Build Logs

Nobody cares about the talking, so I'll get straight to the pictures! What could be in these? Smaller, unnamed box: Sundown Audio E12 USA Prototype (DVC 4) Parts Express box: A...catalog? ...and another box... ...oh and this Dayton Audio 240 watt plate amp... The sub and amp together Oh, and the DHL man brought my FREE nintendo Wii today (Thank you mycokerewards.com) All the boxes laying in my room Design for the sub enclosure (2 ft^3 @ 30 hz (per Jacob's recommendation)) Build on the box should start in the next few days.

I have decided to take Thomas-W's advice and build a manifold on my door to house (4) Fi IB3 18's on the top and make 2 slot ports on the bottom out of the rectangles already there. The door is 1.25" thick, I will make a template/face of the entire door adding .75" to the thickness. I'll make a 25"x25" panel to plug the ports so I can run true IB as well. Here is a pic he suggested for me. I will begin tearing the Twin Towers down tomorrow and use the wood to build the manifolds and ports. It will be nice to get the EP4000s out of the HT room cuz I haven't done the fan mods. The IB3s are custom dual 4 ohm, 4 layer IIRC, series/parallel 4 ohm bridged per EP4000 (2 EP4000…

Hello everybody. Some of you on here know what my system consists of, but this is for the rest of the fellas. I have a 2007 Kia Sportage with 2 12" American Bass VFL Extreme DVC 2 ohm 1500 watt rms subs powered by 2 American Bass VFL-100.1 Amplifiers. My head unit is a JVC KD AR880 CD Receiver.

Getting close to finishing.....just need to build "seal off" panels from B pillar back. What do you think so far?

So far my box is pretty much complete. I used the recommended build for the optimal ported . I adjusted a few recommendations in the build as this is my first ever. I cant wait to place in my X-Con!

I was thinking of using aero ports instead of a slot port. That's where I get stuck. Ia2 recomended 240 inchs of port at 32 hertz in 17 cubes so how do you figure out how many aero ports and how long?

my buddy rob just came into some money, i have done many stereos for him over the years. so when he got a new truck he gave me free range and a budget, its a new truck so he didnt want to hack it up.. i understand that so.... head unit will be http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/DVD-Receivers/AVH-P4400BH box will be for 2 sundown SD-10s and the amp will be a older Memphis PR 1000.1 a nice underrated amp. will be wired with 0 gauge that i have here at home, and we will be adding some speakers to the doors soon pictures soon

This is a small build log of a powerwheels I'm doing for my soon to be 3 year old daughter. She loves my music and bass in my truck... found out MECA is does a kids section, so on with a build for her. first pic is her in the truck before anything was done except mocking on speaker hole. more pics will come as I finish pieces. waiting on a few more pieces.

A Kenwood KDC-MP538U deck is going to be installed. Knu 4 gauge wires and the BIG 3 will be done in 4 gauge as well. Stock speakers are going to be kept. Sub box is 2.5 cubes net tuned to 32hz. User will be playing all types of music and this is for a daily set-up.

Well I decided to ditch my dual 12 set up and go for a single 18 DC Level 4 XL in the back. I've been playing around with designs for the past week and finally settled on something. I went to Menards yesterday, got two sheet of MDF and went to work today. It's 6 cubes tuned to 36hz. After my Ebay sale is done on Sunday I'll order the 18 Monday, then I'm going to wait to attach the second baffle until I can make sure it fits good with the sub, and then come a little testing and Herculiner after I'm happy with everything.

Hey Everyone, I'll be building a system into my (new to me) 2005 Subaru Forester over the next couple weeks. This will be my first build ever so hopefully it goes well and I don't mess things up too bad. Opinions and Suggestions are welcome. Goals: Take up minimal cargo space Don't make it too noticeable to people looking in the windows Create the system so it can be removed and stock pieces re-installed I've never had good, tight bass in my past vehicles. I want to achieve that 'tight' sound more than anything. Components to install: 4 Sundown Audio E8s 2 Peerless SLS 8" Midbass 2 Peerless 4" Midrange 2 Seas Prestige Textile Dome Tweeters Memphis Belle 16-MCH1300 …

Well I took the wall out after the show on Sunday, and it's time to start building the new box. Me and Alan only pretty much have the new box designed and will build it soon. Box will be 11cubes after displacements with subs behind passenger facing forward, with the port behind the driver facing up. Tuned to 35Hz. And I should have my other 2000 very soon. I'm really excited to get started.

Will be starting build soon! Getting 2 ma audio hk12x2's rebuilt by PSI into 18s and the will handle 2000 watts each. Currently only have audiopipe 1500.1d but looking for either a sundown 3500 or audioque 3500. I think that's what they are. But something that will put out at least 4000 watts. Whatcha think?

Finally getting to do a build and use equipment iv always wanted to use... cant say what yet, i want it to be a surprise! nothing really special but im pretty pumped about it haha yes!

So ive been at it since april but i just finished on saturday...took me forever cuz i have had so much work...

What's up guys so I started construction and completed my box for 2 12's. Gonna be used for dss ethos 12. Port is 4x20 and box net was 5.99. I used 12volt to see how long I need it for 32hz. It said 27.75 but I rounded up to 28. But I wasn't too sure on how to go about it since it's gonna have 2 bends. I researched it and it sounds super confusing, some saying gotta have the correction part at the end. But I found some that said just measure up the middle so that's what I did to achieve 28" Could you guys she'd some info on if it's correct. If not, could you tell me what frequency I'm at. Alright thanks guys

i started this build log over on smd so i will link it since i update that one alot and ill try and get pic on ssa one's 91 accord total rebuild (new vids) - SMD Forum

I started on a new sub box for the RE SX15 in my 98 jeep grand Cherokee yesterday. It's 4 cu ft net tuned to 31 hertz, sub firing up, slot port firing back. This was my first ported box build, and came out alright. It still needs alot of finish work. I'll post pics later today.
