Was thinking about more bass in the truck. Current I have the kicker 10" but feel like Id like more. Not looking to spend $3K or nothing but what would you guys suggest between 10's or 12's? What brand and amp?

What does yours do to your HUD? The 10" Kicker already makes it jump all over the place.

Thanks for the input.
 
Do you know the specs for the kicker amp and subs? There may be an opportunity to upgrade a piece and get more output out of the current enclosure.

On the HUD, it looks like it's a one piece unit and it would seem like it's more likely the internal stabilization that is being affected than the mounting of the unit, so probably no great solution there. Does maximizing up or down position help at all?

The kicker that is in it is the one you can get from GM. So beyond that, I am unsure. I can tell you I flipped the switches when I installed it to get maximum bass out of it.

So if there is no way to more stabilize it, guess more bass would make it worse. Wonder if I could break it with too much lol.

Are there any actual specs on the amplifier? If not, what is it fused with?

Probably would need to pull the sub and see if it's printed with specs (or at least get measurements from it).

I'd assume the advertised 200 watts is likely "max" and you may have some room to upgrade the amplifier. Also, there may a more efficient sub available in the same size chassis.
