Haven't done nothing much to BMW, looking to buy new amp in june.

Will JL audio 13W7 take 2,5kw RMS ?

 

lol... Did audio for my friend's scooter. Still need to finish up: add bass filter for woofer, seal all the edges, add frame for HU, cover with carpet and maybe port it.

 

 

[Sencheezy 689]

What are you gonna wrap it in?

[Estsound 7]

Cover it with red or blue carpet. If i got the question right lol..

Got my 4/0 gauge wiring for BMW today. Hopefully i make enough money to buy kicker kx2500.1 amp next month!

[Julian 641]

I have the same mono block as you, just in the 4 channel model.. I absolutely love it, I've had it for the last 6 years and it has seen many builds.

[Estsound 7]

210ft wiring for door speakers.

[jcarter1885 995]

Whats going in the doors that requires that much wire?

[Estsound 7]

8 speakers into front doors and 6 for back doors.

Looking good

[Estsound 7]

Will continue soon. Sold BMW and driving 2000yr Audi A6 avant now.

[Estsound 7]

Here it is, kept audio from bmw. This time i want to make it look really clean. Build new enclosure etc.. Almost the same trunk space bmw had..

[Shogen 325]

Sec'y Audi

[Estsound 7]

Did not like audi so swaped it back for bmw. Also made new enclosure today. Gets really loud @ 24-27hz.

Long time no see, traded my BMW E39 for MB C180 and BMW E32, then sold MB. Now rolling with this:

I need box design ideas for JL 13W7

[Estsound 7]

So i decided to sell 13w7 and got 10" woofer instead. This will more likely to be SQ build. New woofer is Domotec ms810 comes with 200rms.

Also got box ready for it

(video is in estonian) got it with $40 and ita incredible how accurate this thing is even in ported enclosure.
