Finally made a start on my new build this week Will be slow with updates over the next 1-3months, but in the end it should equal to one of the loudest cars in the country Its called mini mayhem due to it sharing the same equipment as this van: http://www.talkaudio.co.uk/ipb/index.php/topic/294453-ascendant-audio-chevy-astro-the-mayhem/ Of course its on a much Smaller Scale, kit list will include: 2 Ascendant Audio Mayhem 18" Woofers 2 Pairs of Ascendant Audio 7" Mid range Speakers (4 in Total) 2 Pairs of Ascendant Audio Tweeters 2 Pairs of Bullet Horn Tweeters Alpine 9886R Imprint Sound processor Audiocontrol Epic 160 Vibe Deltabox Fusion Powerplant 4 Channel amp (4X 220wrms @2ohm) Hifonics Brutus 2607D Bxi amp (will be upgraded to a Hifonics Maxximus ) 210amp alt custom Fitted 4 XS Power D3100 Batteries 80sqft of sound deadening Alot of expanding foam Alot of MDF Alot of Fibreglass Started with a full interior strip except for the roof, once that was done I got my 2 packs of deadening and deadened the full car: Thats it for now, more deadening to do over the weekend Will keep ye posted with updates

Not much of an update really, I recently moved house and I decided to move the Rolla over there, and began the strip down of the current wall so I can measure up and rebuild again Seeing I recently got a new Phone said I would test out the picture quality and also give a run through of my equipment Rolla getting emptied: Some pics of the speakers I used last year and I will be using again: 105 KG of batteries 35KG a piece for those who dont believe lol: Spot the difference in size lol: The all Star line up for 2012: Missing a sub as I am too lazy to take out all 25KG of vertically mounted madness new sub amps have been decided on: B2 Audio M1S 5,000watt Amps (2) Gonna be a small while before I can afford those, all going well I will be hitting the big meet louder than last year I have 2 more days off work so expect some more updates on the car itself

I'm looking to go with a 6th order bandpass for the rebuild in my car, so I'm looking at designs on youtube, this BEAST has caught my eye: Anyone got any sort of info on this??

Sweet looking design!! I might just get you to design a box for my own car

I am looking for as much info as I can before I go to do ANYTHING in my car I do realise that these need to be precise otherwise they will be an EPIC fail. But I want to give it a try. Its good to be different

I wasn't looking for box building off this video lol, I was looking at videos of 6th orders to see what kind of noise they can make!! Does anyone know whereI could find a build log of that said truck in the Video?? Or builds to any 6th orders for that matter?

A little bit windy

Replied Anyone else??

Hi guys, I'm in the process of thinking out my rebuild in my car. Here's the origiinal build thread: So I will be using the same subs, 2 18" Mayhems, I will be adding 2 210 amp alts, and Amp upgrade to give me 6Kw+ I want it to be loud and low, play the 25-40hz bracket sweetly, I dont really care outside that cos I dont ever play up above the 40hz range. all help appreciated guys Joe

SPL Dynamics do 0.5 ohm stable amps. Interesting read all the same, it wouls pose the question as to why manufacturers would bother to make there amps half ohm stable

Welcome along sir, plenty of good info on here

Merry crimbo guys and dolls

One of my very first systems, 2 Kicker CVR 12's off a kicker 400 Watt mono block, 6" comps, 6X9's, and front door comps all ran off a pioneer head unit Then upgraded my car, decided on an audio upgrade, Kicker 600watt amp, and a Kicker L5 12" Then I joined Audio forums and discovered what Audio is about lol. 2 Rockford Fosgate Punch 12's, Starsound 1.3 Kw amp, extra battery and 0 gauge wiring box was 5 cubic feet tuned onto 27hz A small video of them playin: Had a little run around for a while, got me a Kicker 15" L5 for cheap so made 1 3cuft box tuned to 32 and stuck the starsound amp onto it, no pics but here's a small vid: Then I changed car again, and got addicted to bass, so this time arouond same 5cuft box, 2 Vibe Space 12's, Hifonics 2607D, MTX roadthunder componants, Alpine 9886r HU, car deadened with Dynamat. And here's a small flex video of those subs: Then I finally took the plunge and walled the car. Completely deadened, 30mm of MDF on the roof with plenty of foam, sunroof sealed shut, 2 AA Mayhem 18's, 2 Hifonics 2607D's, Epic 160, SPL D 4 Channel amp, 2 sets of AA 7" carbon mids, 2 sets of 1" AA tweeters. This equate to 149.9 @ 32. I am currently rebuilding the box, and changing amps for something a little beefier Of course for batteries I have nothing less than 3 XS Power D3100's Also an Alpine PXE H-650 for telling the front end exactly what to do Here's a video of my wall

Haven't updated on here in quite a while So car is now long rebuilt and hitting 149.9 @30hz, so now its time to rip it all out and build it up AGAIN, gonna have twin 210 amp alts, and also gonna get me some Sundown SAZ 3500D's And finally trim the car up to make it presentable. Will be starting the strip down in Jan, so will keep you guys updated with pics. Was thikning of doing a no wall box, but I think I will stay with a wall, I have a nice bit of space to play with so any ideas I'm more than open to them

Happy birthday my man have a good one

Still need to seal the wall off but a lil vid for you guys Lemme know wat you think??

nice & windy

nice flex dude

Ya man amazing how big a difference it made to the >30hz region!! I am planning a new wall already , but before I go taking anything out I wanna seal it off and shove some proper power on them Mayhems before I change my subs I would love to play 150 on music!! and a burp of 155 would be lovely too

Yup thats the wall, only mods were: 45's on all corners of the box Much bigger port area Those 2 simple change made the world of difference!! I went from 147.xxDB @ 38hz to 149.9DB @ 32hz, my 25hz score has gone up a whopping 5 DB!!! And those scores are with the wall unselaed, will try to seal it this week and re test, as I also got my O scope so I can turn the amps up a bit more now

Obviously alot more work left in this, sealing the cabin for starters But just a small vid of the flex, its currently 150 @32hz driver window open sensor on dash, alot more left in this

Back together now, must seal the wall off tomorrow, then do some testing, safe to say its ALOT windier now And port area is 130sq inches now, tuned onto 30hz, Will make a vid and take some pics tomorrow

Tore the front baffle off to start the work on the inside of the box, thought I would get it finished in one day but thought wrong, VERY wrong lol I've added 45's and some fibreglass, have completely sealed the inside of the box, A nice hand from Am today with my new revised port, cheers for the help chap Should have this back up and running this time tomorrow, and will hopefully crack the magical 150 barrier for the first time More tomorrow, also ordered an O scope so will be able to set the amps up properly and run full power

only about 5 of the pics workin for me

Thanks Am, Will be tearing the front baffle off next week, so I will have the dimensions for you chap
