amplify them instead of relying on head unit power.
skip rear speakers entirely in that small topless car.
use an RE SE8 8" sub and feed it about 600wRMS in a vented enclosure.
you'll have a very nice system as a result.

I have to agree with KIki here, Thats basically the same set up I would sugest. I would try for a 10 if you have the room, but if not a well made 8 would do the trick.

Since when did RE make an SE8?

sorry for being a little off topic..

but SE8"? the SE series only comes in 10, 12 and 15". the RE series is the one that comes in 8-12" :P

also, how would you hear a sub if the top is down? i've never been in a converatble with a system other then aftermarket deck and front speakers...
