Questions
What box do I need?
Kenwood recommends about 1.25 cu ft sealed or 1.5 cu ft ported. Ask us and we'll recommend a box that fits your vehicle.
What amplifier do I need?
A mono amplifier that delivers about 500 watts RMS at 4 ohms. The eXcelon X503-1 and Kenwood KAC-M5001 are good matches.
Do you install subwoofers?
Yes, at our Markham shop. We run the power wire, fuse it at the battery and tune the amplifier so it sounds clean.
