  1. Back to the updates on the build:

     

    Bought a tablet to use as an in-dash audio control but ended up changing my mind and going with a 1st Gen Ipad

  2. Update since last post: Filled in all the spaces and gaps with poly-fill and foam matting, sealed with aluminum tape, finished the support/false floor, started the enclosure, and built an enclosure for my mids and highs. Also got my american bass 350.4 amp which is going to need a hospital visit(in pics).

  3. Update: Got started on the base/Support and am in the process of sound proofing the underside to cut down on as much road noise as i can on a budget. Also got some more goodies in the mail. Still waiting on my American Bass 350.4 however :(

  4. Dont know if i calculated this correctly. Using multiple subs and a bigger enclosure is making everything hard to calculate. This is everything i plugged into the calculater. Trying to stick to around 20 sq inches per Cubic feet so in total i would have 160sq inches for 12 subs in a 9 cubic feet box.

    Port is 28 tall, 6 inches wide, and 35 inches long for a 32 hz tuning. At least that is what the calculator tells me.

    Any input? sound about right?

  5. About to order my mids and highs and am planning on running a 5K High pass filter crossover with them. The website specifies that they can handle 250 watts RMS and are rated at 8ohm. I am planning on getting 4 selenium 8ohm tweeters and running them in parallel to have a final ohm load of 2. My question is, do i only need 1 crossover which would be wired right at the exit of the amplifier channel before it goes into the 4 selenium tweeters or do i need to wire a 5K high pass crossover to EACH tweeter and THEN wire them in parallel?

    Hope that made sense.


  6.  

    Or theres my 2nd design. What do you guys think? Any input?

    I prefer this look.

    Just out of curiosity, why all the 8's? I'm not trying to bag on your setup, just wondering why not use a larger driver and less of them.

     

    dont know how the numbers are going to look with the port covered mostly by the seat but can give it a go if i decide to go this route. As far as why... well i had 6 already so might as well get 6 more. Plus havnt seen a wall done with 8's before. Would be pretty unique and one of a kind. Again, don't know how the numbers will stack up tho...
