Anyone know of of a snug fitting dual sub box that'll fit in back of the second seats? Im taking out far back seats want to leave middle seats. Only wanting to do dual 15" subs. Should they be enclosed also?

Sorry for late responce. I have very minimal experience. I made a 8" mono sub box. Never tested it though, just was a project for wood class which I got a 98 on. But no true box building experience. I'm looking for who ever does the cheapest yet does a very good job, though ironically its hard to find both qualities. I would like it to firmly fit in the back of a chevy 2001 tahoe, behind the seats. Its about 41-41.5" of space from side to side in back, up to 22" from floor to near rimming of the seat. I would like it also fabricated so it matches the interior.

I'm buying 2 JBL GTO1502D (15") and I went on their website to see a box layout. But I don't really want to do that. Anyone have any ideas or sites maybe I could see a dual box layout. Someone told me I should do enclosed no vents, but I think I might need vents. A bit of help please? Either a site that shows me a build blueprint for dual 15" or a site I could buy dual enclosed box, cheap? regards, timinsk

So I'm chosing to buy a FI BL18. Just two things I would like a bit of help on. First should I buy the FI BL18? I'm wanting a 18" sub, but I don't know how well this runs, I want to know from other peoples experience of how well this subwoofer is. Also i'm aiming for LSQ partly but don't want the rattling and horrible distorted bass sound. My friend is running a 7 year old sub (of course its old so makes up most of the problem) and it sounds pretty bad when he turns it up. I'm going to install this sub into my Chevy Tahoe in back behind the seat. Tell me if I should change anything but i'm deciding to do this. Dual 1 or Dual 2? (Be honest I don't know what the heck which ones better.. and better for my situation.) P Chamfer: Yes Cooling: Yes Flatwind: Yes Daily or SPL: Daily Extreme Lead: Yes Universal: No A bit help please?

ahh ok, well I'll get it, as I'll hopefully talk to the owner of this store tomorrow, and see what its like. Then soon after get it in a few months and tell what i think about it.

Guess it was a stupid questions?...

really? hm, well considerably thisll be my first time having an audio system.. A owner of the store was talking to me on another forum, and he said for me to come down to here some of it. He said he could recommend me a full Powerbass System for 500$ but since I raised it to 750$ I guess I could get a bit more hopefully. :\

ok, thanks.

Anything wrong with Powerbass USA?

hmmm, ok.

Not a great idea, especially for saving money. Do you already have an aftermarket head unit? really, buying from one site is bad?.. thought it be better for compatible or something.. hm, yeah the default 2din head unit, which I'm going to buy probably 1din with a spacer.

I'm changing my budget actually. I'm going to do a down payment for the truck I want so I don't need to worry about saving really, just paying for gas, insurance and monthly fees now. So I'm upping my budget to 750 USD now instead of it beign 500 USD... I was thinking to save me on shipping I'll buy everything from one website as well. I'm back to stage 1 to be exact. I need: Front Speakers (to be crisp and clear, but be enough power for front and back speakers so I can disable back and get a better amp so its less to spend i think) Front Speaker AMP Sub Woofer x2 15" or a x1 18" Sub Woofer AMP Sub Woofer Box Dimensions to work with for the back of the truck: [W: 49.25" |H: 22.5" |L: 36" ]

thank you alot htown! glad i didnt go buy the stuff already. would of been a waste

I did some research and I thought up of a plan. What you think? FS: PHOENIX GOLD 6.5" 240w (79.99) FS AMP: Power Acoustik PS2-420 (54.99) SUB: JBL GTO1502D (79.99 x2) SUB AMP: Legacy: LA1488 - 2 Channel 1600W (109.99) Total: 434.95 (* excluding shipping) Not to bad right?

buy 1 or 2 18" and how much would the sub case be and where do I buy one?

if you could, because I don't know much.. maybe give me the items I need to buy. Tell me what I should get.. :\ I need Front Speakers (that can be loud enough to take over front and my back speakers, im wanting to disable my back speakers so then i can save money with out buying new front and back speakers) Amp for front speakers Amp for sub Sub(s) But like i said before, i need speakers and subs that are good quality for the music I listen to... I like techno so I love the big boom, but sometimes theres songs with A LOT of repetitive roll over of same rhythm thats really fast so I want all the beats to be caught. Then there rock where I like the heavy feel of the bass to get the drums and bass guitar, etc. Then country where I like the voice of the person singing and love to get the feel of clean, crisp sound of them. Then trance where they remade music has some synth in there so I want to hear the bass have wind bellowing sound. I guess.. but I think someone told me I should go for a enclosure setup for some reason.

So would you be able to give me a build?... Thats basically what I'm looking for I guess.. Cheap but good.. though sounds not possible.

Want to fill me in on their setup so I get a rough estimate. I'm probably going to carpet the box.. fuzzy covering anyone?

To be honest thats what the back of the Tahoe resembles is this: http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/userinstall.php?id=47 Doing a setup like that would be awesome, and Idk if I need to bolt the bottom down, if I do then ill do a 2 washers and a rubber(soft) stopper in the middle. Only problem is the amps are under the seats, id put them in the sides as you see in the back, those arm sides.

Sorry I'm truely confused on what you said on the speaker types and everything.

yeah... I might need money right?...

500 USD but if I might I guess 800 USD. I guess its low but I really don't want to spend to much. But if I must, I guess I'll have to. I just want my friends brains to be blown to bits as he listens to this thats all. The good brain blowing, not the kind that makes you just want to puke from the horrible rattling mind blowingness.... but besides that yeah, 500$ I'm hoping to spend, but if the better the quality i need to spend more, i guess I will.

hmmm, I've been getting flamed in many other forums trying to consider a system and I've been trying to learn about systems as well. I came across Fi and found them very interesting. We'll I don't have a current system but am wanting one, and I don't want to slowly go up and keep trying different things, as I feel I'll waste my money and I have a very low chance of selling pre-owned equipment. I'll be buying a 2000-20002 Chevy Tahoe, The front speakers will be 5" while I want a subwoofer as well. I was looking around and deciding what I should go with. Some people recommended I go with a 18" and to be honest I heard my friends sub's which he has 2 10 or 12" enclosed into one box. The subs are about 7 years old I found out and it sounded ok but very loud and it sounds very distorted and I just wanted to turn it off. I don't have a current system but I have a idea of what I want. I basically listen to rock, country, techno, trance. I want a boom and I already considered getting deamplifier's for the doors in the truck, since I know I want a boom or kick to the subs. Like you said before with the 18" being 1000 rms, that is alot and I'm not going into doing competitions but my friend likes to f**k around with others and show off his system. I'm not truly wanting to show off but he does tick me off with his POS system. I don't want to spend much to be honest but I'm wanting to buy 5" front speakers that could do enough to replace the backdoor speakers as well, so pretty much just buying 5" front speakers and disabling the back door speakers then wanting a sub woofer in back of truck. I have quite some space in back to mess around with as well. Dimensions: H: 22.5" | W: 49.25" | L: 36" Thats pretty much just how much space is in the back of the truck. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help me out a bit. I'm still learning by the way. Also I'm looking for sq more, but nothing wrong with being a bit loud. Also I'm planning on buying my own sub woofer box to save me some money.
