Factory pioneer headunit.
Has anyone hooked up after market subwoofers and amp to the factory FRS head unit? If so how did it sound?

Great. Don't expect a crazy pimp my ride system, but about 100 watts going to a nice 8" works wonders. Easy as hell to setup too.

The FR-S HU doesn't have RCA outs... buuut
I hooked my JL 12W6V2 and JL 500/1 amp to the factory rear amp using this thread: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42239 Running a line converter does not compromise quality unless you're running an ungodly amount of power/show rig/care about cutting into your factory harness. PM me if you are still unsure as what to do |

Best thing about the sub is that you can lower the bass going to the factory speakers and let the sub handle it all. Once you're not trying to make bass through the speakers, they don't sound as bad anymore.
I also replaced the small dash speakers for some added clarity. Really happy considering a small investment of just a few hundred bucks. |

I used the 2013 sub output. I worked. If you have that unit you have to enable subwoofer mode with the secret menu. While you are there, set frs mode

That's what I was planning on doing. Just turning my bass down all the way on my settings and let my subs just takeover. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
