tkday Member 6 Member For: 18y 6m Posted 25/02/08 12:13 AM Share Posted 25/02/08 12:13 AM Hi Guys,I saw on a forums a while back about the sub in the premium sound pops when you turn it up too loud. Someone had a margine container (large round one) and did some mods with it to fix the sub popping. Does anyone know where/how to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After market subs start at $50 and although there not great they still would be better than the factory sub. $200 will get you a pretty decent replacement and much better bass and kick. Just my 2c.Oh and Edited 25/02/08 12:23 AM by XRTPSI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2c.Oh and To be honest, I don't mind the sound system, the sub adds enough bass for me, I've never been one for the loud bass blasting out. When I turn it up loudish it pops and is not distorting yet. Sometimes I don't even need to have it that loud. I might replace the fronts and sub when the kids get older. But for now I would just like to solve the pop.By the way, thanks for the welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
