this was my old setup in my trunk

the NEW hotness

custom made 6.5 cubed box... built by rpfuror on caraudio.com
paint or carpet coming soon, still undecided

this is my baby 1501D, 1500 watts @ 2ohm, just what the kickers need, gotta clean it up a bit, but for now its okay.

i know its the whats in your trunk, but this is whats up front... see the base **** in the ashtray, comes in handy for then days when i wanna show off.. my neighbors hate me.

Is that your purse in there too?

 

[QUOTE=bigmike8771]
Just got some MDF board measured to the best of my ability and used a jigsaw to cut it out. I have my 12w7 attached to the car with hurricane brackets on each side and i screwed them in the side and attached them to the bolts on the floor.Put the extra MDF board under the box to level things out and strengthen where the trunk dips b/c of the spare. B/c its attached though it makes my whole car shake so i have to sound deadener the trunk.

Are U Still Running the Factory Sub-
It looks Like it is still Installed-
Would it Not Be Much Louder to let the 12w7-
Utilize the Factory "Hole" of the Factory Sub........

Nah, its my wife purse. She is driving it now I am driving my 3rd gen.

 

Sorry for the loss man, but at least its still a max

 

Yeah. But for some reason, it seems to be more fun to drive than the 4th gen. Maybe because it is lowered. It just seems to handle a little bit better.

 

It's the IRS.

 

What is IRS?

 

Independant rear suspension.

 

Ohhh, got it

 

anyone that walled off your trunk. did you have to atach the back of the box inside the car or did you assemble it and place it inside the trunk then?

 

Mine are just free-air, but I bolted mine directly to the sheet metal behind the seat with about fifteen 1/4" screws..

back seat drivers get a great massage when I do sine wave sweeps.

You can do the same with a regular box if you build it properly.

With this setup, I had the box bolted through the back to the sheet metal on the back of the seat. as well, the box went in before the amp rack and the amp rack held everything in place quite nicely.

 

This is the rear shot of the amp rack (from the trunk)


Amps:
Alpine M605 for the subs
Alpine MRV-345 for the Alpine 6 1/2" Componet Speakers in all four doors[/QUOTE]

My amp rack and box are actually seperate. I did it that way to make it to where I would not have to build it in the trunk itself. PM me if you have any questions.

 

you know i still wanna hear those suckers

 

Can't argue with the flavor of the month

Next we'll be hearing crazy talk like Boston and MBQ are shyte compared to Rainbow--We know people, we know...

 

lol....how old was that post you bumped? ED FTL since '03...

 

My trunk is empty......

 

I will post my simple setup. The trunk in my 5th gen is pretty much empty except for this little thing...






and here's the little guy pushing it....

 

Looks good Juan, I need that grill

 

so much trunk space...

 

IN

This is my most current setup, and the one I'm going to keep for a LONG time. That one amp is powering the subs and is bridged to my front stage.

It's simple and clean, unobtrusive and practical, except for losing the ski pass-through.






I know, I know, wire loom...it's going to be partially re-wired once it gets a little warmer.

 

nice amp you bum...have you tried moving the subs around in the trunk? Or does it still sound good with the subs so close to the seats?

 

Lol bum. Haven't tried, they sound fiiine enough for me. Also, I've got the box sitting on the platform. See sig for my trunk carpentry setup.

 

hows the new amp? That shelf looks pretty cool...

 

Sub box is bolted down on that rite?

 

Love the amp, so much headroom, so much clarity..and its just a monster with power.

Yes, box is screwed down on the sides.

 

Here's the latest rendition







Coming soon.......

 

Looks like u got some carpet peeling off the lower left side of your box.

Looks good though.

 

Lol @ DLS grill on RF sub.

 

Yup I gotta glue it up or something, its like that on both sides but, not a pressing issue

Thats why I need a PE grill like Juans

 

can't believe I see an RF sub over the DLS...didn't like the DLS?

 

Is that a HX2?

 

Yup it's an HX2 ....

Oddly enough the DLS was more suited for a sealed box even though all of its specs and info from
DLS recommend a ported one. I wanted to go ported and the hx2 sounds great in the ported
boxes I've tried it in. The DLS didn't fair as well even in a ported box built to DLS spec which
boggles my mind... so I had to stick with the tried and true HX2. Might be goin to a
POWER HX2 along with whats in that box fairly soon

 

gasp! a cardboard box!!

 

I'm pretty sure its all audiobahn in thatbox anyway...

 

Gracias Parag



Nilesh, you have a nice setup there .
