2 15" IA Lethal Injections

Recommended Posts

I anticipate trunk rattling so bad he'll start saving for sound deadener before upgrading anything else.

thats an understatement! haha

My experience has been that the AP15001D is a TANK! Very stout and strong amp. Puts out good clean power. I love it. I'm sure he will like it also.

Beautiful work !

Congratulations !!

Better save for some good deadener, because this trunk will be louder than the subs!

The subs seem so close of the trunk.

We got things powered but not really set up, I just adjusted the ssf and turned up the gain 1/2 way. After about 30 seconds my wife ran outside saying the bass was making our 11 month old cry, so I sent my cousin on his way till we could tune elsewhere.

The trunk rattles like crazy, though it sounds really clean otherwise. It's not retarded loud or anything, but this is the lowest powered setup I've worked on in years so I wasn't sure what to expect.

We'll hopefully tune tomorrow and try it out on different music.

From behind the car the trunk sounds retarded. It's so noisy, but you don't here that inside the car too bad. Hopefully there will be deadener before too soon.

Here is the bit of video we could take before neighbors looked angry, I was surprised with the air it moved from the trunk with such little power. My camera really doesn't pick up flex well, but here it is:

going to have to put cement on that lid to hush that one up. :santa:

What amp did he go with, the AP?

:D lol, I tried to show it but his whole rear bumper and everything moves. The trunk latch is attached to the area where is tail lights are and they flex in and out too - definitely going to take something more than a layer or two of deadener.

He's using the AP 1500d, which honestly didn't impress me near as much as the subs did. Just running with the volume very low (we were talking) it became hot. Once it heated up it just stayed at that temperature- I guess it wasn't cook-an-egg hot, but it was much warmer than I'd expect an amp with no issues to be. It worked fine, but I hope he gets a bigger amp soon because these subs would eat it up imo.

I bet :)

He really wants the saz-1500 but it would've went over budget. I'm pushing him to get an American Bass 120.1 in the next few months.

Thanks.

Lowes was the only place I know of that carries it. It's like 9 bucks a can and took 2 cans. Not too bad for the area it covers, though it isn't as durable as say truck bed liner.

It's really loud from down the road- either that or I'm not used to hearing fairly loud vehicles driving in my area.

is the rear speakers still installed?

if the rear stage is not ubber important to you, it would help to remove them, port through the rear deck......

I say this asuming that the rear seat is installed back to it's original location.....

porting through the rear deck would take some pressure off the trunk lid and let it into the cabin...

also, if you are interested, i could give you a few other tips on getting that lid to hush quite a bit....on the cheap.

looking good.....

Thanks a lot. I'll pass it on to my cousin, but he doesn't really want to do much more. He has his rear speakers, but he doesn't want to port the deck. From what I've been told I have like 2 builds to do pretty soon here before I can get back to the Tahoe.

I think plans are changing. It seems this setup may soon be in an explorer on a 3000d :)

Then the 1500 will end up on a sealed Alpine type-x 12. Just waiting for the go ahead on that.

Forgot a few pics of the h/u wiring. I soldered the harness and shrink-rapped everything. This was before the remote wire was added, but you get the idea. I HATE a wiring mess in the dash :suicide-santa:
