My Old Setup

[DJBERN]

Here are a few vintage pics of my last setup. Since I purchased this car, I have had four different sub setups, 4 different amps, and I think 6 different head units lol until I felt like I got it right.

Pioneer AVH-P6500DVD
Infinity Reference 6500CS Powered by Punch 360a2
Adire Tempest Powered by Punch 500a2
Pioneer Wal-Mart 5x7s in the back doors, powered by the HU. Couldn't hear the speakers in the back doors anyway because of the angles.
I also rebuilt the trunk floor with MDF and built a door for the spare tire, which I never used lol.

My other setups were sony head units. Dumbest idea ever.
Sony 1000wrms mono amp with 2 Punch 15s
JBL 1200.1 with a Kicker 15L7.... which was also a dumb idea because the kicker was 1000wrms and the amp was rated around 1200wrms. no wonderi blew it

I love the way the Tempest Pwns all the other crap subs.

especially since i paid $100 for it, and only put 400wrms on it. other people spend how much for 2k watt subs? lol.

Planning on getting the tempest-X? That's a nice clean setup youg ot there.. perhaps i'll send pics of my ION setup when i eventually clean my car.

thanks, um..... if i get this van, i might invest in a 15" XXX

Isnt' that like an arm and a leg? i'd go with either one or 2 of the maelstrom-x's if that were the case. More surface area, and a lot less money. Actually more volume displacement too. Hmm.. less power as well... haha

those are the RIGHT AMPS!

I have a Fosgate 360a2 powering my single 12 inch JL W0, it pounds nice, but doesnt overpower, love the way it sounds.

yeah the only drawback is the lack of fuses on the amp... and why are the power and ground connections so close? one loose thread on a wire and POOF.

I wish I could find a 400a4 and/or a 800a2/1000a1
