No place to mount my amps?

[Chris Denton]

Where is everyone mounting their amps?
There's no freaking room!

Back of the rear seat. Screwed a piece of wood into the metal supports, then amp into wood. Obviously if you have a massive amp this doesnt work.

back of rear seat or onto speaker box.

These are Kicker class A/B, so they need airflow.
I don't want to screw to the box or the car but it's looking like the backseat is my only option.
I would put them under the front seats but there are heating ducts under there.

Aren't AB class amps more efficient than staright class A? ..Figured they ran rather cool-ish...Idk.

I dunno.
I know that class D can be mounted behind panels and carpet.
I could also have my alphabet all screwed up too! Lol!

It's a lot like programming a vcr back in the day! Let me know what NASA says!!

These have to do with the speakers and the sound each speaker is capable of reproducing . Probably hi/low pass/filter. In a nutshell you block hi frequency from going to a subwoofer and block lows from going to tweeters. Professional installers will do it best but you should be able to get in the ballpark.

Research this a ton man, this is the difference between blowing speakers and not. You could write a whole essay on tuning amps.

Best method is to use an oscilloscope.

Need to work on wire management but I got them mounted finally.
I used picture hangers (French cleats) on the back of the box to mount a board to screw my amps to. It's getting there, this is temporary for the weekend.

 

[Chris Denton]

Update. Still working on that wire management. But getting better.
