Bazooka Triangle Subs
Hey Im looking into getting two triangle Bazooka Subs to replace the bins behind the seats in my 85 glse and I was wondering if anyone has run those speakers b4 and if they sound any good.

cant say much for the subs, iv never been impressed by bazooka's in general. but everyone who puts subs in that place on an fb tend to re-locate them. based on that id say look elsewhere for a location. lots of people put them i nthe back aimed up towards the rear glass, thats what i did with some ground zero subs and they sounded great (especially for being 10+ years old)
i dont think the dynamix of a triangle would carry the same quality in sound, same concept as people who favor the round speakers to the oval ones for quality. again, i havent used them, and cant say for sure.

Avoid Bazooka in general. If you want to go for them soley because they are triangles, than my all means but they are the LAST you'd ever want for sound quality.
Let us know your budget and the type of sound you are after and we can come up with something. Two crappy subs would be a waste, I'd look to a single nice sub, which would make better use of the RX-7's cabin.

Here are my plans. I have removed the storage bins from behind the seats. My current sub (a Audio Centron box with a 12") its a monitor box and is currently pointed at the floor ran by a 200w optimus amp. So realy anything is an improvement. My plans where to use two of the triangle or square kickers mounted in the place of the bins but slightly under the top of the bin. Then Cover the bins with a pice of Plexiglass. Also mounting all of the electronics under the bin so that they are not in view. My budget is moderate and I plan on this being a fairly long project since we have fairly bad winters up here my car is in the garage 4-5 months outa the year.

I more space effeciant and monetarily affordable configuration that would offer more sound quality than boom would be going with a single 10" or single 12"
Consider mounting a single 10/12 in one bin and making a amp rack out of the other bin. Look for a Infinity Kappa with dual-voice coils, then from there get your amp of choice, I like the old school MTX's myself. Kicker squares are nice, dont get me wrong, but they are hard hitters.

A triagle sub? Way to pick the shape giving the least amount of surface area per dimensions...I have some bass tube from Rockford Fosgate that came in my car along with a 400watt amp, 200 bridged to the sub and 200 split between the 4 compenents...IMO a 10-12 Solo-Baric would be sufficient no matter what your looking for, go to Circuit Citys boom room and listen to one, the ONE sub sounds better than any other Duals they have, and kickers products are all phonomenal...

I mean Kappa Perfect, either way they are both pretty good for the price, just dont overload them.
