jmgak47 Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) What I already had collecting dust on a shelf was a Kenwood Excelon KDC-x889 circa 2005 BNIB, had been saving in case I ever wanted to build a system again lol Also have a Sirius tuner I will integrate into the truck using the factory antenna. Door speakers are upgraded already to the JBL GTO's since they are 2 ohm and worked well with the OEM Bose, odds are will be replaced. So what I have ordered so far: PAC OS-2C-BOSE PAC SWI-X And now the good stuff! Diamond Audio D61500.1 And for the subs I just ordered two Diamond Audio D612D4's The box will be a Fox Acoustics dual vented downfire 10 box, that I will cut out to make the 12's fit. The specs on the box are 1.2 ft^3 and tuned to 36 Hz per side. The 12" D6's will do very well in this box!

BLNAWAY Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 What are the bumps on top of the box? Looks like a spot for the magnet to sit? How will that work if you need to use the backseat doesn't look like it won't be able to sit Like it should, or are you taking the back bench out completely? GL with the build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmgak47 Posted December 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 Yep they are to make room for large magnets. According to Joe Fox the builder the back seat will sit just fine. I am sure it will wear the rear sears out where those are but that does not bother me. Thanks man, I am hoping it comes together smoothly. I will be getting a upgraded alternator because I know the factory 105 amp will not cut it. Looking @ a 200 or 220 amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akslowroller Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 I have a friend selling three 200 amp alts. I'm sure he would separate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmgak47 Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 ORLY? How much would he want for one? Are they a good quality unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akslowroller Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I will ask him the specifics tomorrow. And get a price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I got a 309 amp alt. I am definitely interested in that box because I have blown apart one vented and 2 sealed boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldofashow Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I was thinking of you when he said he wanted some amps that alt you got stands out for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 But what is that box made of? Im in need of a strong one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmgak47 Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 MDF sprayed with bed liner. I have ran one if his box's in my Ram I use to have, sounded amazing and was a solid box. Fox Box's are just not as well known in the GM world, he started out building box's for the Ram first and hands down they are the best for them. IMO I am willing to bet he makes the best box's for GM trucks also but hasn't really gotten his name out like he did with Rams. What is your system? I will ask him the specifics tomorrow. And get a price. Thanks man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Does the liner act like glass does on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I would think it would act as a sealant and also it should help with sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmgak47 Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 It better seals the box, reinforces it and makes it next to indestructible. Ever watch the mythbusters on bed liner? Its impressive stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I will have to really check this box out now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Well they use rhino lining for bomb shelters so I would guess it would work in a sub box!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
