i bought a sub a lonng time ago and i finally decided to put it in my car. i'm planning to get it done next weekend. is there a way where i can see how the sub sounds before that, like hooking it up to computer or home stereo??

 

nope.

if its any kind of powerful sub you dont have anything in your house that will power it properly.

you can throw the sub in a box and run an amp right off the battery if you are worried about running wires, and run signal cables from inside your car out to the amp.

 

or take it to a buddy and hook it up to his amp lol

 

^^
that would be the much easier solution.

otherwise, you're gonna need your own amp and wires to test it. What tibby01 said.

What sub is it?

 

The acoustics of the Tiburon are different from your buddy's car. Unless he has a tiburon. Speakers sound differently depending on how you set them in your trunk, up, down, backwards... You'd really need to hook them up in your car, otherwise you're just playing with the speaker. But there's nothing wrong with that.

 

i do have an amp, and the subs are 2 12" visonik

 

if you just want to see that it will still work you can take like a double a battery and touch each end to the poss. and neg with some wires. it will just be a lil stitick
