Which Pioneer? I bought one a few years ago that I had to import from either Europe or Japan since it was not sold here. I didn't expect much with it, since it only has dual 4" drivers. It does OK but "flubs" a lot of the bass notes. I later added a Focal bombA 8" powered sub and it performs way better, but I kept the Pioneer only for use when I needed to use the rear for hauling. These new subs might be worth a look, and to me the JBL would probably be the better choice of the bunch. For years, I had a 6½" powered Bazooka beneath the table in my '97 CR-V and while it wasn't the most powerful or deepest, it did fill out the bottom end nicely. Beneath the floor like that, it did not lose much output.

How much of an audiophile system are you looking to install??? ... I installed the Cerwin-Vega from another vehicle...love the features, and it has the added ability to "toy" with it via the included controller. As for the sound I am impressed with the overall addition to the system...it's paired with morel components (front) and coaxial fill (rears) driven by 400w amp, driven by a Pioneer HU. For the price I feel you can't go wrong, especially not losing any cargo area! Is it like the Focal sub driven by a dedicated amp in my other vehicle? ... Of course not, but its a completely different animal...
