Anyone using a Bazooka tube or otherwise powered subwoofer?
I am looking for just a little more bass from my audio system. I have replaced the headunit and the four speakers and I am now considering one of those Bazooka tubes. Has anyone installed any of these and can share the results?
Also where did you mount it? I have a two door soft top that gets wet alot in the summer.

Is that mounted to a piece of plywood or something? Maybe so you can remove it if necessary? Since I posted, I did a search and found a couple of good posts. I inquired about the Bazooka tube because I can get the 8100 new for $50 off another forum. Another member here mounted a Kenwood under his driver's seat.

I have an 8" bazooka tube in my Tundra. I like it much more than the build a box, buy a sub, install an amp solution. It's very compact and definitely adds some thump to the ride. I have mine mounted using a nylon strap tie down with a plastic buckle so that it can be removed quickly. The power input is on a two pin molex connector. The audio and power control inputs are on a second molex connector. Very easy to disconnect and throw in the bed when I need to carry extra passengers more than when I need to have extra bass. I'd post pictures, but I don't think they'd be much use in a Jeep installation.

But, I went with the Kenwood KSC-SW1 in the JK as it will fit under the drivers seat and is completely out of sight of passers by. I also like the fact that the amp is built in. It's not as strong as the Bazooka, or the Basslink but the sound is fine for me and I like the fact that it is hidden.
If you have a hardtop a Bazooka or a Basslink would be an excellent choice.

8" Bazooka Tube
I've got an 8 inch powered Bazooka tube, and it sounds awesome. I've got a four door and it's sitting behind my back row of seats. You can put a tarp over it if it has the potential of getting wet. I took some automotive carpet and cut a piece big enough to cover my back cargo area so nothing gets wet.....

Wow, some great info so far. I would love to see some pics of the underseat install. Maybe I could get one for each of the driver and front passenger seats to be the ultimate mall crawler. Haha , my wife hates this site.

It doesn't quite fit under the passenger seat as there is some kind of wiring harness with a bunch of plastic plugs and receptacles under there that gets in the way. There is less wiring on the drivers side. I'll see if I can get some pics tomorrow.
