Wassup everyone. Man they got a forum for everything now, LOL.
I've been an car audio enthusiast since I knew what the stuff was. Got into it when I was about 13-14.
I'm 24, currently serving in the USAF,stationed at Barksdale AFB, LA. I got a Lincoln LS that's about to get a system done (my third) in mid Dec. I've been a JL Audio fan ever since I was turned on to them in the late 90's and I haven't ever looked else where. For me, they are hands down the best.
But notice I said for me. Different people like different flavored food. It's all good. I've never been in the business to talk isht about other peoples stuff, so even though I'm a huge JL fan you'll never have to worry about "If it aint JL it aint crap" quotes from me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
Ingredients going into the LS:
Head unit: Alpine CDE-9881
Full range speakers: JL Audio C5 5x7 Coaxial, front and rear
Full Range Amp: JL 300/4v2
Subwoofer: (1) 13w6v2 in a custom ported enclosure
Sub Amp: JL 500/1v2
The Sub enclosure will have a "wall" as the front panel going across the trunk to really clean up the look. The amps will be laid out conjoined in front of the sub. They will be propped up by a little "ramp" angling them up slightly at the viewer looking into the trunk. Directly above them I'm gonna have a Blue LED shining down on them for night displays.
I will post pictures as soon as it's done, cuz I know that's a party foul on the boards //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.
FYI, my other two systems where (in order that I had them)
1.) 1979 camaro z-28. Had a premier head unit. No amp. JL VR-6x9's in the rear deck, and VR 6.5's custom installed into the doors. It pounded. For a system with no amp running off a head unit, man that thing got loud. And of course sounded insanely clean.
2.) 1993 S-10 blazer. Eclipse deck, (2) 12w3v2 in a ported enclosure, VR 6x9's in the back, 6.5's up front. 500/1 and a 300/4. Entered one SPL competition (my only SPL competition ever) before i unfortunately totaled the vehicle. I took 2nd place in my class with 144.3 db. The first place car ran a 900w amp and 2 15's and beat me by only about .3 of a db. I didn't care. I was stoked that almost double the power and bigger subs barely beat me. The look on people's faces when they saw the lil 'ol 500/1 on two 12's hit that mark was priceless //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
