Trans am Audio install
I always wanted a powerful system to hit and sound good too. So after my deployment I went on a search and found my dream system. I have now in my car,
2- JL Audio 10w7's
2- Kicker 750.1 Amp
1- Pioneer MVH-P8200BT head unit
1- 3.0 Capacitor
1- Sub Thumb T-Top box (reenforced box)
1- Self made amp rack
4- Alpine Type-R front and rear Speaker.
The way I have it wired and set up. I have pretty much clear and clean sound. I do plan on putting in a another amp to run my highs and mids for the Alpines. I ran all the cords myself and set up everything on my own. It was not easy for me to run a 0 gauge power cord through my fire wall. But I did it and it turned out really good. I was able to run all the cords under the carpet and paneling. The install looks really clean. I took my time and did not rush this at all. So here are a few pictures of the whole thing. There will be more later but I wanted to show it off tonight.

Funny thing you say that! I order one a wile back. It got sent to my house and I had it forwarded to me out in California where I am right now. SOME HOW my package magically vanished when it hit receiving at the military installation. Not saying they took it but yea they took it! Because I tracked it all the way here and asked asked asked! They where like yea we dont scan packages and plus you put the wrong address. If I put the wrong address then how come I get mail and other packages through this one. So I will be ordering another one. It pisses me off but I gave away like 80 bucks to someone I never met.

Looks good, only thing I dont like is the amp rack. I think it looks better mounted flat on that hump instead up at an angle like you have it. And the rattle can paint makes it look cheap imo, Id have it wrapped in carpet or vinyl to match the box. But overall nice setup, i bet it sounds killer.

wow that's really lucky that the subthump is almost the JL 10w7 reccomended size...I love the 10W7, it's my favorite sub, hits so tight and so hard like nothing else i've come across.
Install looks great! really clean, even down to the wires. Nice job man and thank you for your service!
Did you upgrade your battery? If not I'd go with a deep cycle no doubt to support that 1500w RMS of Bass, and a big alternator will reduce your amp's distortion significantly. as far as batteries go I like the Optima Yellow top and Kinetik car audio batteries.
BTW...everything car audio is about to go on clearance to make room for all the new 2012 gear...its a perfect time to pick up a 4ch amp...best buy carries Kicker now and if you can pick up a 4ch that's open box, you can usually bargain with a manager and get the stuff cheap. heres a link to find what best buy has open box or on clearance http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Global/D...at254400050000

You say the subthump box is reinforced, did subthump do that or did you? And what exactly was reinforced? Just curious, ive had 4 different subthump enclosures and have loved all of them.

Im not real sure what the reinforced on it. He said something about putting in extra screws and more sealant. But if you were to write them Im pretty sure they would explain it. But I do love my box! It really holds up on what i want!
