Ya that Soundrive dust cap is less than desirable , PSI ones look much better

That's what I was thinking.. I feel bad, but PSI was really onto something with their design lol

probably my favorite logo ever

I was able to get them all loaded up today!

The back two were easy since I could just stand on my trailer hitch to load them, but the front two were sooooo close to touching my roof when standing on the box.

Looks like the air bags did their part! It sits almost level with the subs and box in.

Right now I have them on a Nendo 3500 @ 0.5, but only have my 370a alt and no extra battery reserve, so I see 10V pretty quickly lol.

Not very loud, but they move a little bit of air

In the video, there's a lot of rattling, which I found out was from a bunch of screws I had sitting in the rear cup holders, that actually jumped up and out and were all over the cargo area.

The vocals sound quiet because my cheap RCA's shook loose and I didn't have any power to my back door speakers.

After about an hour of demo'ing 30-90 seconds at a time, the 3500 was pretty cool still, but my 1100.4 clearly doesn't like seeing 10v when wired @ 1 ohm per channel, because that thing was hot enough to cook bacon on.

Monday and Tuesday it'll be much warmer, so I plan on doing the seat swap and adding my 80aH lithium, 240aH of AGM, and the Ampere 7500.

I tried to install my new seats today, but it didn't go as expected.

Here was my amp mess before. I didn't want to post this picture because of the horrendous lack of cable management, but people asked if you could fit two 3500s or two 1100.4s under the seats, and this demonstrates that the answer is yes.

When I went to remove the seat bolts, I found that my false floor had covered the bolts...

So we had to make a teeter totter to be able to pull the board out without removing the box

From there, I could get the seats out

However, the new seats I picked up are Suburban seats, which are evidently different than Tahoe ones, and will not fit.

so I'm now searching to find the correct set

Dude if you get bored, would you mind taking some detailed amp guts of the C1100.4?  If not, no worries.  Thanks!

S'all good, I sold my 60/40 bench for $150, and the pair of Suburban bucket seats for $100, so I made out alright lol.

Yeah I've got 4 of the 1100.4s now, they're hands down my favorite amp that I've ever owned.

Yea suburban and XL rear seats don't work in tahoes and short yukons. Should have warned you on that. Sorry lol. 

You wouldn't happen to want to let go of one of those 3500s would you?
