Any guess as to how this will sound? This weekend I am installing in the bird, a Kicker L7 10" in a Sub Thump driver side stealth box and a Kicker ZX500.1 Mono Amp.
I have upgraded the sail subs to Kicker CVT's earlier, and other than a USA Spec Ipod interface I am stock for the rest of the audio.
I honestly have no idea the level of bass output my setup is going to put out.
I think I may have went a little overboard on the amp and sub, but I wanted quality stuff so I can tune as much distortion out of the factory speakers and sail subs.
You guys think I will be fairly happy with my setup for now? I listen to mostly rock music, no rap or anything with super booming bass.

As I suspected, too much bass for the rest of the factory system. I have the gain on 1/4 and the bass still overpowers the music even with the volume barely up on the radio. The factory EQ is nice to be able to make quick adjustments and fine tuning for different types of music.
I can not believe how loud the bass hits inside the car and outside you can barely hear it. The F-body acousicts are very good IMHO. Nice to have that hatch back there.

I do, the Kicker Amps have a remote bass ***. The Trans Am head unit also has a graphic EQ that is actually useful for fine tuning.
