Who has the new F150 Stealth Box

Who here has the new 2004 JL Audio Stealth Box for the F150 Screw?

What amp are you running it with?

I plan on going with a JL Audio amp but I am not sure which one.
Either the 250/1 The 500/1 or possibly the new e1400D

Any Suggestions. The 500/1 may be a bit big to fit under the front passanger seat though, so I would have to scrap that idea.

If that amp is 500 watts x 1 output, that's a lotta power for a single sub. You'd be better off buying the smaller amp and spending the other money on other components.

Alright!!!! Finally got my stealthbox and Amp. Decided to go with the e1400d. More versile in the future and fits under the passager seat.

So far it sounds good but have not done much fiddling around with the amp gains and xover.



What do you guys set the xover point for a 10" sub?

My rule of thumb is to start around 100hz. It really depends on your "full range" speakers and how low they can go without distorting and whether or not you have them crossed over.

My personal opinion is that around 80hz is good. I find (because of hearing damage due to the "worlds loudest truck") 100hz to be kind of "boomy" and prefer to avoid accentuating that frequency.

Also take into account that the sound will be different whether the windows are rolled up or down.

The best thing you can do is have your friend tweak the settings while you sit in the driver's seat and have the windows at whatever you have them at typically (for me, they would be up).
