SwantonRX-7

The begining of my project



My deck powered up




My Power Supple I got from a dead computer in my house



All the holes have been made


With everthing in the box

A Side veiw with my amp


A side note if anyone knows how to mod a computer power supple to get more amps of it because I only am running off of 9 amp and when I turn it up the lights on the deck blink with the bass and I think my Pre ampoutput isn't working on it how would I find out???

well they are pioneers

This is what my system was before I installed the deck

cavity

a new computer power supply is under $100, and it'll put out lots more power than an old one. just hook them in paralell

SwantonRX-7

Not really the new one only does 12 amps and mine does 9 thats not much difference

bing

is that supply even big enough???

i am going ot be doing this with a few extra things i have.

i did it before but the power supply went into clip all the time.

what i am doing is taking the subwoofer pre-out on my receiver and splitting it into right / left pre-outs.

running these through a powered PLD-1 line driver and into a huge 2 channel car amp then into a pair of PPI flat piston 10's in individual boxes located at the corners of my room.

i did it with two other subs and it was SICK, at minimum volume.. any more and it cut out.

i ordered a big fat pyramid power supply (i know pyramid..blah, but power is power) so that i can run it at decent volumes. it has adjustable voltage so i can play with that as well..

Get a proper 12v supply, a PC supply won't cut it.

bing

agreed?

but then i dont see any subs there, just a pair of 6 x 9's and 5.25's off a deck... maybe the comp supply will do for that.

Well, my new computer power supply puts out 33amps on the 12volt side..
