All of this is going in here: Starting off with these bad boys 2 Fi Audio SSD12s (thanks FI) in an Argent Audio Enclosure (thanks Andrew): Mounted: Powered by this (thanks SA): Started off by mounting a piece of wood to serve as my amp rack in the trunk: Then I mounted the amp: Going to paint the amp rack black when it stops raining out here in LA. This is as far as I got yesterday. More to come in the next week.

Starting a build log for my 1995 Cadillac Eldorado. Will use Pioneer Head Unit, Blues speakers, and Linear Power amps. Working on it as I have time, will update as often as possible.

This is a box me and a friend are building for his Exterra. It is an 18" Fi Q powered by an SAE-1200. It will be about 7.5 cubes after displacements tuned to 30hz. Some pics of the gear. I like this one. Next to one of my DP's

Truck- 2008 Escalade Subs- 2 AA chaos 15's Box 7cu ft@34hz Subs up port back

I recently aquired a brand new Sundown SA8v2. I talked with Thumper about a variation of an enclosure he built years ago for this sub, but after a lot of thinking, I wanted to do something original. Even though I have way more power than the 8 was designed to handle, I wanted to build a T-Line box. I built one years ago, and it sounded amazing. However, I didn't want to build just another boring rectangle t-line box that just looks like a ported box from the outside... So... I present to you my variation of a t-line box I threw together this evening. It took a couple of days to design it, and I thought it was going to be a nightmare to build, but it actually went toge…

So I finally got around to helping my little brother install his little system lol! I must say it looks and pounds very nicely! The box was designed by Ram Designs, http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/user/17102-ram-designs/ The assembled box! then we installed the subs and wired it all down to 1ohm load! since they are d4 subs! Yes I know that isn't the best place to put an amp but it is all we have to work with in the trunk area! as you can see the trunk is quite full now! The car now sits a bit lower in the ass end! lol and yes the drums are painted orange! here are a few other customization my little brother did while he was waiting for me to help him w…

Finally got where I wanted to be audio wise after a few years. I have had lots of setups but like this one the most. It is the most musical substage (at low volume) I have had yet. I'd like to thank everyone for their help and knowledge along the way. Official TL score on the dash with all windows down 152.6 @ ~44 The subs are Fi BTLs

Ok today i got started on the tear down and rebuild of the 2000 Lincoln Town car. Enjoy!!! The car The old setup

Hey Everyone, I've been reading this forums for a while and only recently created an account to start posting. This has become my favorite car audio site, especially since it has a great interface for my phone at work Anyways, here's the first car I bought, a 96 v6 Camry xle, and it is time to start it's journey in car audio. It will be a long one as I like to save for a while and buy bigger after learning my lesson going cheap and regretting/wanting more. I won't post my plans for the car as they change somewhat every time i sit down and put some thought to it. I'll mainly be updating as parts show up on my doorstep, past the point of no return for me haha. Heres…

This system was built by a shop in California before the owner of the vehicle moved out here to Arizona. The goal of the build was all SQ and, while some of the fabrication was okay looking, alot of it simply did not match with the quality of the sound. Also, it was pretty difficult to get to all of the amplifiers or the bit one if you needed to. So, the new goals for the new build were to dress up the trunk a little bit more so that it's style would be complimentary to the vehicle and to the sound systems. The door pods needed to be redone to accept a new size speaker. The tweeter pods in the a pillar needed to be completely rebuilt to allow for a much larger overa…

Well I have been working on my car for about 2 weeks now and figured I should post up some pics of the build. The car is being built to compete in MECA's amatuer street SQ class. The car is not 100% done yet, it just needs to be made pretty and then I am set, but that won't happen before the comp. at Casper Saturday. Before I begin I want to say thank you to Mark at SSA (for one of the best sounding subs that I have ever heard), Jacob at Sundown (for some very well built amps), all of my buddies at SoundCheck (Goddie, Cooper, RP, Hank, and Ryan), and my team mates Marshall and Chris. Equipment being used is in my sig. Here are the pics in order (somewhat)
