changing only sub ?
I have 03 GS300 and my car is in service so I have loaner ES300.
I put the CD and wow....way better base than GS...
how come? GS is more expensive car and ES has better sound?
I mean much more bass and mid...high seems same...since both are stock...not ML..
So I want to increase my bass just little more...not bum~bum~
I saw someone here said chaning sub to better one helps..
then which one? and how much usally cost?

Looking to do the same thing...All I want to do is change the sub and use the stock amp...Is it possiable for me to just buy a sub and plug it in to the existing plug...I was told by a service personal that the sub is limited to the bass due to the factory radio and if I changed it I would have the same problem.Any truth to that?? Thats why I bet the ES sounds more bass.

bah, the stock amp wont power anything but the stock sub, you will need to run a whole new power line, amp, and sub for the thing to work. in my gs4 i took the stock speaker wires, converted them to RCA and plugged those into my amp. Then i took the power cables and ran them directly to the battery. You will also require one of these little power thingymabobs, i have NO clue what they do or are, but youre gonna need one as i did or else it will not work. Had a professional friend install mine for free though. He said itd be expensive to take it out to a shop and have them do it.
Also, the free-air setups are NOT that wonderful. I like my sealed and badpass boxes, tight and sharp with good lows.
12'' Pioneer TS-W3041C Pro Series 12-inch 4 ohms
Crunch Power Zone P2125 Amp
Q-Logic QB-112.2 Bandpass Box
This setup is super good and super light on your wallet, total setup cost me less than 300. www.sounddomain.com is your hero.
