Well i'm going to purchase an S2000 in the near future, i was wondering is it is possible to add a boomin system to the S2000. It seems there is limited space to add the subwoofer and there are only two speakers. Is there anybody out there that has boomin system in their S2000 and if so, tell me your configuration(your set up). Where do you put the subs? Amps? etc.
THANKS!

Boom:






Speakers:
Diamond Audio Hex components
Rockford Fosgate Punch 10" pair
Kicker 8" pair

Power:
MTX 800 watt 5-channel amp

Multimedia:
Kenwood Excelon Head Unit
Neo MP3 player w/ Hard Drive (60 Gig)
Neo MP3 wired LCD remote

I highly recomend venting the back "shelf" behind the seats to allow for the air to move into the cabin. I turned my back shelf into a completely vented area. The bass will be quieter in your car with the top down, but it can still hit, just push the subs a little harder when the top is down.

You can say that again! I like your set up, so much did it cost to customize?

Everything was done in about a 6 month process. I did a few things at a time, much more affordable this way.

I spent about $3,000 in equipment and $2,000 in installation.

Did you lose the jack in the trunk or is it still there?
It's not there, but neither is the spare tire.

How is your sub box made (just a panel or fiberglass box, etc)?
The carpet was cut out of the well and the well was fiberglassed.

Lastly, how did you vent the trunk?
I cut out the inside of the back "shelf" where the convertible top sits when down. I then covered it with a thin black stretchy material much like what the stereo shop used on my first venting. The first venting was just about 4 inches by 14 inches in the center of the shelf.

Wes

What are the A-pillar speaker mounts you added, where did you get them (custom?), and what is in them (just a tweeter?)? They look really good.

I was wondering, do you have an exhaust put in. If so, does it overpower the sound of the system?
