Just like the title says anything new with you guys, i just picked up another JL 1000/1 for a crackhead price and now im looking for another 13 W7 to put with my other 13 W7 and 1000/1 and probably run up to Toby's to see what it puts up on the Termlab, just wondering if anyone else pick up some new stuff and trying something different or new

Still waiting for my car to sell!

I got all my mids/highs here, ready to order 4 more SAZ-1500Ds, 2 SAX-100.4s and a SAX-100.2.

Talked to Erik at Kinetik and Im ready to order 3 more HC2400s.

Talked to Nate at Excessive Amperage and Im ready to order the alternator as soon as I find exactly what engine the van will have.

Got my HU sitting in my room.

Scott knows Im ready to buy subs, I just dont have any place to put 24 15" subs.

I'm finally getting around to setting up atleast something in the Jeep. Being so limited with a vehicle which has absolutley no space, no security, and is out in the weather with it's top off 90% of the time really sucks for anythign car audio related. So everything has to be weather-resistant, stealth, AND space-savvy.

Doing a sealed eD 7kv.2 under each seat off an Alpine mrp-m450, 2 pairs of Alpine Type-S 6.5 coaxials, and a cheapy Kenwood KDC-135 deck (being I've already had 1 cd player stolen out of it). Will probably upgrade the deck to an Alpine in near future....if the current isn't stolen. Nothing will look out of the ordinary other then the aftermarket deck. Sub boxes are going to be fiberglass resin'ed on outside and sprayed with truck bed liner to help weather proof them. Nothing spectacular, but a nice little addition to an open-air, offroading Jeep. ;) Will post some pics when completed.

My ported for my 7kv2's is done, sounds pretty good. Kicks are done and doors are done. Looking at new hu's but probably wont get anything.

A buddy of mine put all marine gear in his. Sounded pretty good. I think alpine makes marine amps and subs that can handle a little bit of water getting on them, and his head unit could take all the water getting on it
when he washed out the inside of the jeep. Just another idea for you

What are the specs/dimensions on your ported box? And how much power are you throwing at those things? I'm planning on giving mine about 200w rms a piece.

John, You need to check out my suburban tailgating machine. I went with tactile transducers under the front seats, a set of 8's and tweets (made coax) in fiberglass kick panels, a TL 8 as a center console (it and kicks are coated in bedliner), and a hidden, protected CD player, that is controlled by a Pioneer CD-MR80D marine remote unit (designed to be mounted on swim platforms, etc.), which is also hidden behind a motorized panel.

oh yeah, the suburban is now a big convertible.

I based it off this

Free Ported Subwoofer Plans brought to you by SubwooferTools.com [insert slogan here] (http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/ported-box.asp?Ew=36&Eh=7.5&Dia=1&Xmax=13&Vd=.04&NumW=2&Vb=1.5&Fb=33&Qts=&Vas=&Fs=&CE=0)

but adjusted to fit the back of my truck. They are off my 500/1 right now. I had them in a too small sealed and they were weak as hell.

What size was that one? I'm doing about .23 sealed per sub....eD recommends around .20 sealed.

.16 or so. It was such an error in calculation but I forged on ahead anyway. My 6.5's in my doors were louder :lol:

If you sold the JL equipment you have now, you could spend the money and buy something and get much more for your money.

Keep in mind I ran an entire car of JL audio once, complete with 2 W7s.

yea i know, but i love JL products and i have always wanted 2 W7's i dont know why, maybe one day ill grow out of it and buy some stuff like you, i was going to sell it all and do it but i just figured im happy with what i got
