@Saleem Hodge The amp is a BKA-1000-N and rated at 1100w into 4 ohms. It's only single channel so it's easy to drive both LFE's in series at the same time. A bit overkill if I'm honest!

Thanks for the info I'm looking to have a single amp push 7 transducers.

Rafa, I love your rig

.

I especially like the shifter, did you make it yourself or buy it? Could you take some closer pics of the shifter, so I can see how it's mounted etc?

Thank you very much, I regret not having photos of the assembly steps and materials, try to explain what I did.
The shifter is a Derek Speare http://www.**********************/short-throw-pro-sequential.html
lengthen the lever with a teflon or nylon bar and then replacing the original threaded knob.
suits a forward slash fixed with springs and gain strength pressure and so have a more realistic touch.
with a ring attached to the chassis, so the bar make the journey from front to back.
If not understood, sorry for the translation. attached any photos more detail.

is that even possible saleem?
I thought (using simvibe) you needed two amps
one pushing the 4 transducers in chassis mode
the other pushing the 3 other amps in extension mode
so you need two soundcards as well...

Thank you Rafa, I think I can see what you did and that has given me a possible solution for me and my rig. I can't afford something like a Derek Spears shifter, but I have another option that I wanted to use

I'm not sure either way. I'm still doing my research. But in theory couldn't you get a 7.1 card and a bigger amp?

well, I've done some readingabout it myself
but they always told me different soundcards and amps for chassis and exension mode
if you do find sthing that contradicts this
please let me know!

if I remember correctly it only works with 5.1 soundcards

Wow this going to be more expensive than I thought

lol

very positive feedback from guys which have tested it
ffb for your rig they all say

That's exactly what I want. Chassie mode + one under the seat, one for the brakes, and one more for the stick shift.
