new jam in the car

Recommended Posts

Well guys, thought you might want to see what I got in the car finally. After a LOT of hard work (totally dynamatted the car, custom mounted Utopia tweets in the front, etc etc) I got the subs in today and started hittin on em w/ the Fosgate T20001bd. Here's a quick pic after I got the subs in. The box is 2.25 cubic ft. per sub, tuned to 32Hz.

It's not the Cadillac of Meade's, lol but it'll do for me. :)

btw, props to Fi, Scott, Nick, everybody on the "team." I played the subs for about 15 minutes and I'm ready to go jam em tomorrow hehe.

my god, it HITS lol. I used to think my L7's in my truck hit hard. Had em in 2.67 cubes at 33.6 hz on a KX1200.1...buuuut wow. Fi FTW. I'll get some vidz up when I get my JL amp back for the highs. I'll have it in tomorrow probably. I'm very very satisfied w/ these subs. All I need now is a high output alternator lol. I'm getting dimming w/ just the Fosgate. The radar detector showed the voltage dropping to 11 something (that poor little thing was flopping around like a psychotic fish..gotta find a way to secure it) and that's with the regular batt in the front and Yellow top in the back.

Thanks guys. Yeah, I'll get some more pics and videos as soon as I get my JL amp back. Right now I'm runnin Fi subs only lol. No highs or mids. The JL amp was messed up last year when a prick dropped a set of weights on top my false floor...and screwed up the RCA's in the amp. I had it ghetto rigged, zip tied the RCA's so the would be stationary and they worked fine.....until I got the Fi's and they rattled the hell out the amp and would shut the highs off lol. So anyway, it's in the shop right now....hopefully get it back soon, if not I'll get another one.

Well guys, here's a quick vid I got to take this past weekend. Doesn't do the system much justice. But, I'll get some better vidz when I'm actually finished. Ordering a new alternator and replacing some wiring. It should be up soon...maybe a week or so. But, until then...enjoy this short clip.

You can see the voltage dropping in the radar detector. The doors were wide open, so there wasn't nearly as much movement as when they're closed. But, like I said...just a quick vid I'll get better ones.
