My system

here's some pics of my system: The one of the interior is a little old so when I have the time I'll post a new one.




Crystal 5.25" mids, Crystal .75" tweeters in custom kick panels
Pioneer TS-A6984 4 way 240W 6x9's in the back
Amps: JBL 1200.1 1200 watts
JBL 80.4 360 watts
Sub: Digital Designs 9500 series 1200 watts RMS in a 2.5^3 custom built (by me!) ported box tuned at 45hz
Deck: Alpine 7892
Rockford fosgate capacitor with 4 gauge power wires. Fused distro block. All under the hood wires are 4 gauge.
160 amp Hi-Output alternator (I fried the stock one, oops)
It bumps HARD!!!!

thx, yea I'm new here so I thought I'd post some pics after getting a digital camera.

I'm not trying to brag or anything but I've never heard a single sub hit as hard as this thing does. It beats out most dual sub setups that I've heard around here. The box is made out of 3/4 MDF board and I custom fit it into the t-top well myself. The whole thing weighs about 100 lbs with the sub in it.

Now all I have to do is make it so it doesnt rattle as much!!!!! Any advice? It rattles all around my rear lights and license plate. Any cheap solutions besides dynamat?

I havent had it metered yet, I'm guessing its around the upper 140's/ lower 150's, and for a single sub thats damn good. Everyone thinks I have at least 2 subs back there and when I open it up they are always shocked :-)

I'm going to take more pics of everything today, I know it doesnt look like much yet, but It will be better.

Any suggestions?

Im not sure if I want to add any lights to it, the bass might shatter them. I was thinking about plexiglassing the amps and adding a fan to the remote wire but I dunno.

it would look real nice if you had an amp rack that matched your box.. makes it look a lot more flush and professional. as for lights, its very tough to make it look good.. it usually ends up looking pretty *****. but, if you can get it to look right, lights can be pretty sweet.

Digital Designs are not my favorite by far as far as SQ goes, but thats just my opinion. But they rock in SPL Competitions.
