stevehh · 11-09-2007, 09:49 PM

thanks for the input, i think ill do some drilling and then cuttin

gbones · 11-09-2007, 10:11 PM

never loan subs, i never have and never would. all my friends wanted to borrow my 15" solo-baric when i got it, "oh man just for the day", F' YOU! i didnt pay all that $ for YOU to f it up. ive heard good and not so good things about bandpass, the boxes are just so damn big.

gbones · 11-09-2007, 10:15 PM

never loan anyone your subs. i never have and never will. when i got my 15" solo-baric, back in '98, everyone wanted to borrow it. and i said F*CK YOU" i didnt pay all that money to let someone else abouse it.

stevehh · 11-10-2007, 08:34 AM

Fuckin A, to both posts...lol

stevehh · 11-10-2007, 12:21 PM

Well I did it, I bought two 12" kicker cvt's after hearing about the shallow mounting depth...man these thump! For their size im impressed!

Now I just need to build a box to go in my x-cab.

I wanna stay with the kicker theme, so whats a good kicker amp to power the two 12's? any suggestions welcome...

scottymizt · 11-11-2007, 01:31 AM

I ran the zx750.1 to the two 10's in the truck we are working on now and i have it only a 1/4 way up and it sounds very nice. The low bass is crazy you wouldn't think it would be by looking at the subs. Either the zx750.1 or the zx1000.1 would work good for you but then it's all up to you

I can give u an estimate of the price(our shop is a kicker dealer) Just out of curiousity what did u pay for the cvt's?

stevehh · 11-11-2007, 10:40 AM

Paid $75 a piece for the 12" CVT's

I think ill stick to the zx750, thanks for the input!

Now as per capacitors go, Ive got two Soundstream SCX-2's 2.0's...should I run them both???

brokeitagain · 11-11-2007, 09:15 PM

run them out to trash can. They will just be MORE of a load on electrical system

stevehh · 11-11-2007, 09:19 PM

Really? Good thing I got both of them on a "crackhead special" 60 bones for both...still had the screws in em!!! rofl

Then sell them for more than that or at least get your money back

xtucking22s · 11-11-2007, 11:13 PM

ya...capacitors are a true waste of money and just arent a good idea...i learned that after i bought mine years ago though. one of those "ya live ya learn" type deals

I think they retail for like 70 bucks...its the chome one with the led read-outs,

Im sure ill find someone to buy them, my garage has become a haven of useless(well to me) car junk.

EleanorS-10 · 11-12-2007, 08:33 PM

No pictures as of yet still a work in progress that will be wrapped in marine grade vinyl but here goes... Alpine CDA-9857 Alpine 6 1/2 component system in doors, Alpine 2 way 6X9's in console with a Type-R 10" sub. Door and 6X9's powered by an Alpine MRP-F450 (700W max) and sub powered by an Alpine MRP-F550 (1000W max) (of course max don't mean squat approx 900W RMS). All in a regular cab... yes your ears can bleed...lol

pretty sure...the combined total is 900W RMS...max would be 1700W...I was refering to amps together then as separate...

Dr.pRymer · 11-15-2007, 07:01 PM

Walmart Special

2 10" Sony Xplods 1100w w/ some Pioneer 760w amp

Deviant Mini · 11-15-2007, 07:25 PM

stevehh · 11-16-2007, 06:30 PM

These things are sooo shallow, yet I heard a set of 10" ones hit and they hit hard.

brokeitagain · 11-16-2007, 10:06 PM

i heard a set in a fullsize truck today and they are pretty impressive

stevehh · 11-16-2007, 10:28 PM

I know, I was like "wow"..."there really 4.5 inches?!?"

I dunno what kinda box I should build tho, ported or not...what'd ya think?

Jonesy · 11-16-2007, 10:28 PM

depends what u want a sealed box will be tighter and more musical but a ported box will be more boomy. Also you can put more power to a sealed enclosure sub vs a ported

906sonoma · 11-17-2007, 07:35 AM

well i have 2 12" crunch GTRs $20 for those and my box is were my pass seat used to be until i get the supplies for my cut through/ blow through.oh yea 300w Jensen amp from Walmart cheap setup

i have one of the 2ohm version 12" in my regular cab, and at first i wasnt impressed, it didnt sound the best, but after a week it sounded amazing and it hits like a fat kid sitting down for cake, its insane, considering i paid $270 for it and the kicker 400.1 amp, my brother paid $200 a sub for his system i put in and it doesnt hit the hardest

stevehh · 11-18-2007, 02:00 PM

Yeah they are cheap and sound awesome

beaniebmx · 11-18-2007, 10:27 PM

the local shop wanted like $300 for a 2ohm 12" in the kicker thin sealed box, and im like.. no thank you, got it on ebay for $105, amp for $175, so i got a good deal on everything, and it sounds absolutely amazing, better with windows down, i miss the leg room but its a regular cab, nothing i can do abou tit

stevehh · 11-19-2007, 04:02 AM

300!? let them find some sucker.

Reg. cab got real old real fast for me with my 99, thats why I went with an X cab this time.
