  1. Cool! Be sure to take pics of the fiberglass work that you do.

    BTW: My recommendations on those amps are the SS and MTX amplifiers.

    In March, you'll have more than enough pictures ... :lol::D

    If I can find a good deal on either of the MTX's, I'd go with one of those.

    Only thing I'm stuck on is ... should I go with 750 @ 4ohm with room to upgrade or 1000 @ 1ohm right off the bat ... I mean, I probably wont be getting another sub for a while - so I think I'll go with just the 1000 @ 1ohm.

    Found out the local marina doesn't sell fiberglass stuff - how retarded is that ?

    Hone Depot - ~$25 / gallon

    Anywhere else - Any cheaper ...

    Any cheaper is good, especially when you need 3-4 gallons EASY.

  2. I was thinking more along the lines of:

    MTX 81000D

    MTX 1501D

    RF 1501bd

    ^Would work good for a pair, if I decided to go with running it at 4ohm for starters.

    Orion XTRPRO 1000

    HiFonics BX1000D

    etc for 1 sub.

    Ah well, whatever I can find at the time I guess.

  3. Thing is, I'd love to get another Magnum sometime.

    So, I could get a 1000 x 1 @ 1ohm now, and get another one later.

    Or look for an amp that does 1700-2000 @ 2ohm and run the single Magnum at 4ohm.

    Probably just go with a HiFonics BX1000D ... does it's job, and it's cheap.

    Right there ... oh yeah.

    Will be running ~ 1000 watts. I'll make the enclosure fairly large - can always take away airspace if need be.

    It'll be sealed this time around (no way I'm going to try and figure out a port), question remains ... how big ?

    - Steve :)


  5. SQ car ... sort of. Imaging isn't that much of a concern. As long as it sounds decent.

    I think I'll make two seperate rings, one for the mid and one for the tweet and go from there.

  6. I was thinking of doing door pods ... but, the window crank gets in the way. Any further back so it won't hit the crank would mean it fires into the seat. I'm thinking of maybe doing the mid in the kick and the tweeter up top somewhere. I dunno, we'll see.

  7. P1000631.JPG

    Drivers side ... enough room for the mid right where the foot rest is, may be enough for the tweet too.

    P1000632.JPG

    Passenger side ... plenty of room for the mid in the area right by that plastic bolt.

    P1000633.JPG

    Paper template baffle in place. Similar to real life size (tweeter would be moved closer to the mid). Drivers side.

    P1000634.JPG

    Drivers side again. Trying to show where the mid could go.

    P1000635.JPG

    Passengers side ... looks like barely enough room if the tweeter was moved up.

    P1000636.JPG

    Closer view of passenger side ... should be ok on this side if I move the tweet closer I guess.

    P1000638.jpeg

    Spring project ... fiberglass box for the (Magnum D2) most likely. Should turn out ok. If it turns out that there is too much airspace I'll add some guts to it to bring it down.

  8. Little help here ...

    If I double click on the Setup.exe in the WinZip window, it tells me:

    "Cannot Install: SETUP or INSTALL program filename contains folder information. Use Actions/CheckOut instead."

    I extracted the file, tried to open it, and it tells me:

    "Set-up is unable to find installation languages in (bunch of crazyness). Error 105".

    EDIT ~ Nevvvvvermind got it to work ;)
