Well I took a hit.

[pd298]

I ordered the first parts of my stereo system.

I ordered a new Kicker ZXs1500.1, two of the new 2012 alpine type-r's (1000rms capability each), and a fox accoustics dual 12 ported enclosure.

I'll be running off the factory head unit for the time being, but in the future (once my wallet recovers a little bit) i am planning on getting an indash dvd player.

And then maybe new door speakers.

We will see how it sounds!

cool, where'd you get amp? Local?

 

[MADDOG]

That'll thump a bit.

 

[Graygoose]

subs dual 2's correct?

 

[talon6]

1500, man that should hit hard. bought my son the kicker 500 and 2 kicker l7's and it pounds.

 

[pd298]

Yep D2 subs, the zx does 1500@2ohm. (most of the time kicker amps are under rated, it wouldnt suprise me if the amp actually does 1700@2ohm.

I ordered the amp off of ebay.. 507 shipped is what i payed. Seems like a good deal considering msrp is like 800.

 

[pd298]

Whoops. Msrp is 900 on the amp.

When I added just a amp and 2 10s, I never could get it to sound right. I kept thinking something was wired wrong or i had the wrong box. I even tried a bass processor and that made the bass a little better. The bass didn't pound low til I replaced the HU...

 

[EJM05]

The new type Rs are awesome. I just put a single 12 in mine. Hits hard as hell.

 

[DRkNESS]

My Type R is only 8" I'm sorry but I am not half the man you guys are.

 

[swamp_life hemi 05]

Wat is the model number for the new type r 12's???

Sent from my ADR6350

 

[pd298]

SWR-12D2 are the ones that I ordered.

what speaker wires do you plan on hooking the loc up to?

chipmaker, what speaker wires did you hook up to when you had the LOC

given constant voltage, yes, they will exceed ratings.

Nice!

I used the PAC OEM-1 interface. It plugs into the radio, between the radio and the truck. It gives you 2 pairs of adjustable RCA outs. I plugged my amp into the rears set, but I should have tried the front, they may be fuller range. I have this interface and a AudioControl bass restorer, I need to put it up for sale in the for sale section.

 

[pd298]

My zxS amplifier came in today. Man it is small! Probably about half the size of a 1500 watt amp. The birth sheet read 1584 watts too.

I already have all the parts for a system...2 Alpine Tyoe R 12's - My amps....everything....Just don't have a box for under the seats...I could really use some assistance getting directed to an undersea box for my subs
