Some advice to help my son...and myself!
Tldr: 16yo son needs audio in his CRV. Had sub and amp in my truck. Sounded ok. Let him borrow my sub and amp. I am blown away by how it sounds in his car. Let him keep and buy something else for my truck?
I know next to nothing in this lane. Been researching a little. I have an extended cab Silverado 2500. Years ago, a buddy had a type R in a ported box with a S-a60m amp. Traded him something for it. Sat it right on the seat, not a great idea for space and sound, but toolbox under seat. It worked and I've been happy.
My son got a CRV for his first car. Hes been wondering about sound. Told him what would help. We replaced all speakers. He loves it. Now wants bass. He wasnt sure the difference in sound would be worth the money. I told him hes underestimating how good it could sound. Took my sub out and installed in his CRV. I knew hed be surprised, but man was I blown away myself. Sounds incredible in his car. Obviously the space is the reason. That said, we had plans to let him test, then buy something for his car. I feel this sub and amp are going to waste in my truck. So I'm thinking of letting him keep it and buying something else for my truck.
Like i said, I was happy with it....until I heard it installed in his car. The difference is insane. Its obvious that a small truck cab wouldnt have the same sound as an open crv, but holy fuck, I was not expecting that large of a difference. The whole time I've thought it should probably sound better. Yea, its miles better.
Any thoughts on what i could look into for replacements in a extended cab?
