Aftermarket Sub w/ stock JBL?
After upgrading the headunits on several of my previous vehicles, I don't mind the quality of the JBL system with exception of the sub. It needs help - especially when driving with the windows down.
Has anyone upgraded the sub w/o replacing the stock radio? My biggest concern at the moment is whether I can reuse the stock sub speaker wiring to feed an amp, or get it from the back of the headunit, or worse, purchase a filter to clean up any processed sound such as JL Audio's Cleansweep. Thanks, Mark 08 CM LTD |

you can run after market subs an and amp from the stock head unit.
you might be able to use the stock wiring, but for best sound, i would replace that as well.

Yes you can do it. I think many on this forum have done it. I'm in the process of doing this right now to my DC. You just need a speaker/line level to RCA converter which you tap into the left/rear, right/rear speaker wires. Hey Itchy, what kind of sub/amp are you gonna install.

You would need to decide on which subs to use, but these enclosures look pretty slick. SUBWOOFER BOXES - TOYOTA at Sound Off Audio

Tech12volt your box looks great! I'm considering just 1 sub though which will be more than enough. Do you make single sub boxes? The sub I'm considering is JL's TW5, however it's a 13" sub requiring 0.80 cubic feet of volume and 2.5" mounting depth. Can you accommodate?
Has anyone done a write on removing stock JBL sub? Any suggestions? Any body try the new JL Shallow subs? I'm a huge fan of JL Audio and Boston subs. JL Audio Products: Subwoofers / 13TW5 Thanks, |
