3 amps with a dual 12 box?? (Pics please)
I'm going to Bi-amp my setup and prep for competition in the spring. I'm wondering where to mount all the amps. I have two mounted in the well under the box, but it's VERY tight and no room to adjust anything. I was thinking of mounting the sub amp under the box, and one amp on each side of the box, behind each rear wheel. -Make sense?
I want to keep this as clean and stealthy as possible. I'm also leaving the battery in the engine compartment as that would be too much weight cantilevered over the rear axle.
Here's what I have now, and it still looks like this. I'm going to replace both amps and add a small 50x2 for the tweeters..
This is what I'm thinking of doing and wondering if anyone else has done anything like this. I have the support of a local Audio shop if I'd need anything else. Not sure if he'll sponsor me, but that's not what I'm looking for.
"Please excuse the crudity of this model, I didn't have time to build it to scale or to paint it." LOL
The red is where I plan to put the amps.

^ I may put the tweeter amp up front somewhere, come to think of it. Just got a rats nest of wiring as it is. Thinking of running a 0 gauge into the cab somewhere, maxi-fuse up front, and run a small branch off of that for my other small stuff like my pass window, WB02 and a couple other things.
