Oh Mylanta!..... :P

Recommended Posts

Yeah, that was a pretty bad Topic Title. biggrin.png He he. My bad. Any ways, I took advantage of the DSS deal, picking up a few woofers, and man are my arms tired..... Enough with the bad jokes, here are some pics.

I was a little worried about that one box, but everything checked out good.

All lined up and ready for action.

A couple of motor shots. Not my best work, but still and impressive sight. This will be the first time I run four subs in a single setup. Stay tuned for a build log coming to a forum near you.

These subs look great. A+ build quality. All the glue joints look solid with no excess glue. No weak spots were revealed when pushing up from the backside of the surround. These subs pack an impressive stack of spiders extending to the outer most edge of the spider landing. They looked solidly glued, no visual weak points. The neck joint like all other neck joints I've seen in my life was meh. Crap all this blah blah blah, how about some moar fhawking pics?

Ha ha, I dont know about that rowdy part. :D

My dream build from heatwave turned out to be just that, a big dream. :( These bad boys are making their way into another reincarnation of the suburban. New mids, processor, and front stage amps. :) See you all in the lanes.

Opps, forgot, D2. :)

Mine showed up like that too. Luckily it was properly packeged and the driver was in great condition. Can't help what the shipping company does during transit.

I'm gonna have to get them to double box them then if this is an issue. In the future I'm hoping to use injection molded foam supports in the packaging.

Just to let you know, 5 of the 8 boxes that were shipped to me they told me were beyond destroyed.

 

They had to repackage them the best they could.  

 

Someone who works at Fedex seen what was being delivered and requested that they put all the subs on his fedex truck because he's a basshead and knows how many problems people can have with moving stuff like this.

He was explaining this all to me when he got there.

 

So, he got there, told me the whole story, helped me unload em all then stayed and checked em all before leaving.

 

He was there a good 40min.

 

He was also the guy who came back and delivered the last sub that Fedex somehow lost on the way.

Glad eveything checked out good with yours. Its always scary when shipping these heavyweights.

With other subs the top and bottom boards were tied together with 2x2s at all four corners. This would lock the sub inbetwwen the two boards and keep it from tipping over when the box lands on its corner. :)
