i have an 2008 infiniti G37 coupe with the premium package (which includes the factory installed Bose sound system).

to be quite honest, i know NOTHING about car audios.

the system sounds very nice... it actually moves the rear view mirror down when i slap some songs.

at the same time, i would love to feel some more bass. i would love to set off some car alarms with my system. =)

what is your recommendation, considering available space in the G37, to achieve this?

what is your recommendation to boost bass with the least amount of money spent?

thanks for your input!
 
goto crutchfield.com there you can tell it what kind of car and it will tell you what fits also if you call them they can help you buy a killer system there staff is very helpful and knowledgable and when you by stereo / speakers etc they send instructions and harness and install kits free or $50.00 off on the more expensive install kits
 
gotta get some bump in ur trunk... get some good 10s or 12s if they can fit. but id go with the guy above me and check out that site. oh and a powerful amp
 
always listen before you buy and pick what sounds good to YOU

when it comes to car audio nine times out of ten you get what you pay for- and you need to look for CEA-compliant brands which means that the amps have been tested and produce or exceed the advertised RMS wattage with minimum distortion and the subs can handle their advertised RMS wattage also (distortion is the main cause of speaker damage over time)
here are the top CEA-compliant brands
Alpine (highly recommend)
Bazooka (don't like their subs)
Blaupunkt (don't like their subs)
Clarion
Eclipse
Infinity (highly recommend)
JBL
JL Audio (very good but over priced)
JVC
Kenwood (don't like their subs)
Kicker (the best in my opinion)
Lightning Audio (have not heard their subs)
MTX (highly recommend)
Pioneer
Polk Audio (highly recommend)
PPI
Rockford Fosgate (highly recommend)
Sony (don't like their subs)

if you are serious and want any chance to set off an alarm you need at least 400watts RMS with a nice ported box and at least two good 10s
this is what i would recommend for a good started system that will give you what you are looking for
