Fyro Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) So, I've finally reached one of my life goals, which I'm yet to install. That is, owning my very own, quality subwoofer. None of that Supercheap Auto/best buy/kmart car audio shit. I went all out with my first ever install and don't regret a single thing. Here she is: 2 x JL Audio C2 650 speakers. Two front and two rear 6.5" components, 2 rear and two front (like 25mm?) tweeters. JVC KD-R626 Headunit (single-din) w/ 4x50w MOSFET channels, powering the speakers. JL Audio XD 600/1 Monoblock RE Audio SE-X 12" D4 600w RMS sub. Atrend 12 LSV Ported enclosure (2 or 3 cubic feet?) Cadence full wiring kit (8 AWG) A good taste in music. Stock 90a alt, stock battery. Total approx price = $1,380 Total approx value = $1,700 Thanks Audiosavings! I had to snap this one - it's in km too, not miles Edited February 3, 2012 by Fyro Quote 04 Lancer CH ES JVC KD-R626 H/U (2) JL Audio Evolution C2-650 Components RE Audio SEX 12" D4 JL Audio XD 600/1 Monoblock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little skeptical about a prefab, but for now, with a tight budget and minimal knowledge, I'm gonna stick with the easy path until next year maybe. heh. But yeah, deal with a Skar VVX fell through (props to Kevin though for being chill with it) and RE seemed the way to go.

vibrator Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 hey man looks good. just wondering how much and where you got your sub from. realizing how hard it is to get decent usa equipment in au. Quote Henry Ford once received a letter from a depression-era bank robber responsible for the deaths of several law enforcement officers, killed in their attempt to stop him as he fled the crime scene. In his letter, he thanked Mr. Ford for making his Model A Ford such a good getaway car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy crap, I just realised - XXX? How did that beast sound? Its' mounting depth is larger than my sub in diameter! It sounded so beasty and clean. It hit low notes so easily and it was a work of art watching that sub move. Lol. I only tested it for like ten minutes in a sealed box. And then sold it the next day without even thinking :-( Quote New build coming soon.

Cheers man. I posted the sub price in the post above, being $175 AUD with Audiosavings pricetag. And yeah, shipping to AUS is a pain in the bank acc. In total, it was $480 incl SMD Discount for the enclosure, sub and wiring with about $120 shipping, from memory.
