore. But I want something decent and punchy. How is the bass response in these stealthboxes? Better yet, how is it with a speaker that can handle lots of power?




Pioneer TS-W2502D2 10 In. Champion Series PRO Subwoofer
Champion Series Pro 10" sub with dual 2-ohm voice coils
Specifications

Sealed Box Volume: The sealed box sizes recommended by Pioneer range from 0.35 ft³ to 0.7 ft³; within this range the ideal size is 0.6 ft³.

Vented Box Volume: The vented box sizes recommended by Pioneer range from 0.6 ft³ to 1.2 ft³; within this range the ideal size is 0.9 ft³. The ideal port size for a 0.9 ft³ enclosure is 3" diameter x 3.75" long.

Single Reflex Bandpass Volume: The bandpass box sizes recommended by Pioneer range from 0.6 ft³ per chamber to 1.0 ft³ per chamber; within this range the ideal size is 0.8 ft³ per chamber. One 3" diameter x 8" long port should be used in an enclosure with 0.8 ft³ chambers.

Power Handling: The woofer has two 2Ω voice coils; each coil can handle up to 400 watts RMS (800 watts total).


This will be the amp pushing the ten.

I would like a stealth box on the dr s also. Does anyone make a box like that with a built in amp for the sub?

(non-sponsor link removed)
i used the kicker 8'' subwoofer...fits perfectly to the specs of the box

Alpine MRV-M250 Mono subwoofer amplifier

Alpine type-s speakers all around

since the car is a "hatch back" it sounds great..hopefully it works out

The minimum I will go will be a 10. I was just thinking that speaker is perfect for those boxes because Pioneer calls for a small sealed box. Then jam it with close to 1,000 watts. It should hit pretty decent and sound pretty clean being it is sealed.

Anyone ever run a ported 15 in a Trans Am or Camaro? If so, how did it sound?

I have a ported stealthbox holding an 8" jbl gto804 and it hits harder than the sealed 10" I had in the same box when it was originally sealed off. its punchier and weighs less than the 10" as well
