I would have gone out and gotten the dimensions altogether on that last post, but it's pouring outside (go figure). I drive a 2012 Nissan Altima Coupe.

I don't remember exactly, but I think it was something around 30" wide, or in that ballpark. Would the subs work just as well fired upwards? It'd probably be possible to remove the spare tire and the encasing it has, and use that little cubbyhole. But I'm not sure how much more space that'd add...

I can make it work either way, whether I have it inside or not, I could just make the box bigger by bringing it out further. My only real concern is the height issue.

Second battery just to help power the whole system, so I know I won't have any problems now or later on if I upgrade. I'm putting it inside the box just to take up a little less space in my already cramped trunk. A friend who's helping me with my install has his the same way and it works well...

I'm looking to install 2 Rockford T2 10" subs in my trunk, and I'm trying to figure out if a ported enclosure for them will even fit. This is my first system, and I am extremely new at this, so bare with me. My trunk, from top to bottom, measures at exactly 12". No more, no less. Given the...

I'm soon going to be installing a system into my 2012 Nissan Altima, and I have a question that might seem kind of dumb, but I'd like to get an answer to none the less. The HU has a short wire coming from the back that has a USB attachment on it, how/where would I place this to have easy...

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_67863_JVC-KW-AV61.html I think this would work. It's also new with not many reviews, but it's alot cheaper so might be worth a try. It says it has preouts for Front, Rear, and Mono-Subwoofer. But that's now concerns me because of the fact that I have 2 subs.

I looked at that one before, the reason I didn't go for it is because it's so new, I couldn't really find many consumer reviews on it, and what I did find was about the Smartphone links, which doesn't apply to my use at all nor was I impressed with.

That's annoying, I was really in love with this HU. Glad I decided to ask before purchasing. Back to the drawing board I guess.

Sony XAV-64BT DVD receiver at Crutchfield.com I need my HU to run to my 4 interior speakers, as well as a sub. I looked at the rear view pic of this HU and noticed under the Preamp Outputs it says 'AUX/ REAR/SUB FRONT' I'm not entirely sure what this means as I'm totally new and trying to learn...

I can understand where you're coming from. I had a long conversation with a co-worker who has installed powerful systems in all of his previous cars (#3 right now), and he has also done installs for friends/family, he basically convinced me that if I can do the work we do (we build wire...

I don't really like the idea of having the shop do it, by I sort of have no choice. I know nothing about wiring up speakers and such and I'd really rather not risk frying anything in the car. Especially since I've fried units in the past and had to pay the shop for a new unit and installation...

I'm trying to put together a system and all that's left is the interior speakers. I drive a 2012 Altima Coupe, there is 6 stock speakers: 2 in the doors, 2 in the dash, 2 in the rear. Due to the fact that I'll have 2 10" subs in the trunk, I think the rear speakers will be pretty much useless...

I figure at this point, whether I need the extra battery or not, upgrading the alternator will only help. So I'll probably upgrade it, install the system, and if I see that I need an extra battery, I'll go through the lengths of installing it. I guess that'll be a 'wait and see' type thing.

I had a post in a different section asking about wiring up my subs (yes, it will be 2 of them) and everyone over there told me to wire them up parallel to be a 1 ohm load and that it'd be cheaper to get a mono channel amp that is stable at 1 ohm. I've found one that outputs about 1,300W RMS at 1...
