Mini Sub in Cayman

[J__D]

I have Cayman S, and looking to get a little sub installed. As I do not have the Bose system. I do not want crazy bass, just well rounded sound quality, maybe an 8" sub.

Any recommendations of subs for tight spaces, possibly, and preferably a passenger footwell install?

are you especially concerned about your car sinking?

i have heard the Mediterranean is a good place to go for bass.

In the recent rain we've been having this year.....who wouldn't be?

Hi. I've used Hertz in my vehichles for a couple of years now and have had two discrete systems done with an 8" sub. The quality of the stuff is really good. I got mine installed by In Car Systems in Shrewsbury and the work has been top notch, alternatively look on this website to see where your nearest stockest is http://www.fourcars.co.uk/index.php

Forgive that its from Halfords website. But, as an idea, would the "subwoofer" in this Focal package give good enough bass if build into an enclosure?

Take a look at underseat variants. This is what the Mini do for the HK package. I had it in a JCW I drove. E46 also incorporated this base setup on the rear parcel shelf setup with the HK.

Alpine do a couple of neat 'all-in-one' active subs that are small enough to fit under seats, behind trims etc etc.

I have seen those, but questioned the ability of those too....

The James Bond version?

I had one in my old GTi-6 that used to thump like a good-un. Not going to win any sound offs, but for the purpose of making my music sound good, at normal listening levels, it worked. Alpine HU, some half decent co-axial door speakers and an SWD something or other active sub/amp combo.

8" sub under the seat, plenty of punchy without being 'ghetto' but subtle bass.

Do they distort at all? (for those with experience?)

Nope. My E46 used to rattle but that's the stupid placement made by BMW. Mini was perfect

Have an underseat sub/s in my M6 and in my last car - a 635d and they sound fine. Think most things/variations will distort if you have the bass up to max and the volume turned to max with 'mr lover.lover' by shaggy......!!

If you can get underseat ones, definitely the way to go.
