    if you like it then forget what they say. if you want more spl try the little things

    whats up with your current box

    what wiring do you have

    get that damplifier pro

    My box at this second is just a bought at store sealed bow but by next friday im going to have my bandpass box made its tuned at 36 im doing it for a school project. It is going to be pretty nice and im going to post a build log once im done with it.

    Wiring is just a scochse 8 ga kit from the front battery to the back my second battery isnt installed yet but after i get my bandpass in im going to do big 3 0 gauge and run 0 gauge to the back.

    Might have to wait on the damplifier pro *pulls pockets out to show lack of moolah*

    He is referring to the wires that are run for your speakers power for you amp...etc. Wire is measured in gauges for example 0 gauge is about .5 inches thick and the higher the number of gauge the smaller the wire is...example 12 gauge is a hell of a lot smaller the 0 gauge. A good website that I have always gone to is www.crutchfield.com there is an option under the car audio section called outfit my car. It will tell you exactly how certain radios will fit in the dash and other stuff like that. In most cases they wil include a perfect trim piece and other useful installation accessories. By no means am I saying buy everything from them but it is a good baseline to judge other options off of.

    Hey I am kinda new in the sense that i have not been exposed to a lot of brands but I do know about a box or too. One thing that i have failed to consider when building a box is not if it it will fit in your trunk but if you can get it into your trunk, in my experience the best thing to do is make a cardboard prototype and try to get it into your car first then go from there. As far as subs and amps are concerned the Alpine Type-R 15" subs are pretty nice and Alpine makes the MRP-M2000 amp to match. Just my suggestions and thoughts.

    If you look at the terminals on your battery you'll see several wires coming out of them...one of them will work its way down to the block of the engine and that is the battery to engine block wire...side note you can get bulk wire on eBay for sure and im sure you could get it locally.

    The learn enough and then talk your parents ear off approach works and i got mine to fund my custom designed box im working on...which will be in the builds section eventually...btw im 17 also but i drive an 88 buick with 41k miles.

    Hey Meade. Starting off i am expanding my system slowly...a year ago started off with my two terlves in the trunk which was working good but then i wanted more...i came up with a crazy design for a sub bow that i am currently build and I know that around tax time im going to be getting two shallow twelves for under the back seat. I asked my g-parents to hook me up with another battery that had more power...the problem is the new one doesnt fit under the hood. I am wanting to tiw the battery under the hood to the new one that will be going into the trunk. I have looked and looked for the proper way to set stuff up and am at a loss. I would like to be able to just run my power wires off of the battery in the trunk. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
