Build Logs

Already posted on ca.com, but Ill just repost it here because its late and Im bored. And in case anyone is wondering, the van that you see in my avatar is sold, and this is my new daily ride. I have an Astro that Ill be starting another serious SPL build in eventually. This is just a smaller daily system. Equipment Pioneer 880PRS 2 Fi BTL 18s 2 MB Quart DSC2000s 1 MB Quart DSC4150 1 MB Quart DSC2150 2 sets Hertz HSK165 Some Eminence/Selenium 3 Powerware batteries KnuKonceptz wiring Damplifier Pro deadener Box 4.2 cubes sealed 17.5 cubes ported 410 in^ of port 47hz tuning I really hope this box doesnt sound like crap.

I decided to build a kind of fart box for a local comp to get higher scores. and while i was designing it i thought i could make a second port for daily use and shove it through my backseat. I wanted to get a box for two 15s in the car but the most space i could get with the design i had in mind was 2.375 cubes per sub and i want more. so ill be using this box for this month then work out a new design based on this new box to get 2 15s in my trunk. this box will be a little over 4 cubes, with an external flared port, and lots of threaded rod and carriage bolts. i spent most of the day getting this far

Sorry for the semi-blurry pics, it was foggy as a mofo outside.

Just got this about a week ago. The paint needed some much needed love, so I took it over to my buddies body shop. Thinking of adding a single sub to the sub stage of this car. Opinions?

!!!!!A video build log - 4 Death Penalty 18's 4th order and 16 volts!!!!! I guess I will start by telling you that I am leaving everything in the Tahoe until I get the Blazer done. So you won't be seeing much equipment until it's done. Also, I would like to thank my sponsors for the great products that I have and will receive. Mechman alternators for the red 400 amp unit, beautiful piece!! XS Power for the new XP1000's and the D680's. Amazing batteries!!! Now with that said, onto the videos.

Hey Everyone, I decided to start my build log now... Thing's are starting to come together and it's close to rebuild time. This is going to be my Third build for this Car and hopefully my last one as my goal is to pay off my Envoy and make it my show/fun car, and buy my Lexus IS-F that I always wanted. I would like to say THANKS to Jay-Cee for helping me every step of the way!!! Thanks SSA for giving me a great place to learn and meet some cool people and make some great friends! Special thanks to Andrew @ Argent Audio for being more of a friend then a guy who just is looking to get my money (witch he did anyway's lol). Argent Audio has showed me outstanding customer ser…

Yup, decided id go the other way and make an awesome front stage before tackling the subwoofer stuff first! ive always had different 6.5 comp sets and a sub stage but even with tuning and refining, never felt like you are there at the show front and center. ive gotten the staging close but with active x/o's on a on-axis 2-3 way front stage, i think thats what im really looking for. currently running 01 accord hertz hsk 6.5 comps old pioneer deck, also have a alpine 98-47 that ive had forever. soundsplinter rlp-15 future plans 2-3 way active front stage. ipod/iphone with line driver. or maybe an active deck? us amps md 21 on hertz tweeters 125-200 rms bridged 4 ch. …

I've decided to start looking for my next project. I'm looking for something outside of what you see everyday. Going to be loud as hell but still look cool. I'm thinking old... Any ideas? Budget around 7500.

I am very happy with how this build came out, I have a ton of pics on the comp at home, and I will get them posted here soon,. I'd like to thank NT_Hardcore, Focalrock4life and my wife Kasey for all the time that went into the project. NT really did a nice job with the wiring, there are a couple things in the back that need to be tied up, and they will be when we can get the car back in a few days.

This will be my first build log so any suggestions to improve it are welcome. This build is going to take a long time and I'm in no rush. Slowly as I get cash I'll be buying the parts one by one. I'll be going for an active set up. Car: 2006 Toyota Camry Altise Limited V6 Here's my shopping list: Head unit: Pioneer DEH-80PRS This head unit has all the features I want for the active set up. Mid Drivers: Morel Supreme SCM634 Carbon Fiber Cone 6" Midrange Tweeters: Morel CAT308 1" Textile Dome Tweeter Subs: 2x Fi Q15s (Bought) 4 Channel Amp: Undecided Mono Amp: Crescendo Audio BC3500D/Crescendo Audio BC2000D Good value for money on the BC2000D. Just not sure if I want to run…

Starting with an almost stock truck. 2005 Chevy Silverado Standard Cab 4x4 5.3L First the equipment. 2 db Drive K9 10"s MTX Thunder Elite 81001 Kenwood eXcelon KDC-x595 Installation First we started with 10,000k 35w HID's and legal tint. Then we installed radio, bass knob, door speakers, tweeters, and amp. Then it was BOX time! EPIC SAW!!!!

Slowly but surly this Tahoe will become a basic demo vehicle. I already have 2.5 bulk packs of dynamat in the rear plus some Black Hole 5 in the rear doors.

Lil bit of pics anyone? ;o

Here is the stereo portion of my bug build. I pulled this bug out of a field 2.5 years ago. It's a complete car build. The most of the interior was built around a nice system.. this is the car that I didn't have when I was in high school back early 90s..

Pioneer head unit 2 sets of 6.5 Polk components 4 10" Polk subs Memphis 5 channel amp 1/0 wiring 2 Kinetik batteries Custom fabbed door pods, battery trays, and amp rack. The sub choices were limited due to budget and space. All factory power and grounds upgraded to 1/0 wire and a high ouput alternator is planned over the winter. All power and signal wires have been kept seperated. The cab floor, rear cab wall, and doors have been fully sound deadend. Sub enclosure. 3/4" mdf used with 3 internal braces. This was built by my friend Amp rack. Used 3/4x3/4x1/8" angle and some flatbar f…

Box build is happening today, it is raining right now, waiting for it to let off to get the first layer of resin in the box... Four more cuts today, and than its just assembly and glass work. I am probably gonna order 80 sq feet of second skin soon and throw some of that in. I have already removed all of my factory speakers. All of the equipment for this build is in my signature. Will be updating throughout the day. Box is 3.68 cubic feet (before port displacement) with 69 sq inches of port. Double front baffle, countersunk screws, and completely resin'ed. Will be holding two 10" TC sounds oem's and tuned to 42 hz. So here are some pics:

I finally got in the amp, midbasses and so on and got to work. The box has been under construction for the last week and is done, finally. 2 cf @ 30hz 25.5 in^2 of port. I didn't want a full height port because it would have been stupidly long. As such I built the port as a separate unit and then made a cutout in the front panel and a flared trim piece to finish it off. Here's the port. Then I laid out the template for the cutout. and made the cut on the router table. I doubled the baffle around the sub and glued the port in place. Here is the box minus the port flange ready for paint. The flange was going to be painted a different color. The baox itself is pain…
