Default Pics of my Set-Up

I had this done back in the summer of '02. I have Yellow Optima Battery. I had to replace the OEM alternator last month, finally went out. All the wires, circuit breaker, and the distrubtion block by the sub are Monster Cable. I have a JL bass boost control **** in the Pontiac logo, next to my TCS switch. If you go with the W7 make damn sure you are in the recommended sealed volume range. I had to have a custom box made and like the pictures, it goes in place of the t-top storage area. I put them in the back seats when I take them out. I have not had any problems with any equipment. I personally highly recommended any JL audio equipment.

Deck= '02 model of KDC-X959
Front Panels = JL XR525-CSi
Rear Seat Panels = JL XR650-CXi
Rear Panels = JL XR650-CSi
Subwoofer = 12" JL W7
Amps = JL 300/4 & JL 500/1

I listen to a lot of rock..Crossfade, Godsmack, APC etc. The band that really brings out the quality and sounds absolutely amazing is Dave Matthews Band.

hey how much air space do u think u got in that box? Did u go down into where the plastic holders are? I was thinking of making a box simialr like that but 2 subs, but for the t tops fold back that flap at the top then the t-tops could lay on top of the hump and lay against the flap instead of the back seat.

Very nice system!

I know I love my JL w7! Those things rock!

And If you are willing you can put a w7 in a stealth box.... on the passenger side.. that's how mine is. Custom fiberglass box that takes up the whole side.
