Audison 10's are out...stumbled on a deal for (2) JL Audio TW12's and determined to make them fit. Truck goes for full system tuning Wednesday ,I can do the grunt labor, but will leave it to the pro's and all their fancy equipment to make it sound the best. Researched that the JL's, while they're happy in a sealed enclosure, I feel they need to be ported and JL states they can be...so, started a new little "custom" project this weekend. Ports are short, but I ran them as long as I feel they would work w/o chambering the box. Putting the finishing touches on it today - we shall see...it's just time and a little $$. Better than the $1700 JL dual 12 Stealth enclosure!

If it's not too late, you want to only run one port in this truck, passenger side or out the rear. With ports out each side, you will create a null / standing wave that will reduce the in truck acoustical response. Subs on drivers side, vent out the passenger side... if it's not too late :)

It's too late...

While, not as professional as you guys, it looks and sounds AMAZING! Both TW12's in their own ported box (vented out both sides), wired @ 2.3ohms powered by the lil ole XD600/1. Upholstered in Vivids Carbon Fiber marine vinyl and made carpeted inserts for the ends (and top). Looking forward to getting the entire system tuned tomorrow professionally...but as it stands, I could rock it daily.

I’m running the pac as well on my gen 3. Works great. One thing to note, I thought I would still keep the rear speakers powered of the factory head unit but they don’t play anything now (b&o unleashed). If I want to add them back I’ll have to add the included t harness to the dash and add another amp. I’m currently running the kicker key 200.4 active to front stage. Sounds great.
I just got a 2024 raptor and it has a 14 speaker system and it looks like the pillar tweeters and the overhead tweeters are connected to the back of the main stereo. I’m using one of the PCs as well but I am not really sure how to directly wire my pillar tweeters. I’m going to be using the TOS link into my Audison DSP amp. Appreciate any guidance here on how or where to connect the front pillar tweeter wires to my amp. If I wasn’t using TOS link, I would just direct wire it, but I’m not sure if it’ll work when I have the TOS link added.
