Jagraj7870 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 So i have been interested in car audio ever since i bought my Jeep (2007) i had 2 12 inch p3s which were the loudest in my highschool, ever since this experience i just wanted to get louder and be the loudest in the area. Next i upgraded to 1 18" d2 SMD/AA and powered it using a Rockford Fosgate T40001bd. I had the box built for me, and all i did was put everything together. I was inspired the way Steve did all his wiring job and did a nice clean install in his Tahoe. I also liked the fact that he could seat 5 passengers and still had alot of room for batteries and amplifiers. So pretty much i wanted to do the same. i competed with this system 3 times and won once with a score of 144.6dbs on music (white girl) on a test tone it did 145.6 which i didn't really know too much of, if it was good or bad but i was told that it was a pretty impressive score. Around January, while i was driving 40 kms to Centennial College (I was taking a auto body apprentice course) my whole right side channel speakers popped, my t500.2 amplifier got messed and shit was just horrible. I didn't know what the problem was because i checked all my connections that i had modified and everything was tight and clean. So then one day i went bowling with my cousins and my Jeep broke down on me, it wouldn't start so then i had it towed to my dads autobody shop. i later found out that the positive lead that goes to my fuse box had corroded and was loose. I sanded it down and and cleaned the corrosion off it. It fixed all my problems! I saw that the Kicker warhorse was for sale on audiosavings so i didn't hesitate... i bought it, not knowing that the SMDs have to be Dual 1s in order for me to run it . I decided to just sell my old SMD and start from scratch and go for KICKER everything, no disrespect Rockford Fosgate is a good company but i just prefer KICKER. So for my next build i wanted it to be LOUD and LOW so i decided to go with the SMDs again since they are amazing subs, and tune the box to 30hz since, i wanted to be able to do hairtricks since that would be pretty impressive in the area that i live. (not that many ppl have wicked systems). Also a ground pounder no burp machine! The gear that i needed to buy was: 2 SMD/AA's Dual 1s 1 Kicker Warhorse 3 Kicker IX amplifiers 500.4 4 sets of KS65.2 comps 5 XS Power batteries 4- D3100 and 1 D5100 (i already have one D5100) 3/4 MDF 4 6" Aero Ports 100 ft 2/0 gauge welding wire 2/0 ring terminals black carpet Kicker and Monster RCAs and MOTIVATION Here's my Jeep - 2 SMDs 1 Kicker WarhorseSound System Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/120796-2-18s-in-jeep-wrangler-jk-w-kicker-amplifiers/Air Bag Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/166437-jeep-wrangler-bagdj10k-build/https://www.facebook.com/teammayzn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagraj7870 Posted October 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 I primered it to get rid "bondo bleeding" and because of the roughness Painted the Speaker and tweater grills to match the interior Routing all the wires nice and neatly Need a place to mount the crossover- so I cut on of the belt covers Made a bracket to make it float Connected all the wires Running the wires to one of the amps (500.4) All nicely ran and loomed Side angle of the roof speaker pods Nicely colour matched to the interior trim The crossovers All of my grounds are riveted, way stronger then screwing them Let me know what you guys think! - 2 SMDs 1 Kicker WarhorseSound System Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/120796-2-18s-in-jeep-wrangler-jk-w-kicker-amplifiers/Air Bag Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/166437-jeep-wrangler-bagdj10k-build/https://www.facebook.com/teammayzn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
