system is getting installed today 8/15/07

I LOVE JL AUDIO!

Awesome stuff you got, I don't think there is a better 500/1 out there and that 13w6 will sounmd so **** good. Is this your first system? If so I can understand not doing the install yourself bc the JL tuning and box can be tricky to set.... But real happy for you and cant wait for PICS!!!!

 
this system is 2 years old lol, i had them make a sealed box so i would still have trunk space, after i post this im gonna go take pics and upload them, i'll have em on here by 8pm eastern time for sure prob sooner

i dont even remember how much i paid for the sub and amp cuz it was so long ago

heres my system history:

first system:

2001 audi a4

2 audiobahn aw1208t

1 audiobahn a2300hct

4 gauge wiring

red top

boston gt40 4 channel amp

pair of boston nx57 (5 1/4) in the front door panels

pair of boston nx67 (6 1/2) in back seat deck

alpine cda-9831 head unit

i have no idea what i paid for that system because it was so long ago

then i sold the audiobahn subs and amp to my friend, they took up too much of my trunk so i needed a smaller system

i then got a 13w1 and a 500/1, i blew the w1 in about 2 weeks? it caught fire, since it was brand new and under warranty i was gonna send it back and get a new one, then i thought about upgrading....

i also have no idea what i paid for this system

they traded me the w1 for the w6 and i paid a little extra i dont remember how much i paid then either lol

i got a 13w6 with a ported box that took up a lil more than half my trunk, i had that for about 2 years

got rid of the audi and stripped it

got my new maxima

i was gonna get a 10w7 and keep the 500/1 because i wanted something that gave me a good amount of boom while taking up least space as possible

but i decided to keep my 13w6 that has treated me o so well

so since i kept the same shit, i wanted it to take up as little as possible and this was only able to be achieved with a sealed box, i lost a lot of spl, it sucks lol but w/e its still way better than stock

anyone that wants to hate on my audiobahns, i hit 142.9 db's which is respectable for my first system

going to take pics now

p.s. i dont really know how much i paid for the stereo really lol

today i paid em 180

that was for them to build me a sealed box

wiring kit

labor

and a bass knob

it shoulda been around 300 something but i traded in my gt40 amp and they gave me 150 off of what i was getting done today for that

 
yeah, but i figure he wasn't going to set it at max... and if everything was tuned properly why would you need the bass knob? to boost a certain frequency when driving into the school's parking lot?

 
i need the bass knob because then i can control the bass directly to the amp instead of it all going through the stock head unit which has a limited when the volumes too loud and cuts it out
