I bought the system a few months back. The system integrates well into the stock system. The new front door speakers deliver a very crisp sound. The 10'' woofer produces enough bass to really enhance the music, without being overbearing. I also like the fact you can't really see that you've upgrade the system without listening to it (obviously if you look hard enough you can see the enclosure under the sit, but it's not easily seen) I enjoy the system.

Does the base hit hard if you crank it up and stay crisp? WHat kind of music are you listening to when you consider the speakers to stay crisp?

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Also, how was the install?

I only see 2 speakers, subwoofer & panel, and some wiring.

What about those dinky speakers in the back, don't those rate an upgrade ? Anyone have pics of this system installed (especially the woofer & panel) ?

I bought the unit from Predator Motorsports and the dealership installed it for me. They charged me for two hours of labor but I don't think it took that long.

At first I was disappointed with the bass the system produced. Even if I turned up the volume the bass didn't hit harder and I couldn't take the midrange and higher part of the music coming out of the door panel. Very clear and crisp but just too loud. After about a day it dawned on me to just adjust the equalizer so I could turn the volume up without killing my hearing. I turned the bass all the way up and the other two, midrange and treble, down some. On the R&B and Rap music that is design to have a hard bass line the bass is good. It hits as good as a 10'' woofer can hit but without the distortion. You won't win any contests with the bass the system will produce but it is enough bass to really enjoy the music with a good bass line. My classical music and Jazz also sound great.
The system is a definite upgrade to the stock system. You can easily hear the difference.

I purchased this system on eBay and after installing it, I noticed that it really wasn't that much better than the stock system. I've always upgraded the sound system in every vehicle that I've owned...So with that being said, I'm not easliy impressed with just a slight upgrade over stock. Honestly, I kind of figured that I wouldn't be satisfied with this system but for the price that I paid ($249), the subwoofer enclosure alone was worth that much. I already had a plan B in place before the install anyway. I'm actually only using the sub enclosure alone...I removed the tiny amp and the Rockford P1 sub from the enclosure...I resealed the enclosure and added a Rockford P3 shollow mount sub temporarily until I get the Alpine shallow mount sub. I'm also using Alpine Type-R speakers in all 4 doors for mids and highs. The amp that I'm using is the new Alpine PDX-5 that runs the whole system...it's a very clean 5 channel amp...75watts RMS to each door speaker and 300watts RMS to the subwoofer. I have to say that I'm really impressed with the way my sound system turned out because the SUT doesn't have much of an option when it comes to adding a decent sounding subwoofer unless you do a complete custom job which will cost a lot of money. Anyway, I would highly recommend my setup to anyone with an H2 SUT.

Very nice system and from a great company too.
The only thing is that want to up grade the head
unit first and then work on sub bass systems next.

Is this recommended for the new 2008 H2 with the bose system?

Yea, I was waiting for an answer also... Sure would like to know if the wireing will work.. I will just sit back eat some popcorn and wait...

[jdrew]

Will this work for SUT's too?

[splne1]

If you want bass you have to make sacrifices???? Rear seat and spare for some subs??? I think I made a good choice

[mattca71]

Jason,

I just bought one from Somo but I am having issues with the Sub, its way to loud and wont adjsut with the VOl. It is always thumping even with the Vol down low. Can you email me at mattca@hotmail.com to discuss?

Anyoen else have this issue? I have a 2004 H2


Thanks

Sounds like it's somehow connected wrong. Mine goes up and down with the speakers and if I want more or less of it I just adjust the Bass slider in the EQ settings. A couple of clicks either way makes a noticeable difference in the subs volume. Anything below the midline on the Bass slider basically takes the sub out.

Since the wiring is pre-done with a pigtail, it's possible that the wires were put together wrong at Rockford. I'd check the wire colors and give Rockford Fosgate a call for a schematic to check it against. I had to call them about some missing parts and received great service from the guy who answered the phone.

[h2sutithaca]

Looking to put this in my 2006 SUT. From what I am reading above I am getting mixed feelings. Any other input? Sounds like the bass is decent. Has anyone else had any issues with adjusting the bass, in essence turing it off. I don't need to have the bass thumping at all time.

Are there any other options out there to keep the subs beneath the seats. I know I could get a custom box and subs but that may add up quickly...

Any help would be appreciated.

[The_Yeti]

Anyone know how I would get this pigtailed on a 2003? I've read the 03 has a slightly different adapter on back of the stereo.
