Thread: King Kong In The Trunk

  1. #1

    King Kong In The Trunk

    Last year I emailed Magnidat about a problem with my trunk space. I needed something that would hit so hard that my head and back would feel like i was in a car crash! But I still wanted my trunk space at the same time. So he came up with a box with 4 tens (mtx thunder 5500) that would fit on the deck in the trunk. I didn't think it was possible, but here it is!!! (It sticks out 3 to 4 inches more than Magnidat design it too.)

    So, I see you mounted the amps behind the box...

    'Gold' screws look good. I'll post the build pictures Monday.

    This box was built in FL and shipped to Philly. Fit perfect so many miles away.

    I wanna hear it!!!!

    Lemme know how it does.... 1250W should be plenty!!!

    Who's next?!

    Wow, thats beautiful. Now I'm not one for the giant rigs I see on ricers all the time, but that is really tasteful along with maintaining the usability of the huge trunk. How much did that run, and any more details on the equipment / setup.
    I'd definitely desire a similar set up if there's nothing to invasive (drilling holes, etc), though I've blown tires in the middle of no where before and would be resistant to give up my spare, can't limp home on a four speakers

    Does it make all the sound come out the rear end of the trunk????????
    Why that???..It must be an age thing--I am older and the younger must think it is cool--coming out the back.....donno.......but why?????????

    At some point that space will be wished it was available.........oh well........

    isn't the normal radio sound loud enough???...it is when I go by and have my windows down..............oh that must be it.......to be heard when you not even coming up at the light ------that sucks... that normally gets some smoke form the Red Line --Red Line don't go for that crap.....she is quick to smoke after that......thats enough......carry on....

    There's another saying about being old, but I forget.


    I can't hear the noise in your head. Please keep it that way.

    I'm all for good ACCURATE bass. Tight and punchy... not loose and boomy.

    That looks great! Oh...by the way, Bass is omni-directional so the sound will travel in every direction filling the cabin with rich bass. The more drivers(subwoofers) you addactually makes the bass louder with less distortion(within reason) because you reach greater volumes quicker and with less amplifier effort. Any install thats done right can be tuned for the listeners preferences. This sound system...with all its woofers...will outperform ANY factory system and you would never know of its headbanging potential unless you decided to stretch its legs.

    I have two 10in JL subs in my car and at normal listening levels you would be instantly irritated at your factory system, even with your little pioneer "add-on speakers". More is not excess...some could also say that about the thousands we spend to go faster...at least I can listen to my stereo on my 1 hour+ commute every day...the WHOLE TIME...how bout my 300 horses...only once in a while. PEACE!
