Thread: Elemental Designs Install 2.0

I've decided to change a couple things in my audio system. I sold my Nine.2 and 7kv.2's and replaced them with a Nine.4 to supply 65+ watts RMS to the front edi 6000's and I will bridge the rear channels to supply 150+ watts RMS to a single 9kv.2 in a .32ft^3 sealed enclosure. Of course I will run new speaker wire to the doors and I will also deaden the doors with eDead v1SE².

The System
Headunit: Kenwood Excelon KDC-X590
Speakers: Elemental Designs edi 6000v.2
Subwoofer: Elemental Designs 9kv.2
Amplifier: Elemental Designs Nine.4
Wiring: KnuKonceptz Karma SS 16 Gauge Speaker Wire, Karma SS 4 Channel 4 Meter RCA Cable, KLM Complete 8 Gauge Amp Installation Kit
Sound Deadening: eDead v1SE²

40' of Karma SS 16 Gauge Speaker Wire


Running speaker wire to front door. Talk about a PITA!






Time to seal up the doors. Check out those gaping holes! This is gonna be fun.




Outer door skins with eDead v1SE² applied.








I pieced a template together with poster board and duct tape. LOL


Tracing the template onto 1/4' MDF.

Hehe. I know. I know they're coming. I got sidetracked again today. My girl has her own agenda, ya know?

Pics added. More to come tomorrow.

Looking good... I like the work so far. Looks clean!

I'm getting sick of some of the rattles in my car and I'm highly thinking about doing this as well.

What all are you doing with the e-dead? just the doors or are you doing the whole car?

How Much E-Dead did you order?

Interesting, definitely watching this.

I am only going to do the doors for now. I ordered 40sqft just to be safe. If you guys are interested in the edead products enter the word "forum" in the search area at elementaldesigns.com and it will pull up the forum discount price.

Some more progress...

Panels cut out.

Test fit.


Got some Thompson's water seal to waterproof the panels.


Panels all sealed up.

Slowly but surely.... Got some more stuff done.

1/2" MDF rings sandwiched between two layers of edead.



1/4" MDF panels screwed down to seal up holes. Speakers mounted and wired up.
