What kind of clearence do you have behind your back seat and the amps? If you sit in the seat, do you fell the amps if you lean back? Looks good !

no you can not feel the amps, but instead of using 2x4 blocks you can use plywood blocks, you just need something to get a small drywall screw through without hitting the metal of the truck.

Did ya' have to post stuff like this!!! Now I have to look at doing something to my stereo!! Ok, so how do I explain it to my wife.

1. The speakers are blown and I need new ones. (lie #1)
2. I read somewhere that it saves gas by equilizing air pressure. (lie #2)
3. The democrats are in control now and I need to turn up the stereo to cancel out all of the voices in my head. ( I wish it were a lie #3)
4. And last, but not least, "It's my money and I can do what ever the @#$! I want to with it woman!" (suicide statement #1. Boy, I could tell you I would be dead in the blink of an eye!!!)

Anyway, where did you get the speakers, and can you give me the spec. on them as far as model #s, and lastly, how does it sound?

Sincerely,

Matt

How about number 5? Go out and buy the equipment without her knowing (if you can hide reciepts) and tell her that you bought them from a guy that you work with for way cheaper than you really paid. Say $100. It was a one time deal, yes or no, right then and there. So you bought them for $100 instead of $500 new in the store thinking she would agree that it was a deal you could not pass up! HAHA. Prob wont work but it should. Women use the mentality that if its on sale for a good price, then you should buy it because they are saving money...... blah blah Know what i mean?

LOL GOOD LUCK!!

it sounds pretty good, i still have to dial it in, not real happy with the sub box but the mids and highs soound pretty decent, the mid/high components are not the best, but in time i will upgrade to a bigger amp and better speaks.

oh before i forget,does anyone else who has this box notice that the bottem of the back seat rests on top of the box and makes a squeak sound when your driving? the box seems a tad tall. its really pissin' me off.
