My bug is LOUD!!

R 1000.1 into 2 12's
R 500.4 running 2 6.5 and 2 tweets per channel
M100 running 4 6.5 and 4 tweets a side

34 drivers....

I was worried about power but so far the 2 1000cca batts and 70 amp power supply never drops under 13 volts.
I have some test equip coming from my brother to see where clip is but so far it way too loud to go that far from what my ears say..

the big dissapointment is the ipad and its noise.... I may try a better (newer) head unit that supports more than just audio in.

If any one wants to see what I built I will post a video

people love to give install blogs on here, not sure why. I really don't pay attention to descriptions of what was done too much with out pics just because it normally doesn't paint the correct picture in my mind. I mean really your volkswagon has 24 speakers - well thanks for sharing that and now back to judge judy :)

This is why I was asking if anyone cared to see it, In my younger years I was impressed by anything with a system and now I dont really care about much at all...
I will post a video in a day or so.

asking people if they like pics of your work or just a general description in a car audio forum is a funny question. I don't understand why we seem to need to make a rule that when you are showing off your work you need to include pictures. At this point my rerun judge judy and of dog the bounty hunter are more exciting then your car with 24 drivers in it. Not trying to be rude, please don't misunderstand me but I just don't see why you would not want to include pics if you want to tell us about it. We would love to see your work but honestly if you just want to tell us about it then thanks, I guess...

Not exactly how it is turning out to look but ya people it's happening.

I know it will not be the best or the loudest but what it is , is part of the life! I am a basshead and this car will one day be a story I tell to my wall in an old folks home along with a head full of of others that my wall or maybe someone will listen too.

dude I again must give you some shit to say that it is just such a silly question to ask if we would need pics - hell freakin yea we want pics of that thing its got the start of a sick system in it! what subs you going with and how many. I always thought it was a little different sound in a bug with the bass up front like that.

Build a 44mm MDF wall just behind the seats and put as many woofers in there as you can, or like here four 18W6 JL's... and not to forget; YOU NEED A LOT OF AMPS AND BATTERIES if you really want to play loud. [more than you show so far]
[just a idea for a car like yours]. :wink:
