redguitarboy Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I started out back in the day when I started hearing peoples stereos and that made me want one. my first system was two 10" kicker comps and zx300.1 behind the seat in a custom sealed box I made. That was a nice clean system, but I liked being louder better and hittin the lows. I kept trying tons of different stereos and as I learned more and realized that I was spending way much money for little sound. I ended up with a pair of memphis pr 12's that I put in truck boxes. Those boxes ended up not being near enough airspace and didn't sound that great. So I was setting around thinking and researching and found a few blowthrough builds. So I ended up cutting out the cab and built a regular L port box for the memphises. then I needed more power so I grabbed up a memphis pr600.1 monoblock amp for pretty much free. I was satisfied with that system for about a month and then I finally found a pair of type r 12's for a good price. I ran those on the same amp/box combo until I got rid of them. But I still wanted bigger, so I heard my buddy brandon had four 15" cvr's in a wall on two aq1200's. He ended up selling half of it to me so I ended up with an amp and subs withought a box. So I started looking around for the best box for good output on little power. Decided to go with a fourth order So here are my specs on my daily driver: -pioneer deh-4200mp -kicker ks components in the doors -big 3 upgrade - 0 guage ran for amp -aq1200 -two kicker cvr 15s in a fourth order blowthrough box tuned at 48.5 htz It hasn't been metered but id say its in the 143-145 range, pretty good on only 1200 watts if you ask me. I will post pictures of my older builds later -heres some pictures of my build now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoove Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 I like it. Looks like what I am getting ready to do in my truck. Seeing stuff like this make it easier for me to want to cut holes in my truck.
