Do Work!

I wanna turn my dads old pickup into a spl monster. I figured this was the place to get all the help since everyone here knows so much.

I was thinking about using DC subs. I saw this cool video of a bronco doing hairtricks. They look loud.

I also heard that the level 3s can take 3500 max watts. I think I would use 4 12" level 3s for the low lows and 2 10" level 2s for the upper bass region.

Here's a pic like his truck:

For the box, my friend in russia came up with this. But he didn't get to finish the port part cause he was tired.

What should I tune to? I wanna do hair tricks!

If the box doesn't fit behind the seats, we can cut up the back and use part of the bed. We got a cutting grinder and welder

I was thinking of using 4 of these bad boys: SPL Gorilla 5500watt amps.

Also I read that caps don't do anything, so would like 4 optimas be good?

I already picked up a bunch of sound deadener from Home Depot. I got a ton of this peal n seal. Truck should be pretty quiet.

What's a good place to buy wiring?

Cool idea. You can't put 10's and 12's in the same box however.

Will it sound bad?

Technically, you can. It'll just fuck shit up though

What if I had the 10s in their own sealed enclosure like within the main box? and since it's sealed it would have like a punchier response, which would be good since their 10s and being used for the higher bass?

Thanks

That would work. Putting them in the same box isn't a good idea becasue they act differently and cancel each other.

Oh that makes sense. I can run the level 2s in a sealed box right?

This. Don't put the 10s and 12s on the same channel of an amp.

Sealed or ported. Its just that the 12's and 10's need to be separated.

Alright, I might use one of my old AP amps for them then.
