"What kind of amp did you end up using? Was there an issue with the 2ohm vs 4 ohms?

Does anyone know what size the sub (subs?) are in the coupe?" - Justinius7 8/2/05

The amp i got was only a 100 Watt amp and it pushed the BOSE 6" sub pretty well. Im hitting pretty hard now since i added that amp. The original amp which is placed on the right hand rear passenger seats side wall was a really low amp. There was no issue with the 2ohm vs 4ohms i used a 8 gauge power wire to power the amp. Any other questions just ask.

c230kracer,

Thanks... If you don't mind me asking, what brand amp did you use, did it fit in the same place as the stock amp? The 8 guage wire, did you run this from the fuse box spare outlet or back from the battery?

I've also read much about fiber optic amp inputs, is this the case, or did you use the hi-level from the stock amp output?

the AMP is made by DHT and i didn't use fiber optic cables because i got a new headunit and i just wired the power to the battery to be more safe with the powers current. and the amp fit right on top of the sub perfectly so it still looks clean and all in the trunk. its great!
