Model of subs, amp rack and box at bottom of post

ok here is were I would like some other people input. My alarm will be linked to my audio system. Speakers will be playing either a high tone or something that will gather peoples attention like my truck saying (rape or hes got a gun etc etc) the subs will be playing a 50hz tone which would make it hard as hell to concentrate.

I am just trying to figure out the best way to hook into the alarm. I think the best way would to have a second headunit in the truck somewhere with my disk that contains the 50hz and the high frequency (have not decided what will hurt the ears the worst) I can put both frequency's on the same track. Do to the fact that after sound processing the subs will only get the 50hz and the mids and highs will only get the high frequency. The CDT 4" comps will be in the rear c-pillar facing toward the front of the cab (purely to fill in the rear with the high frequency and because I have had them laying around.)

I could come off the alarm remote wire or siren wire to the remote going to the second source units 12+ ignition wire. Which will turn everything in my audio system on and at full tilt. The thing is how could I go about getting around a 15 second delay so that it takes the thief by surprise?

I apologize for the drawn out post and my poor grammar and punctuation.

A bit of advice: as cool as your idea sounds, it would be incredibly complicated to implement in practice.

My suggestion is that you get a 2-way paging alarm, make certain that the wiring and hardware is adequately "stealthed", and wire a couple piezo sirens in the inside - they will be far more annoying than your bass at top volume.

If you have 5 DEI 513T placed inside your cab correctly and wired correctly,i don't know how you can sit in there.You may want to look at there placement and try repositioning them.Or did you just get 513T knockoffs? I know they sell em on ebay,but their output is only something like 100db.
