JP’s new D4S amp look like monsters. Great build quality, exceed rated, and JP couldn’t be a better advocate for the car audio world. I’m an old school SQ competitor as well as a basshead so I went with hybrid audio L8SE’s, L3SE, L1proR2 tweets, all running on Mosconi amplification and DSP. I run 2 different sub stages depending on the time of year(we travel for sports) so a single 13W7 sealed rides during volleyball season the offseason I run 2 FI Q 15’s in an aeroported enclosure. Here’s where the wheels fall off for the haters, the subs are powered by dual Skar RP2000’s. At least until I can find something in the 3-3500watt range that fit under the rear captains chairs recessed in the beauty panel. Not willing to go Brazilian. I’ve had no problems with the Skar gear probably because of the dedicated 300amp Mechman and dual DH6 yellow tops. 1EC05F89-A729-439C-837C-97747B50D64E.jpeg52949CBE-1657-414F-B3E9-3111420F415A.jpeg7DFA3D14-27FD-46A2-ADA3-E92C6E085AB2.jpeg9DFDD642-A485-42F1-B3AA-ADD188B9FB92.jpeg1EC05F89-A729-439C-837C-97747B50D64E.jpeg7DFA3D14-27FD-46A2-ADA3-E92C6E085AB2.jpeg52949CBE-1657-414F-B3E9-3111420F415A.jpeg5A854425-2979-4E91-8F6B-91C47B6289D0.jpeg

Can I keep my speakers but just upgrade subwoofer in the console??
Yea I thought to do the same thing so when I had the baby I could cut the 15 off and just play a single 6.5 or 8” under the console but my audio guy said I wouldn’t be satisfied with it at all for what it would cost to do it right I’m use to atleast enough bass to tickle your ear drums and nose lol it’s nice to have a bass knob now for when I got the wife and kid in there

Yes you can. I believe its a 6.5" so there is not much upgrading you can do.
There are a number of quality 6.5" subs that require small enclosures also capable of handling 500-1000+ watts. We're lucky to have an OEM spot for a sub in the front/center of our vehicles. In the SQ competition world up front bass is a huge deal. It helps to create an accurate sound stage without the bass coming from behind you. I see guys use half of the passenger footwell or rebuild the underside of the dash to achieve these results.
Good quality 6.5" subs in 2022 are not what they used to be. Ground Zero GZHW 16SPL I've not run these 6.5"ers but a very good friend is running 4 of the 8" version. The 6.5" claims 30mm of Xmax?? That's more travel than 90% of the subs on the market. His 4 - 8's on 4K watts almost keep up with my 15's. However there is still no replacement for displacement. Oh yea, taking out the entire center console is a PITA.
