don't get me wrong.. it's nothing like most of the hair tricks on here.... Mind you they are two 8 inch subs.. but playing decaf off of my phone. I cannot make a video while connect.. When my wife gets home next week. (she has my camera) I will take a video for you failed attempt of a hair trick or not. I will try and post a video.

I have 2 sa8V2 running Rockford Fosgate 1000.1 bdcp. running 1 ohm. no issues, and pushes massive air for two 8" subs. ( I say massive, simply because I can do a hair trick with my setup in the trunk of a BMW through a ski port... without the trunk being sealed off.... seems massive to me LOL)

I have two Sundown SA8V2's powered by a Rockford Fosgate t1000.1 bdcp. in a box that I built. Placing them in my wife's Tahoe, I have no regrets at all!!! mind you this is my wife's vehicle so I wasn't trying to replace all the windows in it and put a stripper pole in the middle of the car. But for the price of everything. Sundown, in my opinion, is the way to go. Much cheaper than the JLW7's that I had. and puts out more quality sound than I would have ever thought come from an 8" sub.

well, i made a botched attempt at a box for my car.. but it was a huge flop.. lol i had great luck at boxes in an open cab, but now that i'm trying to build one for my "trunk application" i'm finding it more difficult. a royal Pain in my rear.. of course wife and daughter trying to help me along with the heat and all this great texas weather.... i'm trying to rid myself of any trunk rattle.. and since bmw did such a great job of sealing the trunk i'm trying to aim everything through the ski hole... the box sounds great when at low volumes but when turned up, its like it just cancelled itself out.. so i think i built it wayyyy to big.. lol... i built the box.. 13 x 9 x 36 sub and port right beside each other.. i have a picture but my computer is not working with me either...

I have just recently received my new sa8 v2 but I'm stumped on how to build my box.. I have built t-line boxes before but i'm kinda hurting for space now... I have a bmw 328 i which i'm trying to seal off from the trunk but aim through the ski hole but not make it obviouse if that makes sense... and i have a baby on the way, so i'm wanting to build a box that will out perform anything that i've had but yet still need space for a stroller (groceries i can load in the back seat) lol I usually only deal with JLaudio, i had 2 JLW7 8''s but i had to sell them to pay for a heavy foot. :-/ soooo. after watching tons of video's on the SA's i figured i should venture out and try somthing new. can somebody please help me with a design or help with some suggestions .

Thanx for all the help! it's been greatly appreciated! I've been looking at all the system's on here, and i've never posted anything because i'm no where close to any of the system's on here... and i feel like the new kid in school that nobody talks to lol...

when I had my first system, i had a 68 Chevelle, and had two amps running off of one battery, and everything i turned the car off, the battery would always be dead, so i'd always have to be jumped off.... or downgrade to one amp.... and now that i'm a little smarter about it, i'm trying to keep from having to replace everything atleast once a year... (i've been doing good on these speakers so far... i've had them for two years running ... sounds good in the box i built. seing as it's the first box) how ofter would you have to charge the 2nd battery? and would it be good to run anything other than the amp off the 2nd battery?

Everything is stock even the battery, i have 4 guage wire running my amp. every time the radio goes above half way with the subs on everything is surging for power. i have a volt meter on my radio (pione AVDIC-3) and it say's i'm running 14.5 volts "silent" and 11.5 volts pushing half way up. i double checked with a meter and it goes down to 12.7 from 14.5 and i'm just trying to find out some way to keep from killing my lights, ( i have HID head lights and anything under 13 volts they start to blink.... and it makes me mad... but i did find somthing that may possibly work through missinglinkaudio. but i haven't seen any reviews about it, and i don't want to replace all my electrical because it's hard to find ANY on this stupid vehicle.....

I haven't had any luck finding any aftermarket parts for my vehicle (2007 Jeep Compass) I was just trying to figure out how many batteries you can put on a stock alternator before it starts decreacing the life of the alternator.... at the moment i have a Memphis 1,000 watt amp, with two JLW7's (hopefully soon will upgrade to FI subs, want to figure power issues out first)
