sorry i meant to type clear not clean..... and what im talking about is you have no idea what your talking about so why even say anything? Sony explodes are garbage, they speaker quality is junk and distorts very easily, they dont handle the RMS they are rated for and blow up very quickly, they just overall are garbage. lol, you cussing at me wont ever bother me but if thats how you wanna converse so be it, cuss away

OP obviously im a little jaded since i went for a massive sub

BUT as i said the Pioneer Shallow mount will work with very little effort, its a free air but it adds more bass than factory and leaves the trunk space

I installed this new Rockford Fosgate using factory bolt holes. I added lots of foam padding around the subwoofer to avoid rattling. It sounds very good inside, more then enough bass. Thank goodness I got a good dental plan bcuz it really knocks hard.
My door speakers have 6 1/2 Kicker speakers powered on a separate 4 channel amp.

BTW - if you ever need custom door speaker adapters, I recommend this place, is where I got mine:

For those of you that have replaced the OEM 10 with aftermarket 10,

are you using the factory levinson amp still?

What sub are you using?
How long have you had it?
How do you like it?

Thank you!
