Default TA side speakers
Hi, Im just wondering what the side spears in a Trans Am are for. The ones that are near the back seats. They were out of my car when I got it but right now it has no bass at all.

I was wondering if this is the reason.

The speakers directly next to the rear seats are the mid-woofer / sub-woofer.
If they are missing, that is why you are missing bass.
Kee Audio has some nice replacements (Bazooka & CDT).
He also has some complete speaker upgrade packges as well.


The speakers behind the rear seats (in the hatch area) are rear-fill.

More like he has nice replacements (CDT) and cheap replacements (Bazooka). Bazooka does not - and has NEVER - made a good speaker.

From what I've seen, they are still better than stock. So compared to stock or missing speakers, they are still a "nice" replacement.

We sell an audiopipe 6" sub that fits in and sounds nice, especially if you add an amp.

Who is "we". If you aren't a sponsor and are soliciting sales, you may get banned. This is your warning.

By "we" I was referring to the shop I work at, just for general knowledge that we have sold that item in this application and it sounded nicely.

That's fine. Its just that we've had some people in the past pulling "back-door" deals which annoys sponsors.
