Setup for my car

Recommended Posts

Well here's the final layout guys, let me know what you think.

Subwoofers: 2 12" Fi Q, No Bp, Dual 2

Amplifier: Elemental Designs Nine.1; Wired to 1ohm so both speakers are running 600 watts each.

Enclosure: 1.3 cu ft sealed box.

Now its very embarrassing to mention this but everything else in the car is stock :( (The HU, the door speakers). The reason for this is that this system is going into an 08 accord, and for people who have looked at the factory stereo of the accord(LX model), its kind of difficult to find a HU that will "integrate" into the car without it looking like total crap. It looks very nice the way it is, but its just so damn complicated making the system easier to work with. This is because i cannot control my ipod straight from the factory stereo itself, the car only has an aux input. I've been thinking i could use an adapter to connect to the back of stereo, but that idea is down the drain because of the steering wheel control to the deck. So my only hope now is to get an Ipod wireless remote to switch songs without having to hassle with the ipod itself.

Let me know if you guys need to anything else about the layout, any suggestions are more than welcome.

And if i posted this in the wrong place, my fault.

You can't wire two Dual 2 woofers to one ohm.

You'll need Dual 1.

he is right only options u have with 2 dual2 woofers is .5 ohm, 2 & 8.. dual 1s are what you want

but about that hu thing id check to see if scosche makes some kind of adapter that integrates your after market hu and keeps functions on steering wheel. could be a bit spendy but if its that important then that's what you want to do.

ah dual ones, thanks guys. and about the scosche thing, they DO have an adapter but its kind of weird. i will put up a thread in a different forum for help. but i will make sure to get dual 1 subwoofers

I'd imagine you'll need a larger box than 1.3 cubes for both of those as well. At least 2 cubes net.
