I have a Sony with knobs on it. Looks kind of like a stock unit, but does everything the others do, power antenna subs etc. I run 6.5" Kenwood 2 ways in the doors and 6X9" three ways in the rear. No pics of it right now. But the sound is good

mines a TJ but have Kenwood HU, Kicker components, cheap subwoofer (mainly due to the water that usually gets in the jeep), Fosgate 351 mono amp for the sub, and an ADS PQ10 running the comps. the two amps are under the back seat, and the sub is in a crappy homemade box for theft reasons...

I have a JVC deck with cd 2 MTX truck boxes with 10 inch subs, 2.5 inch tweeters and horn mids. The amp is under the back seat with a capacitor. Hides it real good. I can put up some pics tomorrow.

about a little over 1200 watts. im not running the correct gauge wire for the amp, lower gauge, i think i need 4 or 5 gauge so its prob not that much. No crossovers. just straight into the head unit and battery.


what about sound isolation? and capacitor; amp info please

The amp is the p700-1bd. Sound isolation? i just threw the speakers in the back and thats it.
Im at work right now, i cant remember what capacitor but its a 2 farad rated up to 1500 watts i believe. it was 100.

i wish they were w7's, they are w3's. I cant complain tho, this is my 3rd set of subs because they've been stolen twice and insurance paid for all of this, i didnt pay for anything. They are plenty loud though, when my girlfriends hair starts moving around and hits me in the driver seat then its plenty loud :thumbsup:

Sorry bout the mess... it's a PROJECT LOL under the rear seat is where there used to be a control box for and old car phone... and the back panel on the passenger side is wide open... I think that is where Mudderoy mounted his antennae tuner... both are ample size for a decent sized amp

But if I can achieve is model look alike Ill let ya know...
