Found a really slick subwoofer, Looks like it was designed for us Options

Had been contemplating a stereo upgrade. Had read all the threads. Wanted something that would require minimal disturbance from stock and be unobtrusive

Had already committed to a period correct Blau Frankfurt with the digital conversion. I knew that the Infinity Kappas were a good solution in the original speaker housings so went with those. In looking for a small powered sub I found the Pioneer TS WX010A. Chose it because it is about the smallest one out there and is a small 50 watt amp that requires no heavy wiring

Figured it’s small size would provide a variety of mounting options without have to cut up any interior stuff. What I did not know was how well it would fit. After taking out the foam filler block, I found that This thing fits in the recess in the passenger footwell like it was designed to be there. See pix below



I held it into place using the double face tape provided with the sub. This tape also nicely isolates the speaker so it does not rattle against the firewall/floor structure. Once the foam block is trimmed and put back into place the carpet covers it all and it essentially is undetectable.

The thing has great adjustability in gain and frequency. Both are turned way down and provides all the bass you could ever want in our small cabin. Paired with the Kappas it sounds great

Overall a very sanitary installation and a pleasing ( to me anyway) solution.

Yea. My digital amp installed into the Blaupunkt had regular wire outputs for “ rear” speakers. Ran them through an RCA converter then into the sub. From memory I believe you can run the wires directly to the sub without an RCA converter. There is actually a switch on the sub that sets it up for RCA input or wire inputs

Also from memory I think that you can “T” the speaker wires to feed the sub. I think you can see the manual with wire diagrams showing various hook up options on the Pioneer web site.

There's no example shown in the Pioneer manual for how to hook this sub up to a stereo that has just 2 speaker outputs (like my hidden under dash blue tooth receiver/amp). I'll guess I'll splice off of one of speaker outputs to feed the sub its signal.

This is the bluetooth receiver/amp unit I'm using.
