Pictures of my new center console setup

Alright guys I totally forgot I hadn't posted pictures of this yet but here they are. Please excuse the truck for being soo dirty. In the box is 2 10 D6's running off of a sundown SAE1200d. I ordered them after a late night and ordered the Dual 2ohm version instead of the dual 4. So I am only running them at about 350 a piece right now at 2 ohms. I am soon to be redoing my whole system and doing a bed cut. I am leaning towards 4 12's. I guess we will see what happens! Here's the pics the box will be for sale soon. No one believes me that they are 10's because of how low they get and how loud they get. The box is tuned to right around 32hz and it gets pretty damn loud. It doesn't get as deep as my 15 did but I do think it is louder for sure!

Front view where the subs sit


Rear seat view and where the port sits. The woofers and port are on the same plane both downfiring.

Nice! But I don't know if you can call it a console. There is no compartments or cup holders, right? It looks like a box, where a console used to be. Other than that, awesome.

We need more information!

Back in the day there was a guy who had 12 12" subwoofers in his slammed chop-top Nissan truck's bed. The truck bed was nothing but subwoofers! Is that what you're going for?

Fit and finish is like 90% of the work here. Back in the day when you had a sedan with a couple subs in it, you could get away without a good looking box. If you plan to put something in the cab, you need to spend a little bit of time determining what the box will look like when it's done.

I'm not necessarily one to talk, but here is the box that I built to replace my center console... it has 3 10" subs in it. Some things I did was use a roundover router bit to recreate the roundover effect on the stock flow-through console, tried to fit the shifter and cupholders like they were in the stock configuration, and tried to start covering it with some high quality vinyl.

Thanks pat! And stealth I am going to be running either 4 10's or 4 12's and lining the bed. I am thinking about just getting two more d6 10's, I love the way they sound. I might even go with 4 DIYMA 12's. I want something that will still sound great but will knock your socks off when I want to. I am going to get another SAE1200 for the two other subs I decide on. Then I am going to be getting another audison(or two) for whatever front stage I decide to run. I think I might run a 3 way active setup in the front and then take my rainbows I have right now and put them in the rear and just fade them for when I have passengers back there. For the new head unit I think I am going to go with the AVN6600 or the Z2. I have never been a pioneer fan though so I'm not sure if I would like it. I am changing up my whole interior as well!

Kuruption what kind of 10s you got in there? It just doesn't seem like it would have enough air space for the subs.
