Heres my install.Ive gone for a retro discreet look.Up front i made some pods to replace the air vents to house the 5 inch In Phase 160Watt mids with built in tweeters,and w kenwood head unit with USB port. then at the back ive got two 8 inch In Phase 500watt Subwoofers.All powered by a 1200Watt In Phase Amplifier in the boot.Its definately not the most powerful one on this list,but it packs a punch,seeing as the subs are just inches from your backside

Got a new system in the works, More dynamat extreme sound mat, and upgrading the amps, I had kicker and jbl amps before but now they are gonna be matching amps from mb quart
Mb quart 1500.1D, and mb quart 2ch 240wrms amp for tops/mids, mb quart 6.5 comps, no rear speakers!
And I'm gonna keep the tc sound 10inch d4 sub for now until I find something else, I'm really thinking about going with a mb quart sub but I'm still reading up on them, the amp I have will power the sub at 1000wrms, the sub is rated at 750rms, this amount of power will be more then enuff for the mini
My old amps will get moved into my daily driver with a dd audio 12 I have
I hope to start my build log in a few weeks and will post lots of photo's
But I have a few other things to get done on the car before I can start with the system

What about over 145dB from a single sub? Hertz SX-300D (12", 800Wrms, 3200Wpeak) or it's little brother Hertz HX-300D (12", 600Wrms, 1200Wpeak)

just been having a look at back seat install's, just that ive got a 12" kicker solo-baric that i want to make a new box for, to give me a bit of boot space.

Digler i hope you have pods around those rear speakers if that subs going in the boot.
Otherwise they will sound pants and die quite quickly ...

i know what you mean, that the sub will push the 6x9's from behind, the sub will be mounted just under the shelf but still in the box, it doesn't seem to be affecting them too much. but i know they will sound better in box's.

Think about how speakers work... It will kill them in time. Might be a year or it might be a week,But they will die. Damage is being done running them like this...
But then again the rear is a silly place for any full range speakers full stop! :/
