First time posting. I have a clarion 360 x4 amp installed in my 2010 Elantra Touring. The thing is that I cannot have a sub box in the car at all and in looking for a good midbass out of 6.5 speakers. Any help would be great!

Hello and welcome!

When it comes to speakers, your best bet is a local car audio shop with a demo board. If you're after bass without the box, an under seat unit like this one is another option.

Welcome to the club! There is only so much bass you can get out of 6.5" speakers and honestly haven't purchased any in some years so I'm probably not your best resource. As mentioned, if you're just looking for some extra bass, there are underseat options for subs. Otherwise, upgraded 6.5" speakers will certainly help out nicely! I like to do research and read reviews on Crutchfield. They have some great tech info there.

It might help to know what price range you are looking at though as there is quite a range. thumbsup.gif

So I got some clarions installed by a local shop and the car has crisp bass I was really surprised and also I didn't think about under the seats good advice.

Not sure how well those under seat speakers will fit as there are heating ducts under the seat too, at least in my Touring.

6.5s all the way around? i'd take a look at holes and maybe u could get adapter plates to fit 5x7s or 6x8s... also how deep they go. if you dont mind modifying car panels that is ... m sure u know speakers can range in wattage from 20rms - 300 peak and magnets can go from basic 10oz to like 30something...

Oh no, I'm so sorry... the correct answer is The Moops.

The packaging clearly stated '100'. I'm short ONE luft balloon.
