Sub Install!

Just thought I would throw up some pics of my new sub and amp!

Enjoy!

Sub - Rockford Fosgate Punch 10"
Amp - Quantum Audio 800 Watt amp
Scosche Wiring kit and Scosche 500K capacitor







Let me know what you guys think!

Damn man looks very clean, love to box. How much did the whole setup run you if you don't mind me asking. I'm looking into doing something similar to that.

lol nice ground, but if its closer to your amp then your good, but if its closer to your back seats, i believe its better to ground it to the back seat bolts... what specific sub?

i currently have a rockford p1 12" 150watts rms 300 peak
working on installing 2 more subs, 2 rockford 10" p2, audiobahn amp for each, 200watts rms 400peak, that same cap, one for each of the 2 new amps

edit: nvm the first pic didnt load the first time i viewed the thread

The whole setup cost me 400.00 even last year and 80.00 for the wiring kit with the capacitor, without was 30.00 lol

Seriously fix the ground or take down the pic. Why do you have the rca's plugged into the out put of the amp? Did you ground the Amp and the Cap seperately?

I will fix the ground when I have time! It's a two channel amp and I am running it in Mono mode, that is the jack the book said to plug it into, and yes the cap and the amp are grounded seperately.

As for the rattling I don't have it turned up that loud, and nothing rattles for me!

Just to clarify

Very nice. I just bought and 06 SS SC for my son for his 16th Birthday and he wants to add a sub and an amp to drive it. He has the Pioneer system in the car. I took some JL Audio 8" subs I took out of my last Z06. Can we hook them and an amp up to the stock deck and get good sounds? Appreciate the help.
Randy

That you are going to have to research a bit. I haven't been able to find a way to hook them up to the stock amp. I did this in my LS that didn't have the pioneer system. He should have a sub in his if it is the seven speaker pioneer system. PM me and maybe we can figure this out!
