Amp Board and Sub Box (Pics)

DLHTITAN · 02-03-2005, 07:16 PM

Finished mounting the amps, crossovers and distribution block on the back wall. Kenwood Music Keg is under the passenger seat on a custom plate to get it off the floor. See if you can guess where I put the JL 10w6v2?

looks as though you mounted it on the back of the center console. Got any better pictures, I'd like to see how you did it?

correct. notice on the right of the picture, the passenger seat is missing, and you can see the driver seat belt on the left of the picture.

that is a clean setup. enough electronics to run a high-school computer lab though

Wow, Thats cool....

HOW DID YOU MAKE THAT SUB FIT!!! We all want to know. Did you build a box for it? More info would be greatly appreciated!!

How did you mount the equipment?? Did you screw the amps and xovers right to the back wall?

Thanks

Well I must say that it was alot of work. I used bestachess's idea for the amp board to mount all of my components. 3/4" MDF mounted to the bolts on the rear wall. Amps and x overs screwed to the board.

I ran 1/0 powere wire to a d-block (under the JL 500/1) split to two 4 gauge for power. All new speaker wire. New battery terminals under the hood. I need to take pictures under there soon before it gets too dirty.

As for the sub, it is mounted in a combination of a 3/4" MDF box and fiberglass. I wil take more pictures soon. The box has an MDF bottom, top and back with fiberglass sides to match the contours of the center console. I used to stock plastic piece in back with a hole cut in it for the stacked speaker rings to sit proud of it and mount the sub to. I am still tweaking the adjustments on the amp and the HU for sound.

Very curious, still need more info and pictures of that sub box. Nice work.

smoketitan · 02-04-2005, 12:13 PM

that sub box is awesome --please more pics I feel the need for a 15" woffer

oooooh

how do you like your mbquarts??

and how did you deal with the fuse box on the positive terminal if you changed out the stock postive battery connector

DLHTITAN · 02-04-2005, 01:06 PM

I really like the mb quarts, best sounding speakers I have had so far. As for the fuse box I will get a pic up of it and the other under the hood wiring.

1)hey which w6 is that 10" or 12"

2)and I assume you have the bench seat right, why did you decide to fire it to the back instead of down or up??

3)so did you remove the center storage compartment or fiberglass on top of it?

4)wow much glass/matt did you need (gallons)

5)and finally what postive battery terminal did you use?

6) okay last one promise do you stillhave use of the middle front seat console storage at all

Im so juiced someone did this I was thinking about it for the longest just couldnt fiugre out to get the box in that tight area

SarkaZm · 02-04-2005, 01:49 PM

Looks sweet, can't wait to see more pics. What did you use for speaker wire...looks like belden or something.

Edit: I also would like to see how you did the battery. I was thinking of getting these (kinda cool).

1) 10"
2) Captains Chairs. Had to fire it towards the back and down to get it to fit.
3) I gutted the center storage compartment up to the area for the cup holder
4) About 3/4 gallon of resin and enough mat for three layers
5) Knukonceptz for terminals, wire, d-blcok and the big set screw ring terminals
6) See the pictures. There actually is storage left over.

VERY FRIGGIN CREATIVE

Im impresssed you see that box copied to readily--lol

on our battery terminal is the stcok fuse holder just hangin?? the way you have it set up, how is it secured??

,and you may want to cover the large screw on the top of the terminal ( I have the knu negative terminal post) and that screw is hot--if your hood ever flexes down (since the metal is very weak) and touches that woudlnt be very nice
