Monsoon Subwoofer upgrade
 
I got the Monsoon 7 speaker upgrade it has a subwoofer I am guessing in the back. I want to upgrade to a 12? or a 15? subwoofer. Can I replace the Stock subwoofer by unplugging it and plugging in a 12 or a 15? does anyone know how much output the stock 6 Disk CD player has? I am pretty much clueless on how to do this so any information would help!!!
:confused:

If you want to go with a different sub you are going to have to replace the factory sub amp. This amp is separate from the head unit and is back by the sub I believe. I would go with a 10" or pair of them before I would go with a 12" let alone a 15". Are you looking for a huge jump in the low end or just a little improvement? You will get far better sound quality with a pair of 10"s. If you just looking to improve it without making it sound like it should be running on 22s and lowered, go with a pair of 8"s or a 10" in the rear gate. Just my two cents

You will have to pull the whole DS rear panel off to get to it. You can download a zip file with pics of BParker's sub install to give you some ideas. Just to warn you though, the file is 16 or 17 meg.

Now I am going to take a look and see if how hard this is going to be and how big I can put in there without having to CUT :)

Did anyone ever find out what the bigest size sub I can fit back there is. I dont want to cut up the case.

You should check this thread out about a new sub enclosure made by JL audio. It fits in the space that the monsoon sub and amp took up in the rear panel. You would have to find a place for a new amp, but very clean install.
