1G sound system

i have a 10" mtx terminator (TN10-04) sub in a truck slim box and a bridged renegade amp pushing it (REN550s) i was just wondering how i can get a little more bass for my setup or what i should switch out or any ideas. i went with this setup because i got it from the brother everything was brand new and i gave him 40 bucks and some stuff and my gsx has almost no room in the hatch, anyways i would really appreciate some help or tips, thank you very much

If it's currently in a sealed enclosure, swap it out for a vented one as that will give you more low end response. Also placement plays a big roll in output of the sub. Facing it towards the rear of the car usually yields the best results. you can also try stuffing the box with pollyfill to make the box sound bigger than it actually is. To be honest, don't expect too much from the terminator series as they are not MTX's best line to say the least.
