CortezDTV Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 reserved for a few more comming after buffing and assembly of the stereo which will be? help me decide i got some equipment around like a DC 5k and an sd 8k Idea 1 4 8s (dc 8s )in the back deck? Port and subs up built inside car, requires gringing and modifing of the back seat... subs on passenger side, port drivers Idea 2 10's (xls maybe) in a bandpass ported up threw the back deck? Subs would face rear of car towards glass window, port up threw deck so u could possiably see the magnet too I like this one Idea 3 1 12 bandpass? I havea re hc magnet old school, with a dc lvl 5 12" recone, dual 1.4 on the dc 5k... right now it handles my sd 8k at 4 ohms quite well, in a box built for an 18 for my temp setup in my daily 8" tline? Would be sub up port up in back deck, would be light and pretty damn cool 1 lvl 5 15?, heavy but loud I have 15" recones comming but I would entertain using one for this or getting another.... I have no clue how I would fit it in the trunk, facing up port forward... same with the 18 1 lvl 5 18? Idea 4 Wall the backseat? Once again a million options.... only thing a wall would be pretty heavy, but depending I could make a "light" wall Or put my 2 lvl 5 15s in it on my sd 8k, or try to get another 5k and run 2 strapped at 1 ohm....yes I got batts, I would have to get h/o alt or build double or tripplebracket with new motor about 10 cubic fee to play with ish 2 18s? lvl 5s? 2 15s" lvl 5s ? 4 12s? (xls) ?

notorious97200 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 I love those cars ! Lot of work to do on it though. 2 10's or 12's should be enough. Don't go too far on the audio with such a collector / classic car. You could sell your 2 big ampsand get a complete nice system with the cash. Good luck with your build. black BMW X1 2.0 l 192 hp OEM head unit, Amplifiers : Audison AP 8.9 amp with integrated DSP and Ampere Audio 1200. Focal ES 100 K in front doors, and Dayton RS 180 for midbass under the front seats. 2 SSA DEMONS 10" subs, in a 2.6 ft3 ported box. SecondSkin Damplifier on front doors, and Luxury Liner Pro for the cargo area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcpballer64 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Looks great so far man, if i were you i would do more of an sq build with like what was said above and go like 2 10's or 12's lots of deadener, and some real nice mids and highs. What is the powertrain looking like?
