i can afford the sirius one right now.. but the kenwood would have to wait a month.. im still in high school so its hard to save money ahaha... the sirius would go in the trunk but the kenwood would go under the passenger seat.. any input please!

^ What he said.

Sirius makes subwoofers? WTF!?

I think my PC speakers has a larger Subwoofer than that.

Save up and get a real sub/box/amp. You will be a lot happier.

Don't know much about powered subs, but I saw on Alpine's website they have some new powered subs. I'd think those would be a lil better maybe?

Kenwood shouldn't be bad though but didn't know sirus made subs

The Sirius one probably won't make any more bump than your speakers can make now.

The Kenwood looks like it'll act more like a vibrator than actually producing low frequencies.

I suggest a Infinity Basslink.

if you wanna here the infinity basslink and theres another one but i fogot, go to circuit city, i think, and listen to it. they have the infinity for sure cuz my roommate was looking to get one, but heard it, and well you know what he got and loves it (its what you dont wanna hear) lol

but hope that helps. if its not circuit city then its best buy or one of those big electronics stores. good luck

get the basslink (on ebay for about $200 shipped)
or get a cheap 2 channel amp, a cheap 10" sub and box to fit ($200 approx)

both are crap, just buy a 10" sub and amp, better sound and not earth shattering sound, and cheap too.
