JL13.5 W7 and JL1000/1v2 || Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.1 / Kicker RS MRP-300 Kenitic 100 fared powercell 0 Gauge amp kit

 

How do you like the 13.5 w7.. I used to have one.

 

I like it very much, 340 on craigslist. Ive had a 15L7 Kicker, 2 12'' Audiobahns so far I'm most pleased with the JL and very pleased with the JL amp 1000/1v2.

 

I thought you weren't supposed to mount amps upside?

 

Ya know, I heard that too, but after looking at the owners manual and calling Stillwater Designs (Kicker), they said it shouldn't make much of a difference

 

What would be the best way to mount it under the rear deck in the factory amp location? Just drill holes and use bolts/nuts to secure it? I figure bolts/nuts would work better than machine screws since it will be upside down. Only problem is it would be a pain to remove the amp since you'd have to pull the rear deck cover to get to the nuts.

 

I just used metal/self taping screws. Cut a piece of masonite to match the size and shape of the amp to cut down on vibration and rattling (if there ended up being any) and screwed her down...or up I did however take the rear deck cover off (not really that hard if you know what you're doing) to run all the wires...and give the inside of the rear window a good cleaning. Looks very clean and haven't had any problems in a little more than a year and a half.

 

Is that Masonite you're referring to sheets of wood?

 

I noticed Rockford Fosgate has a really small amp that should easily be able to fit under the rear deck:

 

there's some about the size of a wallet now too, like 300w RMS or something
