Okay, I understand to get amazing sound in our TL's we have to replace everything....but I don't have enough cash to do it all at once. If I just want to add a couple of sub's in a box....could I power them with a new amp and still use the factory head unit? And, where is the factory amp located in a 2000 TL?? Also, what are the dimensions of the factory speakers? Thanks, in advance.

 

Man......you think stock amp has enough power to supply another sub????? No way......
You gonna at least buy another amp for sub....but my recommendation is Do not even start stereo mod, if you're not gonna spend lot of $$ on that...
Stock amp & speakers doesn't sounds good with only sub....

 

No,no,no,no....I had no intention in keeping the stock amp....and I would definitely put in a separate amp just for the subs.....I'm not a complete dumbass....but yeah, your suggestion is well noted, maybe I should just save up, get a bank loan, or borrow money from my parents and do it all at once......hmmmm.

Oh, for anyone who doesn't know: I found out that the stock speakers are 6.5-inch.

 

Good deal....
Post it later how it turns out.....
Why don't you do some exterior mods, first????

 

Actually the paper Bose speakers are 6" - exactly. I've replaced everything but the Bose h/u.

 

replaced everything but headunit! (big pain) which with all the amps ,sub, tweets, is so freakin loud anyway! only draw back is little things like eq adjustments. i always am adjusting bass/treble accoring to the type of music and the way some is digitally mastered. one minute i'm metal, the next i'm rap! adjustments have to made! LOL.. kman156

 

I wish i could.....but I'm still in university and I only work part time.....but I'm in an engineering co-op....so I should have a some cash when I graduate

 

I JUST got off the phone with Acura customer relations and the guy said the door speakers are 16 cm in diameter (~6.3 inches) but then he said they were 6.5-inch.....I don't know what's going on. But if you put in 6-inch and they fit, then that's cool. It seems like Acura has their info mixed up.

 

u can always contatc bose, they would know wut they put into the TL

 

yeah, i guess it wouldn't hurt.....
