new pic of my subs in the trunk

I finally got a pic of my sub box uploaded in my gallery.
also a pic of the rocker switches on my dash...
I will be adding pics of how I installed the flex strips behind my wheel wells. by tomorrow night.

Don't post unless you're actually throwin' the picture INTO the thread. I'm too lazy to go look at your gallery.

Now, where did I put my beer? hmm... *wanders off*

uplode it to a hosting site like photobucket then take the pic url and put it between the img things

or since its ALREADY in your oznium gallery, you RIGHT CLICK on the picture...and at the bottom is properties...click on that..and where it says location...copy that.

then put this

[img ] put url here [/ img]


*Note* without the spaces above

Ahhh I got it.. thanks Tdawg and Drifting
so here it is. I hope.

I like the box.

any time man those duals?

I have seen a few people try to explain the coding in different ways like "remove the letter A, take out the spaces" etc.

Next time just use the code tag, and then the user can simply copy and paste the code and it will work fine.

Code:

nah I'm good, I'm running them with a 1920 watt amp. they hit pretty hard already.
If I did switch out the subs it would just be for looks. I thought about it before but I'm happy with whats in there already.

Looks good! I like it.





Oh yeah, I found my beer.

I think that looks great!

I'm not sure what I'm looking at, do you have a photo of the sub box in the light?

Looking good but you should lose that craptastic tag frame.

To be honest, a buddy of mine has 2 Duals in a bandpass box in his wagon, and I was surprised at how well they hit for being a crappy product name.

where is your 1920w amp installed?? Lets see it

its sitting behind the box, I'm going to try and add lights to it so it glows from underneith but i'm taking on one project at a time.. tomorrow I finish wiring my rear door pannels. I just installed the lights in them I just gotta add power wire to them and run it into the car through that little rubber thing between the door and the car.

after that I'm thinking of moving my box back and holding it down with some brackets and so that I can drill the amp in front of it since I'm thinking about lighting it up. I will get some day pics going too..

I mean, is this the typical bandpass box that comes with subs like that? what amp are you using?

yup, I'm not sure what kind of amp.. nothing like a kenwood or alpine or kicker or nothing, but never the less it puts out 1920 watts ya know??

Wheres this write-up at home boy?

Doubt it, But its fun to pretend.

Those woofers would melt with a real 1920 watts.

Yes. I believe we overestimated.

well Idk thats what it says on the amp.. I'll get a picture up since I'm in question now. and plus
I have it set low since it hits hard.

I'm sure it "says" it. A rule of thumb with car audio is most brands over rate their equipment.

And if you believe everything you read, you have another issue altogether.

You also have a pretty small vehicle in comparison to some so I'm sure they hit hard, thats the miracle of a band pass enclosure- while its more efficient, (and a little louder) you lose the smooth/tight bass from a ported (or even more tight- a sealed box).

I'm not trying to knock your system, I'm just certain its not actually 1,920 Watts. That amp may produce 1,920 Watts on a bench in the optimum conditions right before the output transistors explode, but real world Wattage maybe something in the 200-300 range depending what we're talking about here.

If I remember right the amp does 370 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms (440 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms), or 880 watts RMS x 1 in bridged mode (4-ohm stable in bridged mode).

and that is over rated.

Install looks good though.

OHHHH.. see I dont know much about amps. I just now its kinda big and says 1920 watts on it..
either way it hits pretty hard, well in my car like stated by djtech

well here ya are, this is my amp, I guess its a Kole audio amp.
so tell me how much power you guys think it really puts out.

thing is nice mi pana..

Hey man very nice trunk setup. Really like it. As for the subs used to sell the exact set at bestbuy. We hooked them up and they aren't that bad really. Though we too the 99.00 insignia ones that were rated at like 1400 max and i think 500 rms, (could be wrong) and ran the rockford P1000-1bd to them. And those things would hit for some cheap subs.

Anyways love what you got going on here man keep up the good work and can't wait to see more.

# 2 X 370 RMS 4 Ohm
# 2 X 440 RMS 2 Ohm
# 1 X 880 RMS 4 Ohm

on the amp how many fuses are on it and what size number?
that will tell you more how much it throws out then what they tell you

not so true. my amps don't have any fuses on them, they require external fuses.

so that statement is false.

Well if its got a 20A fuse, theres no way in hell its doing 1000 Watts. Thats what mack is driving it most likely.

I dont know I think there is like 2 or 3 fuses. lets see. I'll be right back, I'll go get some pics.

yup they are 3 25 fuses here some pics. SO WHAT DO YA GUYS THINK?? how much you think it puts out?

how is it false? because your amp doesnt have fuses on it ? well it still requires a fuse



all you do is take how many watts it puts out ... in this case 880 times that by 2 ( 50% efficiency) and divided by volts (say 13.8 )
and that would mean that for it to make 880 watts it would need to have around 130a worth of fuses and it only has 75 so you do that in reverse . ... 75 x 13.8 divided by 2 and its putting out 517.5wrms .... thats if its efficiency is 50% and that box set can handle 600wrms
