I want to ad 1 or 2 subwoofers to my 93' bmw 525i get some bass enhancement. I like all types of music but not a lot of hip hop, so I don't care to rock the neighborhood w/ booming bass...I just want a good bass enhancement for most types of music. The reason I'm considering 2 vs. one... a stereo installer told me there was a lot of metal and material between the trunk and inside my car and I wouldn't probably get the bass I would like with only one 10" subwoofer. The 2 inexpensive options I have are buying 1 or 2 Visonic enclosed self amplified 200W 10" subwoofers. They are each in their own enclosed box with their own 200W amp and self powered. I was considering 2 in the trunk vs. 1 to make sure of a good prescence of bass. Or I have access to a good price on 1 or 2 200W bazooka type tube subwoofer with an 8" speaker.
Question1 ]
Most everyone goes to the trunk w/ a subwoofer. What about putting the subwoofer sitting in my back seat? I never carry anyone back there. I would assume 1 sub would be sufficient here would it not? If this is a viable option would you point and fire the speaker at the front seats or point and fire it into the backseat face down?
Question 2 }
Not being real familiar with the sound and perormance of the 2 subs mentioned above (enclosed vs. bazooka) , which would give me the best all round bass for most music types?
I feel the bazooka type tube sub is more for a thumping and boom which would favor hip-hop and rap...maybe not.
Thx again for your help. (Trying to avoid the expense of the time and $$ involved with trial & error)

putting it in your backseat will not only getto-fy that 5 series the way no bimmer should be but will also make a neat object to either find a creative way to secure, or to catch if/when you have an accident in it. I suppose if you went crazy with the seatbelts and some bungy cords it MIGHT stay there if you have a wreck, but the theives will take your window and what ever else is valuabe in the car probably long before any accident.
Is the gastank behind the back seat?
