Thread: Bass Tubes....

  1. #1

    I just put a stereo in my boat and am not pleased at all due to the lack of bass. I would like to install a few subs but don't have very muck room in the boat, and don't want to sacrifice storage for ice chests and other stuff.
    This is making me really look at bass tubes. I have never installed one in any of my trucks or boats; So I know very little about them. Ive heard a couple and thought they sound like crap. I just would like something equal or close to a nice 12" sub.
    Has anyone installed a bass tubes and been pleased with them. Can any of you recommend a good bass tube?
    :hammer2:

    They sound crappy.
    Take some pics of the interior....One good 12 with some power will be all you need for clean bass.

    I just went over to Marks Auto Sound in Irwindale. He does all the installs for Hallett Boats.
    Mark Came up with a great way to install a Alpine 12" with a Alpine Bass amp. I will have to sacrifice a little room but oh well. He gave me a great deal on all the equipment. I will install it tonight after work. Ill be sure to post pics when its completed.

    I use an alpine 5-channel amp and have been quite satisfied. I run my components with 4 channels and the 5th to drive the sub. It has worked well for me. I believe F450 is the model.

    My buddy has 3 10" Alpines in his truck. They sound great! Better than the JLs he replaced them with. If Im not happy I will take it back. Mark will make sure Im happy with what ever product he sells me, as he would for any customer.
