'Vert Monsoon System Gypped! So why were 'Vert Monsoon systems Gypped?! The coupe versions also received two subs in the rear -- seems like a pretty bone-headed move, if you ask me.
Anyone here add in some subs to their 'vert? Where did you mount, and what hardware used? Pics?!
TIA

I think you hit on the root of the problem. Where would you install the extra subs in a vert? Just drive a little slower when you want to hear the music better!

I put a Boston Acustic 10 inch sub in a ported box with a Diamond Audio amp in my trunk and it sounds fantastic........with the top up lol. I also added an Alpine 9886 deck and alpine type s door speakers. A lil mix and match but I think it sounds great!

Mine had this in it when I got it, took it out, sounded like crap and vibrated the truck lid and plate, running bone stock monsoon w/ipod mod. For the lil I drive the car it works fine for my needs.
Baddest vert setup I have seen and I have seen it IN person too has added a 12" sub INTO the rear fold up seat, totally stealth, in fact here is his interior and the sub is IN the back seat; https://ls1tech.com/forums/stereo-el...back-seat.html

Yep, it doesn't get any better than having JohnyBs's set up in a vert if you want a subwoofer.
Unless you go with a VERY powerful setup, no vert would sound good with the top down but going with a very large bass package would just rattle your car.
I'm personally getting rid of my Alpine 10" with thats in a bulky box that takes up half of my rear well. A good headunit, component speakers and a 8" sub goes a long way IMO.
Check out Alpine's "thin line" subwoofers, the mounting depth isn't alot.

I originally had just put some 8" subs I had out of an old set of truck boxes when I installed JB's box. Last week I replaced them with a set of RE Audio 8" and it's a major improvement! Found a deal online for 50 a piece... I also swapped out all the cabin speakers with the kit from Kee Audio as well. I'm happy now!

These are Alpine SWR-T10 ,10" Thin Subwoofer (4Ω) but they are pricey $499 each since they are just being announced into market.
According to their website
"The Type-R Thin subwoofer series combines the intense low-bass performance and ground-shaking output of the traditional Type-R subwoofers in a thin package optimized for extremely small enclosures."

Yea, as I recall the coupe Monsoon subs are dual-8", and it sounds SO much better than the 'vert.
