Audiophile on his quest for an eargasm

DIGItonium

I used to like MB Quart speakers, but man those things are harsh, too. My dad installed the tweeters on the doors in his Z32. It feels like my ears are right next to it.

For a decent setup, I still prefer 12" sub of some sort. I still like JL because it has good mid bass and deep bass is very smooth. My old Elemental Designs sub lacked mid-bass and it was way too deep sounding. For the amp, you can get the JL XD500 is great for a 2.1ch setup, and it's very small. Right now there's no head unit. I've not decided on what I want yet.

No need to go showing the world what you have bumping in the car. Stealth FTW and clean sound.





Edit//

you do lose your spare but thats what AAA is for that being said you have plenty of room for amps

is there something hard under the carpet to protect the sub in case something is sat on it? I love that setup it looks really clean. Do you have to make any sacrifices with the sound compared to a visible enclosure?

if you look a little closer at the carpeted pic you will see the diamond grating that covers the sub. so unless something stabs the through the grate you can throw a bowling ball on it and it won't hurt it



no sound sacrifice and the box is built to spec for that specific sub so it gets used to its potential

Yeah, I thought I saw something under the carpet, but I just wanted to be sure. That really is a great looking setup, is that sold as a kit or something or was it custom for you? I am starting to consider what to do with my sound system once I get my Z, and something like what you have is definitely intriguing.

Cbtech

it is a custom box but you can have it built for less than $500. plus it leaves room for AMPs and there is no need to worry about how to route or hide wires. I would GMAT the trunk though as im sure it would resonate with being hollow.
