    Had to mock it up to make sure everything fit together before cutting the sides. Big problem is that I've got 2 subs and they both wouldn't fit under the console. Got to figure out where to put the other one.

    Anyone got any ideas? I'm thinking of building new structure and putting it behind the drivers seat.

    Ron - Nice. Wish you lived closer. You could help me add a sub to my 2007 Outback. How does it sound? Is the additional base noticeable? Could you power the speaker from the existing amp or was it absolutely necessary to install a second amp just for the sub? - Deerfield

    Both amps were already with the boat when I bought it. They were just sitting on the floor under the passenger seat, along with the sub.

    Sub sounds tons better because it's in the open now.

    I guess you might be able to connect the sub to the primary amp but I doubt that it would sound any good. The primary amp has "cutoff frequency" controls. What that means is that the frequencies that feed the sub would be cut out of the outputs that the sub would be connected to. Therefore, unfortunately, a secondary "sub amp" is required.

    I think there should be some "hybrid" amps available, which would have outputs for the primary speakers and the sub.

    If you only want to run one amp, you could do it with a 5 channel like the Kicker zx700.5. You could your six cabin speakers with channels 1-4, and the sub with the 5th channel. Be sure to get a dual voice coil sub. And yes, it will definitely be noticeable.
