All kidding aside this amp rack is awesome, do you have a thread on how you made/bent the plastic?

I'll be posting a build log soon. Still tuning at the moment and busy with travel. I promise I'll have something soon. It was a hell of a project and install, I'll tell you that. But, damn the truck is really starting to sound incredible! The 3 SI MK V 12's hit so hard and tight. The system is very very dynamic. Very happy so far!
Big if still but if i decide to go whole hog im likely to go the DSP Built into an amp with 6-8 channels. I like the idea of less connections /boxes and ditching the passive crossovers at least on the front seprates. If i have to add one addional sub amp so be it.
Been looking at the jl stuff and audio control.

I wish JL had a vx700/7i with 6x50 and 1x400.
50x2 - front tweets
50x2 - front mids
50x2 - rear coax
400x1 - single 10 sub

Channels 1 and 2- Tweeters
Channels 3 and 4- Mid Bass
Channels 5 and 6- Rear Coax
Sub Pre-Out- rca's to your sub amp. The d-6.1200 allows you to tune and control external amps via its pre-out connection.

Go with an AudioControl d-6.1200 and sub amp. 125 watts a channel. It really sound good.

Let me know if you need a quote! As for Audison, I really liked working with the Bit Ten when it came out but have found myself migrating to the JL Audio and Audio Control DSP's lately. I get pretty decent pricing with all of them so let me know what you're interested in.

I have a 2018 with non-Sony navigation. Using ForScan to drop speaker level outputs to line level and remove any eq into a JL VX800/8i for processing and to power active 3 way JL C7 front stage. Three 10W6v3's downfire powered by a HD1200/1. Still need to build the pillars for the three way components.

With 3/4 mdf, which would be the minimum you would need, double wall on the speaker baffle, you have a maximum of 4.25" to work with at the small portion under the seat. You will need to add another 1 1/2" at least for risers so you subs don't bottom out on the carpet. So that 5.75" tall, but now you need to increase the box height to fit the w6. So at a minimum you need increase the box height another 2.75". So we we have 8.5, and after the double speaker wall, let's call it 9". So you are going to lift your seat 4.25" inches? And that's at the low end. In the end, it will be closer to 5". Doesn't seem feasible to me.
