BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 This is our FAMILY station wagon that just happens to have over 300 horses haha Nothing crazy since its for Mama and the Kidz System consists of a the Stock Boston Acoustics sound system with factory speakers all around. I like the way it sounded for stock it was decent. Just needed to brighten it up a bit so I added a Rockford P400-4 and some Diamond D6 tweeters. Sub Stage - JL Audio 500/1v1 and a RE SE10 in an MTX Thunder form 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I started off with this setup but the cap eventually crapped out. It was over 10 years old. I tapped in to the rear full range signal to the rear speakers with the Cache LOC this gave me the RCA output I needed for the P325.1 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Picked up the thunderform and did a sub swap to the RE SE 10 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Fat ass magnet on the RE wouldn't fit so I had to create a spacer ghetto rig stylee Sanded and color matched to the enclosure Much better fit and the motor can breathe though its still choking haha 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Got rid of the CCA and swapped to 4GA OFC In goes the P400-4 I really liked having 2 Rockford amps but the P325.1 just was not enough for a single RE SE 10 sealed. I used the Pass-Thru on the P325.1 to send a full range signal to the P400-4 so I could run some tweeters up front to brighten up the front soundstage. Worked out nicely. 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I did not want to cut anything up so I did a surface mount. They were super bright at first did some taming with the EQ and gain and they blend nicely. 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Took out the LOC and the Cap and tapped in to fuse #18 in the trunk to turn both amps on. The JL 500/1 remote in should turn in to a remote out to turn on another amp using signal sense but it did not work for me. This was the solution to turn them both on. Now I just use the high level input on the JL to pass though the full range signal to the Rockford Punch and leaves me with lots of room to grow. Right now the Rockford is only running the pair of tweeters haha That's it for now... 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoomZoom808 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Thanks and I tried it that way but the motor was so heavy it pulled the thunder form down the supplied brackets couldn't support the weight. Also blocked access to the spare and I needs the room to fit a double stroller and groceries. Ahhhh I know lame but fam first haha. 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
