Need help with subwoofer / amp selection

I'm purchasing a 2007 standard coupe. I need to tell the dealer what amp and subwoofers to put in it.

I know they have boss speakers. Can someone recommend something with strong bass?

I had a 2008 and replaced the Bose speakers with Focal K2Power. They rocked it hard. I also installed the JL Audio Stealthbox with a 10W3V3 Sub that thumps pretty hard.

I still have the JL Stealthbox and sub, and they are for sale right now. PM if interested. (I'll give a good deal.)

I have a 250w JL Audio amp and a 10" JL Audio sub. I love it. Not too much but if you want to thump, you can.

Here is my sound setup:

(Pioneer 4300 DVD HU, JL stealthbox sub, Focal 165KR fronts, Focal 130KRC rears, Kenwood XR5S amp)

It sounds awesome! Give Dennis at Double D a call. He can hook you up really nice.

You may want to post this in the the general Corvette electronics/audio section, as lots of knowledge on this sort of thing there.

Another vote for JL Stealthbox. Heres mine powered with a 300/2v2. Quality bass that has good volume also.

Ask in the audio forum section for door and hatch area speaker and amp recommendations.

+1 that you'll need a subwoofer box for the truck area...like JL Audio stealth box or a Bazooka tube.
