Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Audio rear deck subwoofer

Josh, sorry I've been slacking on the PM's. I only get a couple chances to check my computer durring the day for purposes other than work when I'm not out in the field. I guess since this is now a post I'll just post here as well. The kicker speakers you posted in the PM are actually mid-bass drivers, not subwoofers. Any subwoofer will work in a rear deck free-air invironment but when a sub is mounted free air it only requires about 1/4 the power it would typically require if it were in an enclosure.. so you will have to be careful when setting the gain on your amp.
Certain subs are better than others... I'll let the techinical gurus chime in here to let you the specifics of what you should look for.
as for the last question, you have 3 sets of RCA pre-outs on your headunit CDA 9811 correct?. front/rear and sub.. your 4 channel amp would hook up to your front/rear outputs while your sub amplifier would hook up to the sub pre-out.. so you would just need 3 sets of RCA cables... no weak signal worries.
