I own a 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder.I recently changed the stock system to the Infinity Reference 6020CS component speaker with the Reference 475a amp and a nice Kenwood head unit.The new speakers sounded good, but lacked clarity below 80 Hz and trying to push the low end through them distorted the sound.I knew I needed a subwoofer, but since the Spyder has only two seats and almost no storage space, I had great difficulty finding one.

I bought this speaker because it was 8" and would match my main speaker since they are both Reference series.I had to build my own sealed enclosure due to the limited space available.I powered it with 150W from the 475a amp. Once connected the sub changed how my entire system worked and sounded.

I set the crossovers to 80 Hz and now the main speakers sing.I can't distort the system even when the volume is loud enough to hurt my ears.The sub adds a tight, punchy low end.I've heard bass lines that I never heard before in songs that I've listened to for years.

I expected that some of the sub-harmonic frequencies would not be handled as well since it is a small speaker.Typically 12" subs are used for booming bass.I was wrong.This sub handled them more than adequately.

If you are trying to rattle your windows, this speaker may do the job, but you should probably go with a larger one.If you want an accurate sonic reproduction with a fast response and clear, crisp bass, this is your speaker.My car now sounds better than most home systems.
