Posted October 28, 200816 yr Today while searching for something for a guy on FSC I stumbled across the pics of my very first setup in my truck. Makes you remember that at one time or another we were newbies ourselves...Yep... no carpet in this bad boy (I left the windows down too often at night)Part of my front stage velcroed to the floor. 6x9's baby! don't worry though, I had 4x6's in the dash as well The best part of my first system. I am currently using this in my new truckPop open that glove box and shazzam! ps2 screen bish! mounted on custom angled 2x4's for best viewing angle!Look down... Oh whats that? PS2 at your feetz!Incase you were wondering about the other 6x9... its doing BASS duty on the floor behind the drivers seatSoon afterwards I started searching for "better" 4x6's and 6x9's then I ran into Fullsizechevy.com, found out about component sets and amplifiers. Met Mr. ///M5 and was recommended to check out SSA, and the rest is history...Always remember you started somewhere too When I first got into Audio I thought it was just about being loud, then I joined the darkside (do I dare use the acronym.... SQ)
October 29, 200816 yr hehehehe. 6x9s in boxes, with one doing bass duty! That's funny.But don't worry, my first system was worse. Dangerous, actually. My friend hooked up my system because I didn't know what the f was going on. He ran my power wire through the door jam with a switch on the power wire. Otherwise it'll always stay on, he says. My amp was not bolted down to anything, it was free to roam around in my trunk with every turn. Yeah, all that was bad.

October 30, 200816 yr Author The next step for old blue!Added some carpet and peel n seel on the floor. Also painted up the kicksGot an L7 for free in the box so I figured, why not? *Note - the 6x9 isn't even hooked up and is only used to hold my books I was going to school that summer*Also got this Boss amp for free and really has been a good amp (especially for the price )
October 30, 200816 yr Author I very quickly had to ditch that box for a real boxAll 3/4" MDF, double baffle, braced corners, etc... 3.25Cuft. net tuned to ~36HzI really wish I could had metered it. It was EXTREMELY loud and lots of fun. Really not my style but it was practically free and it was fun showing other high school punks what a real system is aboutDefinitely SQL right?
