A long awaited upgrade. Here are some pictures.

I got a kenwood ddx712, i will be installing the navi next week. I got a new sub which is a Kicker L7 15 inch. I was going to reinstall the screen to make it more flush but i like the way it angles, less glare. I want to hear some comments.

 

Looks, sweet. I really like the blue along the bottom

 

thanks. That one of the reasons why i bought it.

 

This is technically an audio post, but as long as it is just showing off and doesn't go technical it can stay.

Head unit looks good, Not very excited about the trunk refrigerator. Also (trying not to turn this into a tech thread) if that box will turn sideways you'll get better sound. You don't have enough room to resonate between the tail of the car and the speaker, need at least 2 feet for the waves to disperse.

/tech over.

 

i didn't want the ported box but thats was all that was left and no i doesn't go side ways. thanks for the inputs sorry about the thread.

 

You should want that box, it's a tuned port box so it'll go 6db higher than any other box (again, I'm inching this more towards a tech thread without trying to).

Problem is, it don't fit. Two 12's would have been a better option since you can maneuver them any way you want. If the box can't resonate, you're defeating the purpose of having it in there. It's just smacking the back wall and shaking the **** out of everything, not really making music since it has no room for the waves to start expanding in the trunk. The front and back wave of the speaker will collide right there before they can start expanding.

<----- owned a chain of car audio stores before 9/11.

 

Nice. But I would miss my trunk space

 

nice screen! looks good

 

What are the dimensions of that Kicker L7 box?

Also OLT do you think its possible to fit 2 12 jlw6s in a sealed box into the sc? Maybe with the woofers facing upward/slanted upward or facing sideways. And possibly with 2 different boxs.

 

I like that touch screen. Not so much the lacking trunk space though, but I'm sure it sounds great.

 

looks good. i like the way the screen tilts too.

 

i would have preferred a sealed box for my trunk it sounds good now, but as OLT says it is true about the spacing. I dont ever use my trunk for anything.

 

thanks for the comment guys

 

i had two L5 12s and this L7 15 hits a lot harder

 

Nice deck

How did you get it to sit flush? I have the same unit and it sticks out (just screwed into the factory mounting holes).
