Posted July 8, 200520 yr Finally after months of waiting the warranty on my car is up. its nearly time to get down and dirty so here we go. it's too bad that i have to wait untill i get back from wisconsin to install these. after vacation is country thunder. i really dont know when i will have time soon. but here they are.keep an eye out and you might catch some xx zeus pics later on today. if not, that means that the UPS man was cruel to me and i didn't get it.and that means you all would have to wait a week.al

What are they going in?
July 8, 200520 yr Author They will be in an '04 malibu classic (older body). 4.5 cubes after all displacement tuned to 30 htz. Should be nice.al
July 8, 200520 yr Good choice, I loved my Type R. That female dog took a ton of power, and kept on coming for more.

That female dog took a ton of power, and kept on coming for more.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>And for how cheap you can find them now, chit, you can't go wrong.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Bingo! It was between these and comp vr's in the beginning, but i had a buddy reccomend these to me. he has tested both, obviously not in my car, but he found the type R's to be better in just about every way. I'm not trying to badmouth, i still love kicker.al
July 8, 200520 yr Comp VR's are good drivers. some of the only kicker i would have for daily (but nothing beats internet brand price per perfomrnace). but when a friend had one typeR 12 in his old skool silverado...that one ing 2.2cuft tuned to 35Hz SLAMMED like few other 12's out there in extended cab trucks (horrible for SPL as you all know).even if you seal them you will be happy. im thinking fiberglass enclosure (still portd though) with a silver (to match the cone ) gel coat (instead of chitty paint... ohhh ya baby

I had a pair of comp C12a's. anyways, at 220 USD these things may aswell be internet brand. i especially want to see how they compare to my k's and xxx 18. The type R's will be in 2.25 cuft. each. I'm expecting some slammage. about the enclosure, that will be bare MDF. I have to get some doorpods done before i move on to bigger projects for fiberglass.al
July 8, 200520 yr Author Nice couch.Oh, nice subs too <{POST_SNAPBACK}>You noticed, nothing but La-Z-Boy (sp) in this house. hehe. al
July 8, 200520 yr Author I'm too much of a wimp for internal shots, these will have to do for now.This baby is about 24 inches long with the endcaps on her. 2 ga. power and ground connections. I am in love with this thing.al
July 8, 200520 yr Author Looks like a nice amp Controls on the top make me happy.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Controls on the top make me more than happy. This amp must have been tossed around pretty good by UPS too, the bass knob was CRUSHED under the amplifier, the amp broke through the cardboard to the bass knob and gave a little blemish on an endcap, but i am deffinitely not letting UPS take my amp back for inspection. all i want is a new bass knob, you never know when you might go to a SLAP show and they judge by looks too (duh).al
July 8, 200520 yr Author I can send you a bass knob. I have one from my Brutus Im not using.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>that would be sweet, save me the trouble of dealing with UPS. you have PM sir.al
