Well, son of a biscuit. I just found out last night that the rear bench seats in the Jeep flip up for the backs to lay down. Some people put amps in the space underneath them. Before I came in from lunch, I decided to take a look to get a feel for how much room I have to work with, and damned if there isn't already a factory Infinity Gold amp under there. I didn't think it had the premium sound package since only the driver's door had the badge, and I thought that was from the donor Jeep the door come from.

Mine didn't have that, but that's awesome yours does. I wound up spending a grand on an amp and putting it under the passenger seat. And then I took the passenger seat out to build a bookshelf and laptop desk over the amp. laugh out loud

Talk about a score though. That really cuts down on the net amount you spend to get the jeep the way you want it.

It may be by the time I'm done with it. I contacted the VA militia a year ago to sign up, and I never heard a response. That's pretty sad considering signing up for the VA militia is mandatory for all men according to the VA constitution.

I made the same discovery in mine when I replaced my speakers.

Well, now that I'm looking into it, it doesn't seem like the amp is any more powerful than my head unit itself Scratchchin

Yeah, but if it's driving the rear speaker pair or just the subwoofer, then the head unit's amp isn't straining to drive the front speaker pair.

Okay, evidently it's a 120W four channel amp (driving six speakers, the dash tweeters--these actually sound pretty decent--and the four door speakers). There's plenty of room for my 80W 2 channel amp under there too, so once I hook that up and run the low frequencies to the 6x9s (just ordered the boxes earlier) it should even things out until I'm ready to spend more than $20 to get better sound laugh out loud
I'm thinking of pairing something like this [amazon.com] with an adequately-powered amp.

Dude chewspam you should run a wilderness survival school in your yard. All the ones I can find around here are run by rednecks or white militia types where they just want to get you out in the woods and indoctrinate you.

What I want is a week of camping, living off the land, learning to survive. Build a fire with no matches, etc. Surprisingly hard to find! You can have the idea for a mere $40k & 15% of the business.
