Default What you guys think?
Been a while since I was on here and my system is different here are some pictures lemme know what you guys think.

Head Unit: Clarion


Speakers: Eclipses


Speakers are for now swapping them out again for Infinitys soon

Subs: Infinity Kappa Series 122.7W


that's the subs in the old box and this is the subs in the new box





In the car


Fiber glassed and Subs raised and the Chevy Logo

plus a Tsunami Capacitor and a Infinity Amp

Going to eventually do an Amp rack to hide the wires and match the box.

why do you need an amp rack to hide the wires? There is carpet right there under the amp. Take a 1" slice wherever there are wires running out of the amp and run the wires under the carpet.

The amp rack is to make everything sit flush with the box and to make it match carpet wise. Just a cleaner look.

I see what your doing now. Looked at the pictures again and I can see that the speaker box is taller than the shelf above the gastank. Are you going to do molded fiberglass for the amp rack also?

I'm debating on if I'm going to do the rack in fiberglass or not but we'll see. I don't really need to amp the speakers because as of right now it's loud and clear at that and I'm trying to not be def by the age of 30

The Infinity's in my back sound great. Never had a problem, or an ounce of distortion. They are the Kappa Perfect series though.

Anyway, the box looks good, definatley cover the rest.

What size amp is that? How many farrads is the cap? You don't really need the cap IMO, but they do look clean.
