Just installed a sub box.... - 5/30/2007 10:55:12 PM    Gman Posts: 217 Joined: 8/16/2006 Status: offline I just installed two subs in my 03' Silverado. The added base really makes the Bose system come alive. I found the sub box at subthump.com and installed two Kicker 10" CVR's and a Kicker ZX400.1 amp. Man this thing can thump but I'm careful not to piss anybody off. The box is pretty cool and fits perfectly under the rear seat. I will try and post a few pics if this site will let me.

RE: Just installed a sub box.... - 5/31/2007 1:04:32 PM    Gman Posts: 217 Joined: 8/16/2006 Status: offline sm3earl I bought the sub box on line http://www.subthump.com and Steve the owner is a good guy to deal with. The box is one piece and you just raise the rear seat and slid it in. The box holds two 10" subs and has a cool place to mount the amp in the center. Very clean setup. The best thing about it is when the seat is in the down position you don't really notice it's there. They make boxes for all Chevy trucks Reg., Ext.and Crew Cabs even Ford, Dodge, Nissan and Honda . The fit and finish is perfect and one cool thing they can do is put SILVERADO on the front and it makes the box look like OE. I would post more pics but I keep getting "File Too Large". _____________________________ Gman Still "GETTIN-ER-DONE" in a Chevy Truck (in reply to sm3earl) Post #: 4

The only reason why i ask is because it looks like the speaker is sealed and there is no room for the air to move. Another question, you had to upgrade the factory radio right? Did you get an adapter from somewhere so that there isnt a big hole in place of the stock radio? Can you post some pics please? _____________________________ -Shawn 2000 Chevy Silverado ext. cab 5.3L (in reply to Gman) Post #: 5

Circuit City did the install of the wiring and did a nice clean job. I thought they would use an adaper behind the head unit to run the RCA's and amp turn on lead but he did everything from the console where the stock amp is located. The downfiring speakers work great and the box is made with enough room under it to allow the speakers to thump just fine. I looked for several months but couldn't find a better made box and the sound you get out of it is awesome. It's fun to crank it up at the red lights and watch people trying to figure out where the base is coming from. They don't expect an old gezzer like me busting out Zeppelin. I would post more pics but this site gives me hell.  _____________________________ Gman Still "GETTIN-ER-DONE" in a Chevy Truck (in reply to ZX1100F1) Post #: 7

We got a new coach (Wade Phillips) an exciting young quarterback (Tony Romo) and we still have TO. In 2009 Jerry’s new palace will be completed making it the world’s finest retractable roof football stadium which will host the 2012 Super Bowl. Man, it doesn’t get any better then that. That cap is about three years old it might be time to upgrade this year. _____________________________ Gman Still "GETTIN-ER-DONE" in a Chevy Truck (in reply to Gman) Post #: 8
