Thumbs up Few pics of my amp install, sub :)

So for a lil bit I have been wanting to add a little bass to my truck.. So I finally did so.. Now I know that this isn't going to win any DC drags, but I like to keep things simple, clean, out of the way.. And none the less I must say that this new kicker cvt does pretty damn good once it is dialed in.. I am in the process now of making a skirt to go from the bottom of the sub box to the floor. so it looks more factory, not just like it was put there.. As far as the amp goes, you can see it is totally invisible when the seat is back in reg position, all the wires have been tucked, zip tied together under the carpet.. It is simple to adjust. You have access to the adjustments from the front of the seat. Amp is a pioneer 800-1 class D, the sub is the new cvt 12 from kicker, final impedance of 2 ohms. Sounds really well, esp for the tiny box it is in.. Matted to the rest of the system, which is infinity kappas in the doors and pillars makes for a great sounding set up.. Is it the loudest, of course not, but does it sound good?? Hell yes.. Thats all..

Thanks fellas. I am thinking I might add a amp to the doors but who knows. For now it sounds great.. Only reason I went with the pioneer amp is it is the biggest, smallest in size, that would actually fit under the pass seat.. Will also have pics up when I get teh skirt done. Also going to add a black sub ring/grille, thats painted gloss black to match the truck...

With out a doubt. It is one of the smallest boxes out. The bottom only measures like 5 in while the top is a little more then 3 in.. Now if your looking for bass to stop you heart, its not going to come from this( due to the box size), but I can tell you what, certain songs you can feel it in your body, with out a doubt rattle the mirrors on the truck.. If you listen to alot of rock, country it is great. Rap, 75% of the stuff sounds good.
