LC2 Audio Control and Memphis Amp with JL audio 8 inch compact enclosure

So I finally made my mind to install an JL Audio 8 inch compact enclosure on a non JBL radio so I tapped on to the 2 front speaker wires to get signal to the LC2 Audio Control unit
This was a pretty basic install and ended placing both the Memphis amp and the LC2 under the drivers seat.check out the pictures and let me know if you have any questions.

 

Here is a picture of the sub enclosure

 

How’s the sound?

 

It’s great man I was actually thinking about adding a,JL audio amp but the Memphis I think is rated at 250 watts and and it’s more than enough it hits some low notes would even think it is a bigger sub than an 8 inch
I replaced the front speakers only with 6x9 and I think it will need some tweeters cause with all the bass I don’t hear enough highs. If you are an average listener I think it’s more than enough

 

Well I have an update my whole set up consisted of 6x9 JBL 3 ways and the JL Audio 8 inch subwoofer
And it was loud enough however once I was raising the volume the 6x9 were suffering from not enough watts and the clarity was suffering
Solution: I asked for for help at Paradyme here in Sacramento and the rep offered me a JL Audio JD 400/4 amp since I have the LC2 Audio Control, this tiny unit has a sub and a main amp output which made the addition/install of the 4 Channel JD 400/4 a breeze!!
Result: a complete new world !! The 6x9 JBLs and the 8 inch JL both have more than enough power I’m barely using 1/10th of turn of the gain controls and the sound is extraordinary +I will add pictures this weekend for you all to see it again this for my 21 access cab Tacoma Non JBL system and please believe me when I say I don’t need anything else I have plenty of punch and clarity and I was able to adjust the amp to maximum volume from the stereo with no distortion so I would highly recommend this set up to anyone trying to upgrade your non JBL system.
This however gave me a nice benchmark for my other Tacoma equipped with the JBL system but I know at least what amp I will be aiming for…
Im thinking a JD 400/4 and a jd 500 or the RD 5 channel amp rated at about 700 watts for the entire system.
Thanks for reading let me know if you have questions
