My new install :-) Lots of photos

[Mega Heavy Bass 0]

Hello everyone. It`s Marcos from the U.K.

The only person in Europe (as far as I know) who is using the new 15" Magnums.

I hope you guys can see these photos.

Last time I was on here I had difficulty in doing it.

Anyway. Here goes.

Starting out: It looks like a house.

The baffle is in.

And look what`s going in it.

4x 15" Magnums

3x 6" Aeroports.

The box is 20 cu.ft. Tuning it to 27Hz. Is this O.K.?

Please tell me you can see the photos?

[UndercoverPunk 0]

I'd like to see it in vehicle.

[Acidburn 10]

very nice looking construction and oh hell is that going to be loud

[2kchevy 3]

that looks sweet, I bet it'll wang ;P

[bumpncarstereo 0]

nice, what are you gonna power it with

[BASS OUTLAW 0]

lookin nice... i like the ports..

what car u drivin?

[Mega Heavy Bass 0]

Excellent.

From your replies it looks as though you can all see the photos.

So here is the car that it`s going in.

A 1986 Ford Escort.

50 Sheets of Dynamatt

3x Oddessey PC2150 batteries & 1x Redflash 3500

I`m powering the subs with 2x Powerbass XA 3000D

Here is a previous install that I made. Note I do all the work myself.

Warning it contains DD subs!!

The rectangular bit of the new box is what you`ll see when the tail gate is opened.

The 2x Powerbass 3000D are installed on top of that.

A 27" LCD screen will be fitted in front.

Still got loads to do on the box - Bracing - sealing & rounding off - spraying up etc.

Will post more pics when I get some more done.

Oh. Is 20 Cu.Ft. tuned to 27Hz using 3x 6" Aeroports O.K.? I`m after Streetbass.

BTW: I can tune lower - Higher & have the box sealed.

Gotta go - about to watch a film, THE CAVE with my missus

Wow, that looks great! Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Very nice

Four of them ... I can't imagine

[Tirefryr 1,742]

BOOM!

Very nice work indeed.

Sweet. What motor does that "Escort" have in it? Sure looks way better than the ones they sold here! I really wish the cars that were sold in Europe were available here.

That's where all those pretty little woofers have gone, Nick

I did get several people approach me to do a loud car with SI, but I have seen Marcos's work in the flesh and it is simply baaaaaaaadaaaaaaaaaass. It's A1. Well thought out, and well put together. Just look at that DD install.

It's gonna be hella loud.

looks nice!

I need some of those 6" ports

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

WOW!!!

that hurts my ears just looking at it

[ngsm13 1]

That's NUTS! I'd really love to hear it. I think that the 20cubes tuned to 27hz will be PERFECT for street bass...and have great sound quality for ported.

Post pics of it installed when you get it in!

NG

Ah that`s good. 20 Cu.ft @ 27Hz tuning it is then.

Yep The next stage is internal bracing & sealing the box.

The next photos I`ll send will be when it`s all been sprayed up & is in the car.

The car itself started out as a Red 1.3 Escort and is my very 1st car.

It`s had a few engines in since then.

Only a little 1.6 litre XR3 lump - Sports exhaust system - K&N performance filter - engine mods etc.

Still managed 120MPH flat out with previous system installled & passenger.

Don`t know about now though.

The car itself is a 5 Door model with an RS bodykit blended into it.

Not an RS Turbo engine though - The insurance is too much.

The U.K. RS engines are something else. We have modded Escorts that are 300BHP+ and that`s from a 1.6 (Unfortunately it makes things extremely unreliable)

We also have escorts with the American 1.9 engines which have been bored out for even more power.

Although the body is different on our U.K. Escorts.

I`d rather have an American Engine than the one I have at the moment.

BTW: The Escort has stopped being produced & has now been replaced by the FOCUS.

OMG nice work.... 27 hertz is gonna be MEAN

[HeatSeeker 0]

Wow I wish I had enough for 4 15's. Wall in the back of the mustang....yummm....

Wish I woulda grabbed some when they were on that intro deal, now the best I can hope for is some magical group buy that'll never happen, or hope someone answers the phone so drunk he accidentally sends me 4 subs instead of 2. ;[

Can't wait for Marcos to get this all finished, should be excellent

Just wish the SI Mags would fit my install

Bumfluff Bill

I sent you a text last week about you and what the new, mid-line Mags may be abke to do for you...........especially since you have room for 12

Ding me up to let me know what's goin' on

[cougarballa2k5 0]

Is 3 6" aeros enough port area for a system of this magnitude? I'm wavering on the idea of 4 mag 15s also....and if three 6" aeros would work. 8 4"ers should surely do the job?

[UndercoverPunk 0]

I would have alot more that that for 4 15's....

[Mega Heavy Bass 0]

Yes I`m afraid lots more port are would be better.

I`m aiming for 2x 6" flared ports per Sub.

I`ll stick with 3 for the moment.

It`s easy enough to add more Which I`ll eventually do.

Oh the box has changed slighlty.

The ports are now firing towards the front of the car as there was only a 6" gap decreasing to 1.5" gap above the ports when they were firing upwards. DOH!!

Will post a photo soon. The box has been sprayed up now & I`m waiting to get the car down to work so I can fit the box in.

three 6" aeros is not that far off from a more desirable port area. it will be choking the woofers a tad, but air velocity is not increased too much more compared to the suggested two 4" ports per 15". but id also add more ports if i could

works looks awesome man! very nice install

[-SuperiorSounds- 0]

STICK ANOTHER PORT IN!!!!!! DO IT RIGHT 1st TIME!
