Hey I was just talking to the owner of the shop I worked at for the last 8 years and he was considering taking on DC. We are in Alberta canada, not sure if ur looking for dealers up here but heres his contact info. Audio Dezigns Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada T9H 1Y4 780-715-2266 Owners name is Shawn

Member since October 2006, got hooked in the realm of excursion days Steve, I don't post very much at all but my lurk game hahah. Oh and I'm from Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada

I rarely post here but have been here almost since day one, i think i became a member oct. of 06, but i remember following steve's builds on ROE and hearing he was starting his own forum. although my post count doesnt show it i am on here at least an hour or two everyday lerking. never imagined the forum would end up this big and successful. Congrats Steve!!!!

finally i am a member of the, "I finally have a real Truck" club, i just picked up my dream truck, its a white 2006 yukon denali XL....i will have pics up soon, but the build is going to take a little while but i cant wait....ridin around stock is the shitiest thing ever lol

this site is awsome, i can vouche for it too, here is another likny to register aswell http://swagbucks.com/refer/goopster reason for edit is my link wasnt right lol

yea that was just a rough estimate strait off of kickers specs, there will be much more thought put into the box when it comes time to actually begin the build, which will hopefully begin early to mid october.

ok thanks for the reply, i just have one small delema, the only thing i can fit on my truck is a single 250 amp alt, then if i loose the ac unit i may be able to get another 250 in there and possibly a 3rd one in that location, is there any other way i can do it, or any other places i can put an alt.

thats what i was thinkin, i may just take my AC unit out and make a bracket to hopefully put one there, maybe even two if i can

anybody?

well, currently i have 4 fifteen inch kicker L7's each running off of there own zx1500.1, so each sub is currently seeing roughly 1600-1800 watts.....this is walled of in my ext cab colorado and this setup is no longer cutting it hahaha....now my new idea is 4 eighteen inch kicker solo X's off of 2 of the new kicker 10000watt warhorse amps, and then eventually 4 of these bad boys. my plan is to put a canopy on my truck and cut out the entire back wall of my truck and bring the box basically back to the tailgate. the box will hopefully be between 30 and 40 cubes tuned to the mid 30 hertz range...... now my three biggest questions are: 1)does anybody have any links of pics to a clamshell style build? 2)if i keep my truck running will i be able to run this system with one 250 amp alt, 12 runs of zero gauge pos and neg, and 10-20 kintic hc2400's? 3)anything you guys would change or add or anything of that nature feel free, im a big fan of constructive critisism

thanks guys...already thinking of a new system though.....possibly some sort of clamshell

na wasnt that crazy hard.......jus LOTS and LOTS of money and hardwork lol, and before ppl start hatin....no mommy and daddy didnt pay for n e of it, it all of my work and money, but yea living at home helps, no bills

so i finally managed to hit 150db, well it was actually 150.3...but who's counting lol.....my system consists of 2 sets or kicker rs comp sets, 2 kx 350.4 for the speakers, irragi 200 amp alt, 2 runs of pos and neg 0 gauge wire, 0 gauge big 3, the deck is a kenwood excelon double din....the sub setup is 4 15 inch kicker L7's off of 4 kicker zx1500.1's all walled of in my extended cab colorado... i posted a topic about how i was thinking about getting this setup like a year ago and most people told me that the subs wouldnt take that kind of power, but they are taking it like champs .... i think this is a prety good start for a 17 year old kid hahah, but working at a car audio shop for almost 2 years now has helped me lots........ill get pics of my install and term lab score asap....just really stoked and wanted to know what u guys thought?

yes that is just the short term plan for the mids and highs, a little further down the road like in the summer i plan to buy a kx850.4 and get 4 more sets of rs comps, then i will be happy

the new system is finally in the works, as of nowin my truck i have a kx350.4 powering 2 sets of kicker rs components and a zx1500.1 powering 4 cvr 12's. now the new system will consist of another kx350.4(already have) powering 2 more sets of rs compnents.... 3 more zx1500.1's(4 total) powering 4 15 inch L7's...the amps and subs will be ordered hopfully by the end of the month then a build log will begin, then hopefully not to long after that i will order my batcap 8400 and iraggi 200 amp alt... also i already have tons of fuse holders, 250 amp fuses, ring terminals and about 100 feet of 0 gauge...this will be walled of in an 06 ext cab colorado tuned in the mid 30's...the main goal of this is to be a strate ground pounder...and as for metering, my goal is a 148-151 on music.... what yall think of the system and sumwhat of a reasonable goal right

yea man i cant wait build log to the max on this one lol

my only prob is kinetic = hard to get and expensive where i live in canada, and money is not that huge of an issue if there isnt any left over lol, been savin for a while

thanks for the input fellas

sweet man i am going to order it tommorow, its like 1200 bucks canadian... that means i just need to order my alt and then my eltrical will be done (napoleon dynamite voice) yeesssss

shit man that what i meant i juss got confused cause it will be running at 14 volts so 9600 amps lol so u think it wil do the job?

700-800ish

anybody?

i know there are similar threads but i want a definit answer before i go out and spend alot of money... if i run a 200 amp alt(biggest that will fit and cant do dual)... wit the big 3 in 0 gauge and a red top up front..then 3 runs of pos and 3 runs of neg 0gauge to the back to a batcap 9600(9600 amp batter ) now my question if i do this would it be good enough to run 4 zx1500.1's and 3 zx.350.4's....if it doesnt seem lie enoough give me more options on what i should do besides getting more or bigger alts cause i cant, thanks alot guys

its funny that u posted this because i was just about the post the same thing....a few days ago i was in a big empty parking lot trying to get some flex vids to post up and sumbody called in a complaint... so i was juss bumpin there and all of a sudden this cops come in lights flashin and i like shhhhiiiiitttt.... then to my shock after he talked to me a bit he said that he respects the fact i tried to get away from people before i bump......then he asked if he could get in and have a listen......the look on his face was pricless although he wouldnt let me film him lol... then i explained to him that these are juss lowerin line kicker cvr 12's(4 of them) off of a zx1500.1... i told him about the upgrade i am doing this summer( 4 15inch L7's and 4 zx1500.1's)... he then gave me a card and told me to call him when it was done so he could get a demo... long story shot, lots of smiles and no ticket.. what a cool guy

how about the batcap 8400? i had the batcap 400 in my old setup and loved it so maybe i will do the big one in this setup
