Anyone have a sick system in your car?

Well heres mine, Homemade box with a 12" kicker cvx and a 750.1 kicker amp.
Does not look pretty, but it pounds. Box is 2.5 cubic feet with 1" thick mdf and is tuned to 35 hz

 

only thing thats high end in mine is the Pioneer Premier subwoofer, otherwise everything else is alright

 

I don't have a system yet, just a Dual head unit.

One your box, it really just needs some nice carpet to cover the MDF, otherwise, I think you've done a nice job on the construction.

 

nice setup man gotta carpet that sucker, ive got 2 12''s with a 1200 watt amp nothin special till im workin again. if u go to the audio/electronics section here there is an entire thread full of systems u should check it out man

 

TYPE R 10 in custom made box with Kenwood 1800 watt amp

Clean Bass

 

I jsut got a system in my car, what do you guys do about the rattling that seems to come from the rear deck behind the rear seats?

 

dynomat.. very expensive..

 

ya i hate the rattle! cant wait til i can get some dynomat

 

where did you put it?

 

My box barley fits, it touchs the bottom of the speakers. It does not rattle too much though. It could still be better. The key is though is to get the box as far in the trunk as possible. It gives the sub more room to vibrate everything else.

 

There are plenty of other brands that are a fraction of the price and twice the quality. Dynamat, you're just paying for the name.

NissanTun3r:
I found this thread on Google. Surprisingly, it was the third or fourth result down. Shows how much the org has contributed to car-related searches outside the Maxima.

As far as the rear deck, you don't necessarily need sound deadner to stop the rattle. A good piece of foam will do, and it's not so much the rear deck as it is the seat belt holders ON the rear deck. Housecor has a writeup on his site about how to stop the rattle.

 

2 12inch pioneer premiere pro series subs, running at just 1000 watts. slams.

 

3 12'' Rockfords with a 1200watt kenwood pushing them, wakes the neighbors, but nothing out off control.

 

dont want to jack but how do i or where can i search to see how to post pics on replys??

 

same subs as me

 

still workin on it.....

 

anybody ever have a flat tire while the sub box is bolted to the trunk, cause thats how mine is and im hoping that doesnt happen to me cause that would be a b***h to get out and change ?

 

Well, Ive had 4 12'' JL audio subs with 2 alpine m-1000 amps...
Then I had 2 15'' PA **** Subs with 2 PA Gothic Series amps 3200

Here is a vid fo the 4 12s.. its very old, when I was in highschool (loudest system around.. Note: I know it rattles, I didnt care, I was 17)

 

You can do something like this and you wont have that problem. Costs all of $20.




Crappy system at the time. This was in 06. Car and system are both gone.

yeah but it sounds like crap, no offense\.

 

Nice systems, how much you guys pay for all that?

Later on I'm going to be getting a 12" fi audio sub. These subs are the best brand out there imo. Fi are the best musical subs.
My friend has a 15" fi btl in a huge 4 cubic foot box in a little volkswagen gti. That is the loudest sub I ever heard.

 

Kicker Comps. Amps and mids are nothing special. Eveything sound good to me. Not a big fan of big "thump". This system hits hard enough.

 

my amp was $100 from Wal-Mart, wiring was $50 from Canadian Tire, Sub was $550 for $330 at the Car Audio show last May

Car Audio show was funny though, lots of ricers there

 

almost EXACTLY what I want to do, but its gonna be facing toward the cabin and off 1k watts or more

 

you don't want to face the subs towards the cabin, it is not as loud.

 

i only paid about 1700 for everything. it is... loooouuuuddddd... pretty useless but what the hell.

 

Only paid? Thats a hell of a lot of money to spend on a system.

 

it was worth it lol. the most expensive were the subs. 225 a piece. buying an amp fri dont know how much i'll post a pic. ma audio or memphis.

 

so with the amp it should be worth bout 2g's

 

so true!! they sound much clearer with them speakers facing towards the back of the car. i even tried facing them up and no good. my new box will face one inward through the 'hole' where tou throw **** from the backseat to the trunk. and the other two on the sides.

 

Ive tried all up, towards cabin, and away from cabin. sounds much better when pointed away

 

I rock 1 10" infinity referance in a Ebay box with a dual amp that powers the woofer to perfect RMS spec and the thing hits pretty good. I had a guy who owns 2 12' type-x's comment on how well it hit. any who it cost me 180 for everything so im proud of it. I like my highs and i can tell sometimes when it just cant hit the lows but....im over it.

 

same here... so much money and now i just have it sooo low. neeever have it loud. just to shut up 'homies' when they pull up and smile at me while blasting their... 'wonderful' music.

 

subs were $250 each almost 3 years ago, amp was ?, Wiring was free, and the box was $300. I have ~$1000 in the sub setup.
