The Family Friendly Rango

Recommended Posts

Let me first start by saying I have mad respect for walls or laying down seats you don't need for more room. But for me I like the challenge of keeping my room, always have. I have a wife and 4 kids that still ride with me in a daily basis. I've always liked it loud but you also got to be able to hear the words clearly. So with this build I wanted to compete, not to win just for fun, and keep all of my seating. I bought an American Bass XFL 15 when I had my van and still had my 12-15 year old Diamond Audio Amps. When I got the Durango I built a sub back port back box and fastened the amps to the back of the seat. It was basic clean looking even though I never finished the amp rack. And my kicks didn't turn out horrible for my first set. But as you can see I was choking out the port and the sub was super close to the hatch. Fast forward after a trip to Slamology in 2019 I got the itch. I completed 1 time. Placed 3rd but only clamped like 500w.  Wasn't good enough...to be continued.

So after the comp I decided to rebuild. I talked to a buddy of mine who is huge into it right now. He said I needed to go sub up and aero port back or side. If I went back I'd still be choking the port out. I also wanted to add a battery. So here's where I had to brain storm. There wasn't anywhere to put a second battery in the back so I decided to notch the box. The issue there was I took some air space away. So I moved my amp location and made the box deeper. This is the final product at this moment. I say that because I'm getting ready to order some Incriminator amps so the rack is gonna change.

Good idea for the battery ! 
keep posting pics. 
I’m happy with my 2 Incriminator amps 20.1 and 3.4. I have them for years now.

Sorry for the long wait between posts. Hope everyone is doing well with the crazy we are going through. I got the box finished and I decided to go Crossfire amps and sub.

Thanks brotha. They are legit. I used to sell them back in the early 2000s. They have come along way and haven't sold out aka sound stream/quart/ppi which all used to be big players in the game. That sound stream human reign is still one of the coolest looking amps I've ever seen.
