...and man, I think I'm going to lose my hearing.
Basically I put this:
plus this:
and this:
into my ride today. For those that are curious, it's an Alpine Type-R 12" dual 2-ohm sub (1500 watts max, 500 watts RMS), a Kenwood KAC-7201 amp (800 max, 460 x 1 RMS), and an Alpine CDA-9851 headunit with ipod adaptor.
Good god, that amp absolutely slams the sub. I have to keep the sub on -7 for it to be bearable for long periods of time, and I haven't been able to tolerate any volume past 11 (it goes to 25). The ipod interface is sweet, just plug it in and it transfers all the controls to the headunit, so you can keep the ipod locked away in the glove compartment, or in your trunk.
Install pics will be available later...
