Just got my door speakers..  These will be going in all four doors to keep the stock look.  I would have to modify to put tweeters in so I just went with co-axil.

I put my SPL port in the box yesterday and hit a 141.7 @ 45Hz sealed on the dash on the TL.  It's only .4 dbs higher than my last set-up.  It sounds way louder than my other system with my other ports so as I go to more comps I will put the other ports in.  

Good shit man. A gain is a gain I bet when you get your x's it will be much louder

Just got my Sundown Audio X-12s.  Here is the install.  I had to put the amp back on the seats because of the vibrations the lows were causing and the mounting holes where just right, I literally had to push the subs to get them into the holes. I just have to clean the car on the inside again.

I'll take another picture after I deep clean everything.  BTW the Xs smash the SAs on the lows.  X is the best sub I have ever heard.  I was so impressed because the only thing I changed was the subs.  Box and amp are the same and its a huge difference!  Moves more air too!

Do the x's have good sq??

  • Author

The xs have great sq. they are very loud on the low end. Ground pounders for sure. I am really thinking of sealing off my trunk again but not too sure. It was a little peaky sealed off.

Oh was it?? I bet with the 20hz port your subs get mean as hell. Do these subs affect the tuning of the box??

  • Author

Not really but they would def sound louder in a bigger enclosure.

i love the look of those X 12's. That surround just looks so nasty.

I would try inverting those and see how it sounds and looks man probly sexy as hell

Don't want to invert them nor do I have the space in the trunk to do so.  They have a mounting depth of close to 10" lol.  They are monsters!

I purchased them from someone who bought them and then decided to upgrade by the time he got them lol.  He didn't even put them on any power or in a box.  No one took the deal so I HAD to.  lol.  Are you coming to the show in October?  They have another USaudio show after that one but it will be on Sunday, 8 Dec.  It's going to be a Toys for Tots show.

Should be sealing my trunk off tomorrow again to see if it will make a difference.  It is getting louder and louder each day because of the "break in."  These are awesome subwoofers.  I have the 28Hz port in and they dominate everything from around the mid 20s to about 38-40Hz.  I haven't sat in too many rear firing trunk set-ups but I def think mine is the loudest I have heard, if not, then def close to the loudest I have ever heard out of a rear firing trunk.  These subs def have me impressed and are def in the ground pounding category.  I was amazed on how different it was just switching from the SAs to the Xs with the same box and amp.  Anyways, enough of my chatting, I should have some pictures up on here soon.

I was going to say PICS and also I can't wait for the show this month to see your numbers

Decided to seal my trunk off again and it sounds a lot better this time.  Used some thick cardboard, some gorilla tape and deadener.  Here are the pics..
