Also what size sub is that?

Thanks

Here's mine...it's actually got a separate slice of carpet to hide the audio system to the prying eye.

I know my Celica has been broken into twice in the past 4 months...so this is a must for me...




Not really for looks...just for sound.

EDIT: Oh..and I really can't claim credit for this one..it was the previous owner's setup...it's only been in the car for two months. I would have done a few things differently, but it's pretty dang nice as it is. The sub box is removable also for a track day (thank god).

ArchangelX, that false floor is great! Does the carpet **** up the sound at all when you have it covering the subs?

these are hooked up to a my 1500w memphis amp.. it gets rather loud, but thats the way i like it


oh and by the way.. i have boston accoustic rallys all the way around. soundwise, i'd put my system up against any other FDs around, i love it .
Any pics of the amp, where is it located?

most people on this board aren't worried about "bumpin" to gangsta rap with their sideways visors and doo-rags rollin' on dubs... thats why stereos are neglected a lot more in these types of cars compared to other types of cars... so have fun weighing down your poor little rx7

'"bumpin" to gangsta rap' is half the fun of driving.. the other half being driving i keep my visor forward and use the doo-rags for wiping my ***.(get it.. 'doo' rags ). Actually in all honesty i do regret weighing down the car sometimes, I can't say i'm a die hard racer though, and i sure as hell don't notice a difference when driving around between a 14.2 and a 14.3 ET.

the amp is located behind the panel behind the seats, on the back of the sub box, i'll get a pic for you guys later.

I know this is a little late..but NO..it sounds fabulous..really can't tell the difference..and so far...I haven't had any problems with people scoping my car out for some theft...

The alarm system must really deter the common street punk in here..and the fact that my car looks stock on the interior is a blessing...uh..in disguise.

I definately believe this one or damonB's to be the best for practicality in trunk space usage.

and now the amps arent "as" good cuz the wife ships them to china, tiawann or whatever to build them?

well just curious.

i had this setup also, JL and HiFonics amp there powerful
amps cuz they can run a 1ohm load and against a JL its freaking nuts. All i had was 1 10W4 (discontinued) and the lowest hifonics 2ch 50x2 and thats exactly what it said on the amp but 100w rms bridged, hitting 156db **** u not. Simplest setup too amp against back seats and just a BANDPASS box, my **** rocked. Ill admit the trunk space worked wonders for the air to travel.

Damn! I'd better get on the ball! I bought one from DamonB about a year ago and I still haven't put it together!

BTW if DamonB ever decides to make another round of speaker boxes, I highly recommend him. He was very prompt in his delivery and there was no false expectations.
