Well, we did a 149.5 with no back seat and 2 15's in the tj....3 hours of tuneing, then we cooked a sub.
We actually gained 1 full db going from hardtop to soft top.
Oh, and zzzzzzzzz, top down you can still hear and feel the bass great.
as it sits without flipping any seats or anything it does a 135.something db at like 40 somehting hz(i forget exactly, cuz its not my truck, its my bros, and i was just messing around).

You know Jeep was semi smart putting the stock sub location where they did... facing the driver in the center console. Only problem is they used a 6" driver with a magnet thick as a pancake. I replaced mine with 8"(ED 9kv.2), MTX mono amp(300w) and I get the tightest bass I've ever felt or heard(SQ wise, not MAX SPL wise). This is not ground shaking bass obviously but you can definately feel it in this position with our without the top on. If you're interested an 8" sub will fit but you have to do a fair amount of cutting to the stock sub box or fab up your own.

My hot ticket in Jeeps has always been to use a pair of 10s and fire them down at the floor. I would recess the baffle so it was 1.5inch from the floor at the tailgate, 3-4" off the floor at the seat, and have it so all the sound funnelled under the back seat. The bass would load off the floor and be much more consistent, even with the top off. A possible side benefit is getting some air moving around the amps under the seat.
