Build Logs

I'm in the process of completely changing the crx's build so I decided to start a new build log. The old one can be found here: http://www.soundsolu...1-honda-crx-si/ The last thing I did in the build was add the new second amp rack with the LEDs under both amps (which I have yet to get a decent photo of, Sefugi). From there I was just so used to everything and was starting to compete in some comps and with a local in town. First thing that needed to be done was a new front stage, again. Pre ordered the Sundown Audio Neo Pro 6.5" mids with some infinity tweets. Found a great deal on an Alpine 9887 and grabbed that up quick. Before: After: Before: After:

alright finally got some pics and a vid of my car... i know the cars dirty lol i just installed the alternator so i havent had time to clean the grease off yet interior. engine pics from when my bumpers were black... engine still looks the same today. so ya i ordered a fully loaded fi btl 18" i ordered another sub exactly the same from Fi ... and got this... the whole sub was pretty much different...i know they look alike but the cone was a different texture and so was the rubber surround...

So i just started my build this weekend(tue-wed)for me. The build is simple, not to much to it. 2 Sundown Audio SA-8's Dual 4 ohm 1 hifonics brutus 1200.1 1 xs power d1200 batt. That's all the new stuff i am getting. I already have 1 d1200 under the hood and a 300amp custom built alt. This is going to go with my 2 sets of massive audio rk6 component's and my massive audio 4 channel with a pioneer touch screen dvd3100.

Car is a '94 Buick Roadmaster. Purchased it about 2 years ago. Spent the 1st summer deadening the car, and last summer I just didn't have much time to get things done. Goal is to have a stereo finally installed in it this year! Have a little road trip coming up on June 22nd, and I would really like to at least have it playing music before then. Between work, the gym and my kids' evening activities I don't have much free time so that is quite a challenge. Not starting from scratch here. But hoping a little log will keep me on track and responsible for getting shit done. To get things up to speed...the car is deadened front to rear with SDS sound deadening. I bel…

Ok, so Im sorta new to SSA and Ive been looking at alot of people build logs and I decided its time to wall my car. Ive already started and this project should get done within the next couple weeks. So heres the specs, 2 FI Q 15 fully loaded, box has 8.2 Cubes after displacement tuned to 33hz. Im open to any feedback and opinions but if your going to be a jack a$$ then dont bother posting, 1 more thing, Im 17 years old and im doing all of this myself with maybe the help of my friend so dont give me crap for being young I know 95% of what im doing, secureing the box to my car is the hardest thing for me, I was think get brackets shaped like this -|_|- from home depot, flat…

I'm starting fresh, with a whole new setup. the list of the things i'm going to go with: Deck: Pioneer 860MP, switching to Clarion Flipout Front Stage: undecided FS Amp: Xenon 200.4 Sub: 1 or 2 Cascade 18s Sub Amp: MA 5082HX, til i can find a nice 3k amp Electrical: -Alt: stock -Batts: Batcap 2000, need to order a few more -Wiring: Kicker 0/1, 4g, 8g & 12g Deadner: Rammat & EDead Misc: Fiberglassed Tweeters/Mids Fiberglassed Volt Meter If i decide to go with a 2 18s, they will be walled... this build might be slower than my last, but i want it perfect this time around... The Victim:

What’s up everyone. Picked up a pair when they were released. And finally got around to installing them.

Well i am Liam from England been into car audio for 4 years now i have had the car from standard to what it looks like today all work has been done/paid for by me. The main aim for the car was a streetbasser that competes in propper droppers which is a format over here that tests how flat your system plays between 20Hz and 40Hz they test the system with the termlab on the passenger headrest and a window or door open, they test 20,25,33,40Hz and your peak then you get an average i am currently the loudest system in walled under 6,000rms. I have had 4 walled systems in the car over the last 2 years. 6 12s flat wall, 8 budget 12s ported tunnel then replaced the budget sub…

Greetings from Venezuela. This is my first topic in the forum and it's my first serious work on my car. so I would love for their opinions and to clarify my doubts. I have a pair of DD subwoofer amplified ap1500.1 1512th and the great problem I have with the box because I get 4 cubic feet net excluding subwoofer or the port, including low I get 3 cubic feet net internal excluding Port and I believe that less than 1.75 feet low with 1500 rms not going to pay anything.

Title says it all right? I've pre-ordered the subwoofers, I will get them near the end of may/ early june. This is the stratus: I will be tearing out the old baffle, and the front. Making some kind of base, battery rack, and amp rack in the trunk. Clamshell will go behind the seats, then I will seal the trunk off, stuff it with polyfill. I bought E8's (sundown) The final specs will look like this: Re = 3.37 ohms (4 ohm nominal) Fs = 34.9 hz Qes = 0.5323 Qms = 6.93 Qts = 0.4943 Vas = 7.6 L BL = 13.3 N/A Mms = 127.7 grams Cms = 162 um/N Xmax = 12mm one-way linear (70% BL method) Rated RMS Power = 200 watts Depth = 4.25" OD w/ gasket = 8 5/16" Cut Out = 7" Sealed Box: 0…

Im thanking of putting 3 SA-15s in a 4th order wall and ive read around and some say a 2:1 ratio and some say 3:1 ratio and to tune port side highh 45+- i know it changes from vehicle2vehicle and power but what is the best place to start? and any ideas on what size it might need to be? (for a rufe estament)

Ok the project is to remian stealth but get loud! These trucks suck for under the seat room so the best bet is to go the the console with the enclosure....so i did......It is fairly easy to get 1.5 cubes and still remain at a resonable height and does remian comfortable. I did not take alot of early pics....I had bateries charging and could not slow down so I started taking picks about half way through......sorry. objective: Keep stock arm covers keep stock top arm/storage area. Woofer being used is a Fi 12" SSD the rest of the system is still uninstalled...I dont have the time to run wires and install the HU so a local shop willl cover this fun activity. So I drew out a…

Alright so many of you may know I've gone through several systems in the past few years that have ranged from third row boxes, third row walls, all the way to a b pillar wall. Every single one of these systems were only able to reach 150db and not more beyond that. I've decided to step it up a notch this time and stop doing 2 subwoofer setups in such a large vehicle. With that being said, here are some details. Woofers:(8) American Bass XFL 15's Box Design: 6th Order Bandpass Power: 12,000 watts, eventually 22,000 when upgraded to 16 volts Speakers: More information to come Box and design being built by Mike Singer Got rid of the old 2x4's and put a new birch wood …

Hello, Here is the car itself.... Here is my build log for my 2010 honda civic LX, when I bought this car I started with a pair of Alpine Type-E 10's in a prefab on an Alpine MRP-M500. Then I upgraded the door and rear speakers with Polk Audio DXI650's and an Alpine MRP-F300 which I also use in my current build. After that I moved to an AB XFL 15's on an Audio Technix AT1200.1d. This log will reflect my current state: DC Power 180 amp alternator XS D5100R under the hood Northstar NSB-AGM24M in the trunk Audio Technix 1/0 OFC run to the trunk Knukonceptz 1/0 OFC in the trunk Sky High Lugs and RCA's Alpine CDE-HD137BT Crscendo RTS-1 tweeters Sony mids Alpine-MRP-F…

My wife wrecked my town car. There's $5k in damage, almost enough to total it. So I took the check, and it's for sale for 3k on craigslist as a driver. I replaced it with something more fun. 06 Pontiac GTO I found on eBay. Here's a pic I took an hour north of Fresno, CA on the 13 hour drive back to Portland, OR. It's a one owner with 27k. So far I've bought a Diablosport Predator tuner, a Vararam OTRCAI, and tinted the windows. Other than the stereo I'm going to try to keep the mods to a minimum(it's 400 from the factory). It currently has an old Kenwood double din mounted inside the shell of the factory deck. I'm hoping he used a harness and didn't just cut into the f…
