Cptsnuggle

I just got my death row's hooked up and running figured I would start a thread and share some photos and answer any questions about the new DR. System consists of a IA 20.1/ 2 DR 12's/ Cheap JVC head unit (lol to broke to upgrade at the moment) my friend custom built a ported box tuned to 32hz not sure on the dimensions but I can get em. Door speakers are 3 way fusion battery is a 3400d with a 220 mechman alternator. I'll have some photos and videos up probably starting monday. So far my first impressions are great. The sound quality is outstanding with zero distortion even with my radio turned all the way up. My whole ride shakes and flexes (which I plan on getting murder mat 2 fix.) My only complaint is i'm not hitting to many high notes as well as my old dual subs. I'm sure it's an error on my part. I plan on tuning the amp later to see if that fixes the problem.

I'm loving them so far. Didn't get pics of the install but I'm adding to the system this week with a clarion deck and a vega 4 channel amp for my door speakers. I have to re-run my grounds and power wire. (its going through my doors and not through the firewall plus the grounds are not "properly done". I'll post some new video soon of the subs in action. A lot of my friends was doubting my subs because they haven't heard of incriminator audio. lets just say the majority couldn't even sit in my car for more than 20 seconds. king of bass cd got rid of the weaklings pretty fast. Btw will these subs handle a second 20.1 in the future? (next summer)

yea my back window and back plastic cover flex as well I just need to find a good spot to play. I'll have more pics of the subs and amps up soon-ish. been kinda busy atm. I may need some help latr having some trouble with distortion on my door speakers, not my subs. I have a cheap HU which might be the culprit. Also my doors vibrate and flex pretty bad. I don't know if this will mess up the latches or not.

Here's a quick vid. I'm still searching for a good spot to get some better videos.

I'm really liking the Death row subs. Sound quality and bass is quite deafening.

thanks for the help guys. I post a build log soon on the IA sub-forum.

I currently have a jvc HU and it only has one rca. i have both rca cables wired to my 2 channel amp to my current subs, I want to install a second amp for my front door speakers. I just ordered new subs and a amp from IA. So it will be two death row's running on a 20.1 and a power acoustik 2 channel amp for my doors. So how would I do this or do I need a new head unit?

Kenwood KDC-HD455U Thanks for all the help guys. just 3 more questions. Is this HU descent, and if I was to use the split for now I would basically hook the rear rca to the amp running my door speakers and the sub rca to my mono amp. Then adjust the 2-4 channel amp for my doors. Lastly I've never ran this much bass before, I've been running some walmart duals off a pyle amp so should I still be able to hear my music without a door amp? my current door speakers are fusion. (sry for so many questions)

JVC kdr330 50x4 Car CD Player with Dual Aux Inputs this model. so is there anyway to hook up a mono amp along with a 2 or 4 channel amp for my doors? if not could you recommend a good hu for under a 100 that would be able to. I kinda blew my budget getting the new subs and amp. I just don't want the subs to overpower my door speakers.

I finally got everything figured out. I'll make a build log in the following weeks for those that are interested. thanks for all the help guys and especially smashed and danp for saving me from buying a powermax alt.

Hey guys I would appreciate a little help with a new build. I'm currently rocking a pair of dual 12s in a band pass box with a pyle amp... Feel free to laugh at my current system. I listen to rap/metal/rock/ and some dubstep. My current system doesn't meet my needs although it has been kicking for over 3 years now. This summer I managed to work 2 full time jobs to replace my car audio. I'm currently driving a 2006 cobalt ls with a 115 amp alternator. trunk dim are 34W and 26 deep or around that ball park. I looking at the 12 inch death row series subs and a 2200d soundqubed amp. I would like a setup that is insanely loud and still sound great. For the build I'm looking at the following parts 250 h/o alt $300 I/0 gauge wire/ terminals/ distribution block etc... $150 Big 3 cheap xs power battery $179 Custom built box $150 death row 12 x2 $750 after shipping Soundqubed 2200d mono amp $439 plus shipping. this is putting me a little over budget after shipping so is their anyways to cut cost somewhere and will the death row's provide enough spl to really feel the bass?

I just found out mechman alternators is an hour from my house so I going with them. No shipping fees

Email is sent your way sir. ebay for the alternator. not sure on the company but it charges at 1200rpm so it seemed good to me. I can double check on the brand. "***Full output of 250 Amps is achieved at over 1200 engine rpm.***" be careful they say over 1200 RPM Which could mean 5k RPM Realistically.. I hope it doesn't mean that, but I get what your saying. btw I checked your jeep build and it looks nice. I'm thinking of doing a build log as well since I haven't seen a bunch of IA builds. I actually chose IA on a coin toss. Sundown was tails and IA was heads. Impossible to decide lol. (I'm not saying this to start a comparison between the two as there is enough brand battles on the main forum.)

My battery is actually in the trunk. with my current system my lights dim on heavy bass notes and I also had to replace my alt last year. and here's the alt linkhttp://www.ebay.com/bhp/chevrolet-cobalt-alternator

Powermax makes the alternator, and I've never considered getting used gear online. I've had some pretty bad luck with second hand purchases.

in the boonies of wears valley lol, and thanks for the wire link. I want to run the subs at 1ohm stable as well and was wondering if I needed the extra battery? or would the alternator be enough.
