In my 02 VX commodore, ive decided to make a sub box to house my 2 JBL 1500watt subs.
Photo050.jpg
The box took me 2 weeks to complete, spending a total of $58 on materials. Including glue, wood and silver sheeting.

The box is sitting at a 45 degree angle to leave the largest possible room in the boot for the wife's shopping.

The silver sheeting was used to match the colour or the car. Whilst the Chevy badges where stuck on as it looked bear.

Another picture of the box.

Powering each sub is a 1300watt amp. I have 2 because they where on ebay for very cheap, 2 is always better than one I gathered.

The final product.

The other 1300watt amp.

And finally my sony explode deck that runs the whole show. What are your thought on my set-up? *addition* I also have 2 pioneer 400watt 6x9's in the parcel shelf. Pictures coming soon.

Nice looking box there mate, is that small red cable coming from underneath the amp the power cable?? (6th pic). If so, man you need to get some proper power cabling.....you went with good subs and a good box, dont skimp on the rest.....buy a decent monoblock to power those subs and get a 4AWG power cable kit. Trust me, it'll sound 10x better ;)

I understand those amps were cheap, but if you keep your eyes out on Ebay you can find a decent 400-600wrms monoblock there for a hundred or two.

So what are the chances that 2 different people would sign up and both make their first post in this thread and they both have basically the same system?
