Camaro Subwoofer

NickRutter · 05-30-2018, 08:29 PM

I finally got the subwoofer in. It’s a JL audio 10w6v3. I have to make the paint matched silver neomagnet grills to hide any other imperfections on the front and to make a cleaner, more stylish and intricate design. I have focal k2 door speakers. Next step is to dynamat the whole car. I tried my best to make the sub box fit so it took up no room, But I needed it to be the right size. It just so happened that it is not only the perfect size, but it fits. There are a lot of angles on the box though, helps bring a cabinet builder.

Nice! I'd like to add a sub to mine but can't find the box. I had that same set up in my fifth gen and it gave me just what I wanted in sound for my car. Had a buddy swap out the amp and I had a control on the dash for the bass. Just want a little more thump!

Is that not the JL Stealthbox?

I'm betting he misspelled being as bring, so he built it. Great work.

Mine is very similar, but even less room to work with in the convertible

Definitely not the W6 stealth box, I have one laying around that I haven't installed yet. The speaker is more set to the rear of the vehicle to get 1 cubic ft. of volume. Regardless nice work

I custom made the box

Does anyone know the size of the alternator on a RS? I have two mosconi amps I was going to put in my 2018 Escalade, but I’m not touching the sound system in that for now. It’s Galden Class A mosconi. That amp uses 80A. Then I have a mosconi 1000.1 or something that also uses 80A or something like that. I think I’m gonna have to do a twin alternator setup.

looks nice, I'm sure it sounds great also, I would save the money and effort on the dynamat considering the Camaro is so we'll insulated you can't really hear the exhaust inside. I'm guessing a layer of dynamat wouldn't do much, for the cost and effort .

Great work! Any photos of it not yet installed so we can see all the custom angles and such?

Believe me, You should dynamat wherever possible. I had rattle noise coming from the top of the back window. just stuffed some dynamat in the headliner closest to the back window and problem solved.

I bought a few rolls of dynamat. Just haven’t got around to it yet.
