Okay so as my sig says i just oredered a bunch of stuff from kicker. Whats your thoughts on my new setup. Planning on making a fiberglass box that allows me to still recline the rear seats. Also you thing i'll have any problems getting the 6.5" ss components to fit. I know i'll ahve to make brackets. Modications are not a problem i work full time aas a stereo installer. As soon as get soem more cash i'll be ordering an avn 6600 with two eclipse headrest monitors.

 

cool. i'd do the deck before the entire stereo but thats just me

 

I agree. i had my 2 12" kicker cvr on my stock radio and it was HORRIBLE. the louder u turn the music=more base, but less sound.

do the the deck first

 

I'm not installing everthing until i get my tv's, while i'm saving for those i need to build my box, dynamat everything, and build a false floor so it'll all work out in the end.

 

Here's my Kicker system:



fiberglass is the ****!!!!

 

wow, and myte i ask

jus how does that sound???

 

sounds good. I dont have an amp powerful enough to really the move the subs so I keep it low because I dont want to damage the subs since they are underpowered. Im looking around for a good deal on a Kicker amp with at least 600w rms. And that amp in the middle is for speakers...

 

coo. coo
wat size gauge do u have

 

I have 4 to 8

 

coo, i was thinkin bout addin another 12 or 15 to my system (the square one) in the future, prolly like a year or so.

but im good for now. but a custome box wood be better than the basic dual 12" box that i have now

 

My subs are the same but round comp vx's have all the same internals as L7s. My amp will push 1500 watts rms which is exactly what these subs are rated at. It should hit really hard!!!!

 

coo
jus make sure u post some pics when its all done

 

will do

 

Yeah, these subs can really take alot of wattage. I dont really want them that loud though, and running 1000w would mean i would have to rewire from 4 to 0/1 and Im not in the mood to spend more money or time....

 

You'll not damage the subs at all as long as your gains are set properly so the subs are getting CLEAN power. When you try to compensate for having inadequate wattage by turning the gain up, is when you run into "dirty"(clipped) signal which CAN and WILL damage your subs...

it's all in correct initialization of the components

sorry for the O/T

 

yeah, thats what I mean. The wattage I have now can barely move the subs. I know most people would just turn the gain up, but I leave it set at the proper level so that i wont blow my subs...

 

CRAracer05, id reccommend upgrading the 650.4 to the 850.4. ive used the 650.4 on the SS series before and it definatly didnt have enough to power it properly. those speakers are badass with enough power.

 

Kicker makes awesome subs an amps I have 2 12" L7's in my mustang, the components are descent as well....

 

Replacing the deck has the least impact on performance. Many decks would be a letral move at best.
