That's what I'm saying, use that same principle with the box somehow. Screw those L brackets into wood glued to the car in some way instead of through the body.

The plot thickens. I not only blew a speaker I cooked at least one crossover killed a speaker and a tweeter, to the point I get no sound out of them. Blew a speaker . But in the bright side one tweeter is still functioning.
Happily, Crutchfield is sending me another complete components set. Scores!

Well.it happened again! Blew up a crossover and a rear speaker. Talked with a rep.at Crutchfield ,his opinion is the amp is leaking a/c signal into the output. That is whats is blowing the speakers. So all new components are being shipped to replace the old.stuff.
I love Crutchfield. And Im not a shamed.to.say it

I arrived home from work yesterday to find a package on my porch. New speakers , new front components, and a new amp. As the way things go, it turns out the old amp had been discontinued, for some reason . The new one that replaces it in the Sound Ordinance line up was substituted without my knowledge. Im not sure if you can tell but there seems to have been some subtle changes to the unit, see if you can spot them!

Installation took a good chunk of the day, trying to install in between thunder storms, and parts sales. It sounds great. I set it up a bit on the conservative side, Ill probably tweak it a little more later. It is also very apparent that the new unit uses way less power. The old unit would pull the amp meter down to 10 volts at a stop light with the lights on. This one runs just a shade under 13.Last edited by zeeman; September 19th, 2015, 09:39 PM.

I hate to admit it. But I am not perfect. I know, I know... hard to believe, but it is true. You see, my subs have never really hit like I thought they would, when I built the box. I mean there was bass but not the thumping bass I was looking for. So I started looking at it yesterday. I pulled the wires off of one speaker and it was louder.....? It shouldnt get louder with half the speakers.... wtf? So, I reversed the wires on the disconected speaker and bingo! I pulled the speaker out and sure enough I wired it in reverse. This is the system I thought I built over the winter. Only took me all Summer to get it dialed in and tweeked.....
