15XXX got stolen, looking for something new

[turblown 10+ year member]

Hey guys, this weekend my 15" XXX and box got stolen //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif *****es didnt take the amp though, dumbasses. Oh well so I'm moving on. Trying to get suggestions on what kind of system to put in now. I was thinking of going smaller, try to get the most out of a 10 or 12 as possible. I currently have a JL 500.1 and a Viper 2500.1 so I don't need to buy another amp, thankfully. What would you guys suggest as a fun toy to play with if I choose smaller? I think it would be fun to try to get louder than 2 12" or something like that with one ya know, efficiency over excess.

Also, I still have a PPI 12" which is decent... I might also look into running that daily and getting an MT 12"and running that for an SPL setup. I remember when me and Marley hooked up his 18 MT... I'm still in love with that sub.

I bet if you would have velcroed that box down it wouldnt have got stolen. I still dont see how someone could have easily tooken out a 15xxx with the box -assuming ported- from you car. That can weigh a lot....

Velcro stopping thieves? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

The only real deterrent to theft is either bolting the box down to the vehicle or making it so **** heavy you need a crane to get it out. In those situations, though, they're likely just to put a knife through the cone for spite.

My box is bolted down with EIGHT 1/4" bolts through the floor //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif.

Also, the amps and sub are screwed in with security torx //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

how about you an invest in some security instead of giving this amazingly strong theif more toys. this guy must be buff to take a 15" xxx and box. i almost ripped my groin apart trying to get mine in my car.

 

[lotas 10+ year member]

haha im the same way...my XXX is in a fiberglass box against the bakc of the seats...screwed into a false floor from the inside...not going anywhere. and If you tried to take the sub out thats just asking for a hernia.

I had deadbolt locks on my car doors and back doors on my 2 door tahoe, only way your opening the door is with a cutting torch or chainsaw.
