01 Impala, 18" Audio Technix Sub


Recommended Posts

Posted

So here is my latest venture/build into car audio. I really wanted to try my hand at building for an 18" in my car and I was very content with the outcome. Somethings could have been done differently, they can still be done differently but I will keep it the way it is since it is working fine.

Equipment:

1 - 18" Audio Technix Strato D4

1 - Kicker KX120.2 (Hifonics BRZ 1200.1 on the way)

1 - Sony CX-GT55UIW playing music off ipod

2 - Kicker KS650 Coaxials in the doors

2 - VR3 6x9" 3 ways for rear fill

Big 3 done in 1/0 Knu CCA

(+,-) Runs of 2ga. welding cable to sub amp in the trunk

MLA Voltage Boost Module

Here is the car

Idea for a box that I had in mind to build for the 18" sub

sub displacement and bracing were over estimated but as it turns out there is about 7.1-7.2 cubic feet after all displacements

This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned

nice i wish my trunk was tall enough for an 18

Thanks! and what is the tallest your trunk gets? I barely cleared on mine at 18.5" and it's pushed as far forward as it goes. The rear deck has some step downs after that.
