meade916 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 AToday, after building the bus bars for the DGAF Tercel project, i was ready to head home. I grabbed a drink of water and looked to the left at the new RZR i just bought 3 days ago..... and to the right at the new System of the Month prize that just came in (Rockford Fosgate T400.4ad and RFT500.1br). I couldn't help it!! i decided to snatch them up. Don't worry, I already have the exact same stuff on the way and hopefully should be here by Monday Anyway, these things have such a small foot print i couldn't resist just "seeing" where i could put them...well seeing turned into doing.I plan on one set of RF T3's in the kick panels and 2 Rockford P2 10's in a bandpass box aiming forward. I realize it won't slam super hard being outside but it should slam hard enough AND sound good. I plan on making the box somehow part of the back so i still have some sort of bed. Like the box will drop into the bed and still look like there is a bed. I will probably bedline it. Also, before you ask, the placement on the amps that i chose has a chance to be exposed to the elements. I am getting the roof soon, so the sun won't bake on them. I will end up making a cover for days when i have to hose out the inside. I fully understand the amps might get dirt or a little mud on them over the years. Not worried about it. I should have it all playing by tomorrow with the exception of the box being done or the kick pods being built. I will run all the wires and have it all prepped for the box, woofers and mids/highs. More pics to come of course! Here it is so far.the plan: 1 Apple Ipad Mini (future) 1 Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.3 Processor (with bluetooth) 1 Rockford Fosgate T500.1br (powering the subs) 1 Rockford Fosgate T400.4ad (powering mids/tweets) 1 Set Rockford Fosgate T3 Separates (future, subject to change). 2 Rockford Fosgate Punch P2 10" Subwoofers (future, subject to change). SMD D'Amore Engineering RCA Cables SMD TM-1 Temperature Monitor SMD VM-1 Volt Meter SMD OM-1 Output Meter 1 XS Power D925 AGM Battery 2 XS Power D975 AGM Batteries Sky High Fusing Custom Amp Cover with built in fans (future, subject to change) 2 Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

thefourth Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 Hella clean. Those amps are dope too! Great prizes for SOTM! Quote Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do thatI can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream. oh lawd.
meade916 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Report Posted May 11, 2014 there is a nice spot under the passenger seat but i didn't like the thought of the amps down there.....i wanted them up off of the floor because if anything is going to get wet it's that.

hdorre Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 Ohh shit.. I like where this is going Mr. Meade. The fact that you're active processing a setup in an ATV puts a smile to my face. This once again proves that the benefits aren't only apparent in a purely SQ oriented setup Once again, another build ill be following.. 1 Quote On 5/8/2011 at 7:38 PM, Kranny said: On 5/8/2011 at 7:35 PM, 'Maxim' said: It hurts me inside when I read stuff like this and remember you're 15 LMFAO so true Mitsubishi 3000GT (Old Build) Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: (2) McLaren Audio MLT-2 Tweeters & (4) PRV Audio MR Series Neo 6.5" Mids Substage: 4 15" Hybrid Subs - Tantric Motors & Sundown Softies Amps: Banda 2.4D Amp (Tweets), American Bass VFL 350.4 (Mids), and (2) Ampere 3800s Electrical :Singer 260A Alt & JY Power Lithium 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext Cab Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: 4 PRV 700Ti Tweets & 6 10" Delta Mids on 3000wrms Substage: 6 Fi BTL 18s in a 4th Order Walkthrough on 3 Wolfram 4500s Electrical: Singer "390" and JY Power My Official Feedback Thread
Aidan Hansen Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 You know if you're going to go with 1 OM-1 you have to go two of them due to mids and highs needing one with the one for the bass. Quote ^Vehicle log to come soon for this.^

SMZ2 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Posted May 11, 2014 I knew you were going to put something in the RZR just wasn't sure when lol. As always the placement and installation looks super clean. Jeez those amps are tiny.
