Custom Stereo Build

ChaosWarlord26 · #1 06-22-2009, 02:33 PM

As some of you know I haven't posted here in a while but I did Pro Audio back in my day and was able to help several others while here. To the Point I am going to be doing a custom stereo install in the Dodge. It will be designed for SPL contest. I could not think of a better place to post the project than here.

The products I am mainly using are Soundstream for the core build. I am going to replacing the whole entire audio system. It will consist of 3 15's behind the seat, the center seat removed and a center console/amp rack installed in its place. Replacing the doors speakers with 6.5 components.

Now here comes the complete list and pictures of everything I have.

Pioneer DEH-P6000UB

Audiocontrol Four.1

Audiocontrol Epic-150

Audiocontrol 24XS

2 Shuriken SK-BT60 Batteries

3 SoundStream PW-15S Subs

SoundStream PCX-1500D

SoundStream Rubicon 2.250

Power Acoustik PCX-10F

Eclipse 8062 6.5"

Misc Wire and fuse holders...

High Gloss Black Vinyl for the Box.

Have you upgraded you power wiring, not just tto the amp. Use a 4awg or a 1/0 cable from the Alt to the Bat. +, from the Bat - to the body (not a fender), from the Bat - to the Alt motor mount. These 3 upgrades will almost eliminate any need for a cap on smaller systems. I will be doing this to mine as well as running a 10 Farad cap. I know I will be pulling quite a bit of juice.......
