Looks mean! Nice job. Is that a textured finish, or is it just the picture?

It looks very nice completed, and your equipment fits nice in the cab also. Are the subs 8 ohm, wired parallel for a 4 ohm load?

Looks good, doesn't rattle your equipment too much does it?

they are duel 4 ohm subs wire in parallel to be a 4 ohm load.. no it is not really textured.. it is a satin finish.. it does not seem to rattle the other amps, it is pretty heavy.. 2 full sheats of 3/4 mdf

here is a link to the subs i used.. i used 2 12" Dcons for this... but i have a 15" Xcon in my truck... it is the best sounding sub i have ever heard.. it gets super loud , but it plays music not just boom boom boom .. i was going to use the Icon but they were out of motors for them.. and the Xcon need to much power 1750 rms ... i have saz 1500d sundown amp pushing the Xcon in my truck.... the Dcon takes 300 per sub .. it has surprized me and is sounding really good for the price.. and i am sure it will get better when it gets broke in.. i am really liking this site... i want to do a center speaker and i want to build a set of the TriTrix speaker kits.. they sure look nice for the price

Looks awesome! And intimidating. Do you have a projector or a tv wall-mounted above it?

Looks cool. Nice job

One of my best friends use to use Sundown amps for his SPL truck. Those amps have a ton of power exspecially for the price.

My wife hurriedly nixed my idea to do something very similar :(

I love this build. Good job, sir.
