I thought you had mentioned a 6.5" speaker version.

Looks great, was hoping for an update. How's it sound with that placement?

Here is my setup, I was going to have bigs install it all for me because he's awesome. But I just couldn't get time to come down for him to install and I couldn't handle listening to the stock radio anymore. The soundstream amp turned out to be a tad taller that I would have like. But you still have room for a sub enclosures. I also made another carpet for the rear hatch so i could save the factory. It's not 100% done.
2 6'5 Polx db651 2 Pioneer TS-SW841 SOUNDSTREAM STL6.620 under the plate. |

Just curious,in the pic, are the speakers enclosured (vented or sealed) in a speaker box? If so, what's the interior cu. ft. for the pioneer speakers and interior cu.ft. for the Polk db551 speakers? Where did you mount the amp? FYI: Nissan dealer price on the trunk mat is $105 US. |
So like others I wanted to keep weight down. I used a 3/4 chunk of birch plywood for the plate. The amp is mounted on bracket cut from the same material and bolted to the two 7/16 bolts coming up through the floor. Smack dab in the middle of the space. So right now With the 3/4 bracket and the height of the amp I only have 1/2 between the subs and the amp. I may make another bracket from some thinner material, or I may just make the sub enclosures out of some epoxy fiberglass I have left over from working on my scarab. So as of right now they are all running free air. I've been keeping it turned down till I get time to enclose the subs. I'll leave the 6'5 running free air I imagine. If I remember right, I'm not sending anything lower then 80 hertz to them. Unless someone tells me they sound better then they already do enclosed. 105 bucks is cheaper then I thought it would have been. I have 15 bucks in material and 20 minutes in time on the one i made. So not all bad. I just need to finish the edges.

Off-topic: Is your boat a 38 foot Wellcraft Scarab? I had one myself with twin supercharged 540 big block engines back in the day. Nice offshore boat. :tup: |
I was going to weigh the plate before I mounted the speakers but forgot. The plate is done for the most part. All I did was wrap it in the same felt I made the truck mat from. I want to say the plate weighed right around 5 pounds.. The bracket for the amp, maybe 2 pounds. I went with the 3/4 plate to give me just a tad more room for the amp and so that I could keep the 6'5 speakers out towards the outer edges. The speaker grills made them just a tad to big to fit.
Monster boat man... Mines only a 32ft with twin 454 magnums. Crushing waves is the best... ok maybe more like skipping across the top heheeh. I recently sold my Raptor, and the scarab is next. I love boating.... But man... gas prices are melting a hole in my pocket. A guy down the road as a 44ft with triple 502's... I can't even imagine... But if you have a 150k+ boat you probably don't care. |

Sold the boat years ago due to having little time to enjoy it. |
