Planned Install Take a Look

As trooper will later tell you I had to turn his gain down on his amp because one rockford fosgate punch stage 3 was rattling his and mine ears in his z. One 12 is PLENTY for the z. Also a pdx 5 is going to struggle to push two 10's as aposed to one 12 IMO. Other than that looks like a good setup.

As I said, I posted the same thread asking the same thing.
I really liked the cosmetic look of 2 x 10s, but after some good advice, yes the 12 is MORE than enough.

I don't think Matt and I could sit in the car at anything near half volume LOL,
my setup is freakin loud

Plus you'll save money on the 12, instead of buying 2 x 10's, and the amp required to drive them.

Did not notice the 4ohm DVC of the 1043, don't think the mono part of the amp is 1ohm stable? Looks like I will need a different sub to get the proper load on the amp. I really like the PDX-5 it fit's right where I want to put it, under the sub does not look like a good place for a highpower amp. There must be zero airflow under there.

Matt when you placed the amp behind the seat did you leave it low on purpose? The wiring would have been cleaner IMO if they came tight under the bar into the amp, the RCA's would have stuck up a little high maybe? Also what did you use to secure the amp to the plastic panel? Would you secure it differently if you did it again?

Can't say I have ever run a dual voice coil in series then in parallel with the other sub, this could work to get the 2ohm load on the amp if I used the 1023 instead but not sure if this is a bad idea never done it before. Matt?
