    I wish ya'll could hear it ! It sounds great !
    So that Axxess DSP-X (digital sound processor) does a fantastic job ! It didn't have a preset for a 2019 Prius LE, but I used the preset for a 2017 (which must be the same as it sounds great)
    I got the factory Toyota harness for it, so no wires cut. All plug and play. Kept all my steering wheel controls too.
    So that's running into my Kicker 5ch amp.

    Birth sheet says it's 934wts, but that's into all 2 omh loads. My mids/highs are 4ohm, so my system is probably about 4 x 65 wts rms and 1 x 470
    I love the remote control bass adjuster that came with this amp too.

    Went with 4 Kicker coaxials. Haven't messed with the far forward dash tweeters, and honestly, not sure if I will.
    My Sub is the beefiest little 8" I've ever seen.... About 30 lbs.
    SA SERIES
    The box came out awesome ! Kind of proud of myself. The guys at the stereo shop were impressed. They agreed the tuning came out great. I was anal about getting it exactly .75 cubes, and ported to exactly 35hz. Probably about my 18th or 20th box.

    I still need to play with individual speaker delays (in the DSP) so the sound gets to my ears at the same time....
    But I mean, as is, it sounds phenomenal.

    And it still looks factory. I will post a shot of the sub enclosure later. Tucks in so tightly. I've had a bunch of big luggage back there already. No problems

    Couldn't be happier.

    So the enclosure is kind of a small wedge that tucks right into the slant behind the back seats. It's 6" deep at the top, 8" deep at the bottom and 10" tall x 35 1/2" long.
    I used 3/4" mdf, and covered it in heavy black felt.

    I guess I could have shown this pic, to give a better idea of the shape.... I wanted space on top of the box, for my tripod, which I always carry...
    Remember, the front is the flat side. The back, angled piece tucks against the back seats
