Working on new spl car for some fun this weekend

Recommended Posts

Well guys, after getting haggled so bad at the last FX comp, I decided I needed to do something different for this comp.

A 140 is not sufficient for 2 12's and 2 1500D's.

I had 3 issues I needed to fix...

1. I was running a single run of 4 ga for 2 1500D's...Obviously a HUGE bottleneck on the amps. Now have a run of 1/0 per 1500D.

2. I had a prefab box which we tossed in the Cavi trunk to hold us out for the day...chit box, will have a newly designed box for this one, maybe a version of "CRX style".

3. For some reason the final load on the subs last time was 3.5 ohms (dual 2 subs). We didnt have time to check it, so we put it in a let it go. Discovered that one of the subs coil connectors was loose, now have a nice 2.1ohm load betweent the two.

So we have fixed our issues and are not doing the build. Oh, forgot to mention it is going into a new car for this comp. I am not gonna reveal what kind yet, but it should be good.

Anyways, I will post some pics of the old cavi setup for you guys.
