Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Celica gonna go BOOM

Well Im finaly gonna get some subs for my car this friday. A customer of mine who has way too much money has 2 JL 12w7's that he had in his Cady EXT for 2 days then decided to put in 4 15's has 2 left and is going to sell them to me for $400 for the pair Now I just have to pick my amp (im thinking of the JL 1000/1 I hope these things bump like they say. Anyone ever hear these in a celica before?

its gonna rattle the shit out of your car...those subs hit so hard...

dynamat will be your new best freind.

That's gonna be sweet dude...Def. use dynamat though


Post pics when it's installed

Yeah, that's a steal. That'll be a killer set up. I'm running 3 10w6v2's and it's ridiculously loud. I have 2 layers of dynamat extreme and it seems like it's not even there. If youre concerned with rattling, definately consider which way you mount the subs. If you aim them straight back, your bumper is gonna take some serious abuse. With that much bass in the trunk, it's gonna rattle. I actually don't play mine as loud as I used to b/c it rattles, but there's nothing more I can do.

Dynamat!!!! I hate cars that had a bumping system but mostly hear the rattling then the music.

I know what you mean,theres a gut that lives down the street from me and he's always pounding his music thinking that it sounds good but all I can hear is rattling. Its sounds so gay

yeah, I know it rattles some so that's why I keep it down. But I still love pulling up next to someone that thinks they have a system, and they look over at me in disgust cause they can't hear theirs anymore

very cool

you're gonna need a lot more than one 1000/1 for two of them.

yeah bro...you may need a 1/1000 amp for each of them...those things are insane!!! I had a buddy with 2 13w7's in the back of a dakota ext cab, and he had to dynamat everything from the floorpan, to the headliner, to the doors, and even had to go thru tons of that sprayable sound deadener in the holes between the back of the cab and the sheetmetal to get the thing to stop the rattle...but he had it setup for sound competition too..with a D class 2000 watt amp going to each of them..even lexaned the back window...they are def. the king of the hill for subs, and $400 is worse than robbery (GOOD DEAL ) just be careful what you wish for

one 1000/1????? you need two bro...there no point in getting nice subs like this and have one amp where you cant let the sub put out its full power

There are somethings that dynamat isnt gonna fix, in your case, the w7s are gonne make every loose piece rattle. It's going to take a lot of work to quiet your car. Also, one 1000/1 is plenty for 2 w7's, just build a good enclosure and it wont matter how much power you have. Plus you could always upgrade...

we can tell you kno SHIT about stereos..plenty? cmon man go do some research before you post stuff like this..u dont kno what ur talking about ...1 1000/1 wont be enough for 2 w7's trust me...

man, that is a sweet deal..


Psquared - did you face your subs a diff direction to keep rattle down?? I have 2 w3v2 and from the way it sounds, no amount of dynamat will stop the rattle.

Ha...

Exactly, There is nooo way one will power them. At the local JL dealer, they had one 12W7 and had one 1000/1 and 500/1 just for one in an integra hatch. You are seriously going to underpower the subs.
