For You Bass Freaks // JL Audio 12" W6 // Install Pics

[bigbrian]

Let me preface this by saying I have never been a "bass freak" but I do enjoy EDM music (electronic/house) and I wanted a little more "oooomphhh" to the sound in my car.

I didn't want the enclosure to be gaudy or blingy nor did I want it to look like I threw a subwoofer box in the back of my trunk.

So I worked with the local stereo shop to build a classy enclosure that matches the OEM look of the trunk with just a tad bit of "custom-ness". I think they did a really good job on it and wanted to share the pics.

Btw... I have catless downpipes and Eisenmann midpipes being installed today (Eisenmann Race mufflers already in place) so I will definitely be "that guy" with the annoying loud car from every angle.

Very nice touch. Did you have to do any trunk work to get the sound to transfer through. BMW trunks are sealed extremely tight for road noise. I am picking up my M6 GC on Monday. I plan on transferring my current set up. Thanks for sharing.

I didn't do anything to modify the trunk. I know Hunter on here ported the box through the center of the two seats which sounds like a pretty good idea. My box is sealed and you can definitely feel the low end bass. I have a knob right to my drivers seat which lowers/raises the bass and more often than not the bass is so strong that it sounds better turned down a bit.

It was money well spent because the stock system just doesn't have much low end at all. I listen to all types of music and it sounds amazing now.
