two to four JL 10" duel coil subs OR two JL12" duel coil subs

alpine mono chanel amp for every sub.

alpine four chanel amp for speakers.

alpine or infinity 6x9 's in the back

alpine or infinity componants in the front.

and a alpine head unit.

if you cant tell im in love will alpine

injungleist · « **Reply #2 on:** October 14, 2009, 09:07:10 PM »

thoes all sound good, but dont forget the caps to help power all that hardware.
i personally would go with
2x10s dual voice coils in a mtx box
2x 6x9s in rear
2 compsite for the front (5 inch and pieazos)
2x 800-1000 watt mono block amps for the subs with caps for power
and 0 gauge wires all around for the power.
(you can have all the watts in the world, but without the proper wiring the system wont be able to max out.

yeah probably need to throw second a yellow top bat in there as well. and the caps and wire sliped my minde.

ive never been a huge fan of mtx my self but theres nothing wrong with it.

alpine is pretty good.

i installed 12 speakers in my mothers car, all Bose speakers.
2000 euro:P

Tec_ · « **Reply #5 on:** October 15, 2009, 04:54:26 PM »

not a fan of bose at all. they have a nice sound but for the same price there are so many beter sounding, looking, quality speakers you can get.

MTX Jackhammer. Nuf Said.

hope u have 4 people to help u and a forklift not to mention a

load of power and a ridiculous amp

alman101 · « **Reply #9 on:** October 17, 2009, 04:10:34 PM »

jackhammers are over rated and not worth the price. Go for 2 DC level5 18s and about 3000watts on each and it will shake the

out of any vehicle

budgray19 · « **Reply #10 on:** October 17, 2009, 04:30:18 PM »

2 or 3 jl 10w7

alman101 · « **Reply #11 on:** October 17, 2009, 04:54:27 PM »

if you want good cheap subs get TC Sounds Epics, they hit hard

budgray19 · « **Reply #12 on:** October 17, 2009, 05:03:09 PM »

theres a problem in that statement. and its cheap

Over rated? have you actually ever heard one IRL?

budgray19 · « **Reply #14 on:** October 17, 2009, 06:00:45 PM »

it would make lifting it a :censored:load easier
u dont wanna be violent with it. plus u need a truck or a wagon

alman101 · « **Reply #15 on:** October 17, 2009, 06:25:17 PM »

my cousins owns an install shop, ive heard a ton of different equipment and setups in my life, jack hammers hit real low, you need a few 10s or 12s to compensate for it. ive seen 2 jackhammers in action in my life.

blackburn · « **Reply #16 on:** October 17, 2009, 07:14:42 PM »

in my R32 ive got a Toby Speakers Sheriff, with a 2500W Kicker Competition Amp driving it. ABout to order the Kenwood DDX814 to replace the stock Monsoon headunit, and ill be done with car stereo, unless i upgrade to a Toby Ranger or Marshal. (My dad has a Marshal in his truck and its loud as

)

Toby speakers hit harder and are louder than any other subs ive ever listened to. My Sheriff is louder than my friends 2 JBL 12" s

loganbyers07 · « **Reply #17 on:** November 16, 2009, 06:32:31 PM »

why r u guys all talking about Watts???

its the RMS that is way more important.

Reaper · « **Reply #21 on:** December 04, 2009, 09:13:44 AM »

Everything most people are talking about is in Watts RMS... unless they specify peak...

loganbyers07 · « **Reply #22 on:** December 08, 2009, 06:15:23 PM »

i may be getting part of my dream setup tommorow. I found a guy with a 13w7 for cheap. I am going to talk to him about it.

robin1989 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 09, 2009, 02:21:33 AM »

all this talk of trunk setup but no pictures.

loganbyers07 · « **Reply #24 on:** December 11, 2009, 05:57:04 PM »

I will put up pictures after I get some different subs. And my subs arent really in a trunk. They are behind my backseat in my avalanche.

ModderDmo · « **Reply #25 on:** December 11, 2009, 07:10:25 PM »

I don't have a trunk, but I do have space behind my bench seat.

I have two old, old Kenwoods in a custom homemade box, but I'm going to put two kickers after the holidays.

i can give you pics of a rusty car and a couple of boxes in the corner. I'm still building the car and its no where close to that level of completion.

oh okay, well I am also building my system up. 2 8" w7 JL audio subs with a 1000/1 JL Audio amp.
Midgate box in my 03 avalanche. Probably going to do an hd series amp for the door speakers and install a car computer. It will be nice.
