When you've seen a sub drop out of a down firing enclosure, was it due to the MDF failing where the screw went in? Would bolting the subs in (self-locking nuts and washers on the inside to spread the load) solve the issue?

@The Car Stereo Company Thanks for taking the time to give me some advise, very much appreciated. Your speaker selections are way out of my league, but will consider a DSP at a later date if I'm not satisfied with the sound. Leaning towards Polk MM 6502 components for front, DB 652 for rear...

Yes, don't want to spend a ton, but already have all 3 amps. Just need to buy speakers and build a box. (and get the PAC AP4-FD31 interface)

So 120w x 4 will overpower 700W at the sub? That's why I was thinking of bridging the XR-4S amp to send 300W x 2 to the front stage. Use the PDX-5 amp bridged for the rear 150W x 2. 600-700W to the subs from the XR-1S amp.

His thread inspired me to tackle this project! Just trying to figure out if using all 3 of my amps would be worth it.

Would I be better off just getting the Kicker Key 2004 and 5001 amps?

I have a Alpine PDX-5, Kenwood Exelon XR-4S and a Kenwood XR-1S collecting dust in the garage. I was thinking about replacing the B&O in my 2018 SCREW with a better setup. Plans are to build a dual 10" down firing underseat enclosure and run it off the XR-1S. Was wonderimg if I could use the...

Ordered Autotech unit on 17Feb24, arrived today 26FEB24. 9 days from China to Alabama.

My 18 has a panel on front side of the tailgate (bunch of Torq bolts) to access the internal tailgate components. Spray in bedliner will make getting bolts out a PIA due to bedliner in the torq bolt heads.

Had this happen on my 2018 (not power up/down) after washing out the bed and leaving the tailgate down for hours. I guess water accumulated in the tailgate and corroded the latch release actuator. I removed inner access panel of the tailgate, removed actuator, cleaned and lubricated...

That is impressive.

Starlink, bro.

ebay is where I got mine. did the same thing. Swap your electronics module on the new(used) one, as your truck won't recognize to module in the new unit.

Wondering if he's getting a replacement as well? Also would like to know if the display can be dimmed very low for night driving. I like my interior lights at the lowest setting possible when driving at night.
