From the looks of you should have saved you money for a haircut and phone. Possibly do some work to the truck so it doesn't sound like Mr. T beating on a metal building lol.



Looks good, paint the box or something though. I was thinking about getting a HU like that since my pioneershit died. Do you notice a diff in sound if the box is closer or further from the seats?

haha woww. yeah i DESPERATELY need a hair cut. and my phone messed up about a month ago. had to switch to one of my old ones. =[ this headunit is great!! and i just built this box late the other night and wanted to get it in and test it out, so i havent had a chance to paint or anything, i might just leave it natural. and the further back it is facing the trunk, the louder in my car.

AQ1200D.. and thanks rovin, yeah i think i did great. theres this noob from here that has 4 15's. 2 RF p3s, and 2 memphis ???, not sure of the model. on some crappy logic amp in an expedition. and he sat in my car and said wow, how can one 12 be louder than mine.. he claimed i had more speakers that he couldnt see and stuff! haha and the second skin will be used, but not on this vehicle.. i should be getting a small suv here soon. :-) and probably 2 18s or 4 15s will be going into that.

Great job Eric. I sure miss those loud wangers...

Try placing the box further into the trunk, positioned in the same direction and you should notice a small difference.

looking forward to your next set up..

further into the trunk? liike closer towards the cabin? or closer to the rear of the trunk? if thats the case, it can't go any closer towards the rear of the trunk or there will be some rubbing between the sub surround and my trunk... and yeah i am looking forward to it too..

Closer toward the cabin...you should get a louder and lower response. If the box cannot move more that 1 ft in that direction you may not notice any change.

I like the vids. Definately hits great for a single 12" setup. Try
Lil Boosie ft. Foxx and Mouse-- Loose as a Goose
Hurricane Chris featuring Superstarr - Halle Berry (She's Fine)
Busta Rymes- I Got Bass
Lil Wayne-New Orleans Magic
They work real well with your tuning.

got pretty decent sq, but you really cant tell because everything in my car rattles and my car itself rattles.. and Treez- i can probably move it like 4 more inches, but i doubt it would be an audible difference... and mark thanks, yeah its def. loud for a single 12 and thanks for the songs. ill try em out.

haha well its mostly junk that cant be tightened.. like the main thing, is this plastic thing that seals my seat from my trunk and it rattles BAD.. other than that, its the trunk lid, my antannae thing, my fenders, haha just everything. yall need to give me some more songs though that would rock on my tuning.

Fatmat the he11 out of the entire trunk... it will quiet it down quite a bit.

you can do that and it will help, but the trunk is going to be lift off the weather striping making a terrible noise, best thing for that is adding another thing of striping to it. its $25 at a parts house

Looks good bud!Upload I think you should try to put a box for two of those subs in the trunk.

You have plenty of room. You could put box for two subs, an amp for them and two bigass batts back there.








The car may sag in the rear just a bit tho.......
