infinity kappa and diamond audio are great speakers. you can put 8" subs in the front door holes of the 6th gen ive read.

What most of us have here for the 8" midsubs are the kicker rmb8 model. Infiniti reference or the kappa models are good. Boston acoustics.

I mate, I recommend this JBL package ( GT01202D 12" 1200W subwoofer (NEW 2005 model) # JBL GTO-75.2 - 260W RMS (500W max approx) amplifier ) http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/p...ts_id/1233.html It give the thump u need and the rumble as well. Don't forget a grill to cover it up. --------------------  san0.:GT-SS2:. |

i never liked the idea of the subs in the front... so i put them in the rear speaker locations...
i replaced my rear speakers with elemental designs EU-700s they're pretty good (but they are my first set of subs)... u could try some image dynamics ID8D2 V3 -------------------- |

JL Audio 6w0 are direct fit for your rear speaker locations and are 6.5" subs. Alternately, JL Audio 8w0 are a direct fit for the front stock location.

I just installed some Alpine Type-R components in a friends car, its an eclipse, but these things have some bass, and they are probably the cheapest route for some good name brand speakers. I would suggest going this route, and then if you still want more bass maybe buy a small 8 in sub or some kinda powered sub.

Pretty much the route I took. Polk db650's in the front doors (which surprised me how low they hit), and an 8" sub with a 150-watt amp. Nice balanced bass, imho.
