System Pictures, post em up.

I'm trying to gather some ideas for my subwoofers in my Civic Hatch. I have searched, but most of the pictures in the old threads are gone/down. Anyways, post up your systems.

Not a civic but a great idea!

thats cool, but that would suck if you wanted a rear strut

I wanna see some for a crx cause I am gonna have a place build in a fiberglass box and want to see some ideas of people rex's searching cardomaine is to crazy

You could put a strut bar ina rex just fine like that...the hole for it is farther forward than you think..

I think I have decided to do a spare tire enclosure. I will do a small right up just incase anyone else wants to do the same.

oh, i was talking about for that specific car in the pic

Oh yeah...right, I knew that lol...but really, who needs to put a bar on a focus? Or, who the hell needs a focus?!

I've been thinking about getting some system components. I can't decide whether I want to spend more and get Rockford stuff or cheap out a little and get Lanzar again. My old Lanzar stuff lasted over 5 years and was still hitting pretty decent when I sold the amp and subs. I want a 10" sub and a decent 2 channel amp that I can bridge to mono @ 4 ohms. That's it nothing special... maybe run 10 gauge wire like I was doing. It still thumped pretty good and I never turned the amp up more than 1/2 way nor used the bass boost. My biggest problem, besides being a cheapskate, is what I'm going to do for a box. I really want a truck box so I can face the speaker straight up that way I know it won't tip over. But I really don't want to spend $70 just for a box...

I would skimp on the RF's and get some Bostons:

As far as subs go, what are you looking for sound quality or just bass. I have 2 Audiobahn 12"s that are lound and hit hard. Not the greatest sound quality though. Honestly if I was you and wanted a system that would last for a long time and a good investment I would buy a RE XXX 10" maybe even 12". There lower line would even be great for you.

On a budget and looking for some good sounding and quality subs and amp I would go with some Hifonics Zeus subs and a Zeus or Brutus amp. They are good quality and are hard to beat for the price.

See here is the thing. I ditched my system because it slowed me down...haha All I want is a little bass with my music. I'm already hearing impaired and I don't listen to loud obnoxious music anymore.

Also, I think anything for my application over 200 watts rms is simply pointless.

Ok I gotcha now. Nothing booming, just some depth to the music. Man I wish you would have been a few months sooner. I had a old Hammer Pro 12" that I had worked great just didn't need it, would have let you have it for free.

Ok since you don't really want a lot of power I will suggest a Rockford Fosgate 301M amp. Run it with a new JLW1. That is at 4ohm 150w rms.

Now with that you can run it at 2ohm. I have the same amp and love it. Never had any problems and the thing barely gets warm. You run it at 2ohm's your looking at 300w rms.

I would go with the last one ^. Would be perfect for that amp.

I have 2 Xplod 12" subs, they were very cheap, and sound freaking awesome...Overkill in your case but the 10's sound great too...I just had to put em in a vented box to stop them from having a fuzzy hit to them..the sealed box just didnt like them..But still, very cheap and reliable as hell, Ive never had one single ounch of trouble with them, or the 1200w amp, also a sony, also very affordable.

what sounds awesome is my 2 12w6v2 jl audios and zapco amp in my rex...funny when peeps come up with loud blasting music and piss me off so I crank my shit up and there jaws just drop lol

I had one and it pounded the shit out of everything!

GTA - I LOOOOOOVE your box, I'm so jealous. :greddy2:
What rear speakers are you using, and where did you mount them? The only place I see to mount rear speakers is on the rear deck lid area there, and I'd rather not leave anything exposed for thieves to see.

i have a pair of kenwood speakers in the oem mounting bracket so they are visible but since they have all black grills they dont stand out.

lots of money wasted there when you could got my setup and been way better or could got 2 jl 13w7 and would need THAT big of a box...looks clean though i give you that...Why are you selling it?UPGRADING?

What do the OEM rear speaker mounts look like, anyone have pics?

in a crx or hatchie??? I have a pic for a rex of rear speaker mounts but not a hatchie

Hatches. Its what I have... I really need to clean up my stereo setup and reclaim my trunk for groceries and the likes. GTA's setup is so nice. You can use the whole trunk still! Mine takes up the whole trunk for a damn 10" sub and two 6X9s. :(

i thought this was going to be a bunch of pictures. oh well. i had two 12" subs sittin right behind me in my crx. just built a box that went right on top of the storage box and barly fit behind the seats. good luck to anyone trying to steal it. i couldent even get it out half the time.

Mine sat there for awhile, before I finally moved it to the trunk..didn't work out too well, it would slide alot and tilt back and forth..and it made my friggin storage box curve..I still cant get it straight!

Wow, I really don't like the location or positioning of those speaker mounts, that sucks...On the rex the are mounted facing forward, slightly angled toward center, right at the seats and just bhind them...When you look from the hatch area, with the two subs, its a nice semi circle of sound!

here is i pic of my old setup out of the car i will get the rest up later.

Yeah I have that site bookmarked, in case I ever get bored and decide to glass in my subs..havent gotten that bored yet..

Heres mine. 2 MTX 8" Road Thunder II series. They're old but all my friends are really surprised with how deep they play in my cheap box built in less than 20 mins.
