I know theres a mess in my trunk. As for the box, I built it.. so yeah.. it looks like crap. The sub only has 170 watts going to it (its 175 RMS).. but the system sounds decent considering I've only spent about $35 total.

Very good components. The only thing I'd be worried about is ventilation, doesn't seem like theres adequate room for heat to escape from the am heat sinks. Too bad those amps aren't self-cooled.

Well actually is one Zeus 6400 and a Brutus 2005, they pretty good but i don`t know i guess i want something better. As for ventilation i haven`t really got any problems(knock on wood), but i barely blast that thing so..

Lookin good man. You guys did a great job. One suggestion, tap and paper off everything around the port and paint it black, nothing special just some semi-gloss spraypaint will do.

That looks muuuuch better. Notice how your eyes don't wander directly to the port. Good job.

You should really get a better head unit with built-in crossover, that way you can get rid of that outboard cross-over which can introduce noise into the signal path later on. Other than that, the only other thing is that you should try and rearrange your in-trunk audio components to save more space. It's ashame to waste all that trunk space, as big as that trunk is.
