Hey guys I have posted on another post but I dropped my car off at the sound car shop! It would be custom-made 10 inch sub with custom enclosure in the back and all JL audio plus an amplifier by JL audio as well. And the main part I emphasize on sound deadening almost the entire car.
The rattling And noise really annoyed me in this car to the point where I was disappointed. So I hope this will work.

Yes! This is a complete subwoofer build to house the two JL10TW3 which are awesome! They removed the stock subwoofer enclosure “it’s crap anyway” The new enclosure work so well with the JL speakers they installed oh and a JL 1000vx i5 amplifier. I asked them to sound deadening the whole interior as well it’s a very setup for a nice ride now. No rattle and noise like it was before. Btw I do notice a slight weight difference when I’m driving the car.

JBL audio Premium audio sham! It doesn’t say any JBL on the speakers that I took out of the car most of them are nameless or saying Harman Kardon! Just look at how flimsy they look. I know that’s how they cut cost but its not cool.

I have Harman Kardon in my Mercedes.
And that sounds waaaaaaaay better then the sound system in the Supra (difference is day/night).

When turning up the volume, this is where it even gets worse for the Supra (rattling sounds)
But ok, the Mercedes costed me twice the price of my Supra :)

Actually the Harmon Kardon Speakers in the Supra are fairly decent...

With some proper equalization the highs and mids are fine....It's the low bass response along with rattling and vibration that I found to be the main problems...

I was able to make some significant improvements to the OE Subwoofer system and eliminate the vibrations and rattling...As a result bass response is noticeably lower and punchier and vibrational noise is gone...I can now listen to the sound system at 3/4 volume and the bass seriously kicks ass...

Here is a thread below I posted about a week ago outlining the details....project cost was roughly $30...

How to Improve OE Subwoofer Quality and Eliminate Vibrations

I think the factory subs will be disabled with their system. If it is a 7 channel amp, 5 will be for the 4”s and tweeters while I could see the other two each running two coils of the four in the subwoofer.

Yes, that's what they told me when I enquired about their system...I was hoping they would keep the OE subs and treat them as woofers and also use their standalone sub...But they told me they disable the 2 OE subs in their setup....
