Posted this in Electronics and got no feedback so I'll give it a try here. This is my actual trunk. I need feedback, either good or bad. Also and advice you have to give it a more distict look would be appreciated. Thank you!
Okay, you asked! I like the carpeting, but don't like the location for the amps. Kind of sticks out like a sore thumb. The box is nice and although you would never really see it, it could use some carpeting. Other than that, nice job!
Originally posted by SicK Type-S I like the carpeting, how much did it run you?
What kind of JL sub is that, how many watts is the sub/amp?
Well I got the carpet for free because my father owns a car stereo store and had some laying around. I believe the carpet would be something like $2.00 a yard and I got 5x1 yards so it cost me roughly $10 plus a can of spray glue ($4.00). The sub is an 8" jl w3. It is rated to handle 200 rms (something like that). The digital 300 in powering it with 1000 rms. JL audio underrates there subs always. It have enough bass for what I listen to, but of you are looking for a massive amounts of bass, then this setup would not be for you. Also, because the sub vents directly into the cabin, the bass is much cleaner and I have no trunk rattles at all.
do you have a spare tire? i doubt it, i don't know every little aspect of the s2k yet, i'm waiting on mine....you think i would be able to get some kind of custom enclosure, and stille have room to get the spare and jack out?
I'd stick the amps in the spare tire well instead of the box. They seem to stick out too much. I'd hate to see you get groceries in there. You'd most likely end up whacking a wire or something.
Also, you should get some acoustic benefit from the trunk's volume.
