*yeabuddy*'s build log....

[porkchop 304]

okay, we need to provide a little bass to go with the fairly nice sounding factory system in the Ford Taurus...

not invassive on the car, leaving as much factory as possible, also not taking alot of trunk space....

nothing fancy, just yet, better to come later down the road....

the car is a 2003 Ford Taurus.

the subs are two 12" Rockford Fosgate rfd212's, (old school punch series)

the sub amp is a Sonus 700.1 , a german made, class D amp....

and some 4 gauge power and ground wire will be ran...

the first enclosure will be a 1.25 cube per sub , sealed prefab...

okay, thats it for now, but, we all know, just adding some bass to your ride can be rewarding enough until funds come together.....

we have a speacial shout out to TheHawk for the amp, thank you very much sir....

the box, subs, and wire came from dear ol' Dad..... i promise i will get you better soon. lol

here are some pics of the great little amp thehawk sent her....

shipped in it's original box...

complet with all packing , manuals, bass knob, and mounting hardware.....

this amp is brand new, no flawes

nice little cooling fan...

gotta have a gut shot! lol

but it is a honor to have you drop in.

My Taurus is planning to have a pair of BluesCarAudio 10s on a Linear Power LP50. Very Simple.

i have been secretly watching your build, attempting to at least learn the terms and approach to sq installs.... primarily just for the exsposure...

when i am talking to someone about sq i often imitate my version of ///M5, lol, you guys humour me with the approach on this, i would assume if it went down in person i would just be like eating nachos ,cocking my head to the side, wondering when the hell we was going to turn the subs up, lol......you sq guys are at a whole other level.... thumbs up to your hard work and exstensive research...

i would like to ultimetly get a nice head unit installed with some media options and ipod features, a little fun for the ride....

upgrade the factory speakers to a nicer after market, with a little power behind them....

and of coarse a better sub stage with a custom box installed.

those BluesCarAudio products seem to be a win!

Any updates on the system?

I double posted this.

[thehawk93 2]

Yea did we get this up and running yet???? I would like to know if that amp is working out....

[porkchop 304]

sorry, yes it is up and running, sounds nice , the amp is golden for sure!

i would like to get her permanent box built soon though......

then she will gain some output.
