High quality stuff! how much room did you lose in the back seat with the box?

all of it...lol not like it really matters to me since i rarely have passengers. the seat still reclines a little but not as much as i would have liked it to. may rebuild the box so it can recline another inch or so. just havent found the time

...only reason I wish I had a crewmax. But, you said it best... I rarely have people back there either. I've used my 6'7 bed wayyyy more times than I've used parts of my back seat, so I'd be kickin' myself in the ass with a smaller bed and bigger cab right now. Looks loud, though.

2 SA's not loud? Those subs are awesome! Do you know the depth of that box? Or a picture with the back door open with the seat reclined back?

I'd figure the sub-stage should be plenty for our small cabins... I'd figure your problem would be the highs not being loud enough. I'm essentially running PA speakers in mine, and I'm neck and neck with my subs for a perfect blend. Windowns down, my 3 8's put down a 142 on the epic-160 around 35-40hz on music. But, 142 @35hz seems a lot louder than at 45 or 55hz. Speaking of which, what are your box specs and tuning???

Im running pa mids to. All of my non audio friends thinks its too loud but to us audio guys there is no such thing as being too loud and can always be louder haha. As far as my box specs not quite sure. A good friend of mine built it for me since I haven't found the time to do it myself. I think I'll be rebuilding it soon though and shrink the box about 2 inches on height an length do that my seats can recline some more and only use 3 aero ports firing up. Last time I did this style box it got plenty loud with only 3 10s and maybe 1500 watts. Just gotta find the time between work and school to do it though but then that's not a major concern of mine. Next on the todo list is new rims and tires

Nice! If you need a box design or anything let me know. I've been doing this shit forever and have built/designed some crazy setups. What wheels/tires you going with?

haha good to know for future reference. but all of my boxes are the same wedge shaped. only thing different each time is size and number of aero ports haha. as far as wheels and tires im going with BBS 20s for sure and tires im leaning on getting hankook 285/50/20.

Looks good man. I'm planning on moving the system to the bed and doing a blow-thru port so I can make the box bigger and get my rear seats back.

No window motor, it's a DC.
