Owen Hix Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Well this is my first build log as I am somewhat new to the forum, so here goes- I drive a 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext. cab. Love the truck but not a lot of room, so that means the back seats were coming out. Lets start up front and go from there. Up first we have the big 3 upgrade- Shout out to corona_jeff on hooking me up with this XS D3400 to put under the hood- With all of that done, Let's run some leads to where the back seats were- Now, I had a double din Pioneer in here but i decided to take it out so I had a place for some meters, went with the Kenwood 352U- Meter Time! (This pic is with just the accessory on thats why they are low and the 3rd one is for the amp I didn't have at the time)- Here's the box I built, 3 cubes, tuned @ 28hz, 4" aero port- Lets put those VXI65 Components in the doors quick- Not really an amp rack because it was supposed to raise the box up for an extra batt.. but I didn't end up doing that, and the amp CJ18 hooked me up with. And finally, here it is all mounted together and installed in the truck- She sounds good and I like the way it turned out. I will edit this later when I get a better video of it than just off my phone so you all can see it in action. I am only running this amp at 4 ohms at the time, so i know i am really underpowering these subs. Any feedback is welcome and thanks for taking a look. -Owen Heres a little vid i did today after work. only 2 of the subs are somewhat broke in so I'm hoping it will get a little lower. and like I said above, only running about 750w to them.. gonna be wiring to 1 ohm soon. -05 Chevy Colorado- Kenwood KDC-352U Headunit Skar VXI-65 front component speakers Polk DXi650 rear speakers Alpine MRP-F300 4 chan.

Owen Hix Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 i figured this would come up. since they are the dual 2 ohm coils I either had to run 1 or 4. and right now I don't have the power to back up the 3.5k at 1 ohm. eventually I will probably switch it over once I get my bank back up. haha -05 Chevy Colorado- Kenwood KDC-352U Headunit Skar VXI-65 front component speakers Polk DXi650 rear speakers Alpine MRP-F300 4 chan.

Owen Hix Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 **UPDATE** So i did a rebuild here in the last couple months, I added 2 d3100's and got rid of my vvx 8's for a pair of zvx 12s. Had pictures all ready to go on here but i ran over my phone with the forklift at work and no longer have those.. however tonight i found my flip cam to take a couple video's (sorry for the poor quality): running these at 1 ohm on my dc 3.5k lemme know what you guys think part of the back wall flex sounds bad, but its these little vents with flaps on them from what i can tell so air from the cab comes through them. -05 Chevy Colorado- Kenwood KDC-352U Headunit Skar VXI-65 front component speakers Polk DXi650 rear speakers Alpine MRP-F300 4 chan.
