Speaker box Idea (pic)
« on: September 10, 2002, 11:19:00 PM »
I've been thinking of the idea of a large box to build to hold two 10s, two amps, and possible component speakers in the corners. This way my amps don't mount to the back of the truck, and I can tuck the wire behind the box.



what do you guys think?

Smokin77... If I can fit 12s in a setup like this, I will, just depends on what the mounting depth of the 12s are. What kind are you running?

I have that truck in a game called 4x4 Evolution 2 and I use a freeware program called Zmodeler to make it.

Im running $40, 160max, pioneer 12s, from some floor speakers i have.
They are in my custom box, just untill i can afford infinitys, which i checked and they will fit in my box, which has a depth of... uh 6 3/4'',, i think??
Still paying off may paint job, of which i'll have pictures of soon.

I spent some time measuring some boards to mount my two amps and with two boxs on either side like in my picture above, i didn't have the room I wanted for the amps so i went with one box and the rest of the back a board with my two amps and my crossover. I'll try to get some pictures. I have an Eclipse amp running one Infinity Reference 10". Its plently of bass, alot more than my Rockford Z.

Smokin77 the infinitys you want, are they References or Kappas? I highly recommend the Reference, for the price they are real nice subs, real clean sounding hit different ranges, and they are the loudest subs I've heard for under 100 bucks.

what are the measurements on the speaker box in the photo?I really like the idea!!! :D  I think it looks great. But the only thing is i need to be able to leave my seat all the way back.
