I just picked up an OEM HK 10” sub enclosure from someone locally for $50. I was thinking that I could just swap it out from my Alpine 8” one to see if it sounds any better. The problem is, the plugs/wires are different.

The Alpine one is a 5 pin and the HK one is just a 2 pin. Is there any way to swap this in?

So did you just splice the connectors? Do you have any pictures of the wiring?

Yeah, I put it together but I don't have any photos because I already removed it because I made another update and I installed the net audio one, which is good.

The behind the seat one? I’ve been looking at that, how’s the bass?
