Build Logs

First off, I'm going to tell you now this is going to be a super long build. I work a minimum wage job and have a child to take care of and bills to pay so they come first, Also bare with me this is my first actual build myself. So if I mess up somewhere along the lines, Feel free to give me some ideas and pointers i'm always up for learning new things. So to start this off, The stuff I plan to run. 2 dc audio level 4 15's 2 dc audio 2k's 2 xs power 3400's PPI S2 Components Mechman 270amp Alt The Jeep SKY HIGH FTW

well it took about 2 weeks after the mazda wreck but i got a new ride.. its an 01 volvo S60 T5 .. i will be doing a single 15 at first but with my calculation im pretty sure this car will be getting 2 15s soon... hehe.. PICS TO COME..

Picked up an accord a few months back. Didn't get to put any audio in it right away since it needed some minor TLC Dealer pic Now fixed up all the small dents and dings. So far ive added Oem lip kit + new bumper Blacked out the headlights + added projectors & 6k hid's Acura TL wheels powdercoated Amr coilovers tint/visors injen intake dc sports race header greddy se exhaust Now onto audio Pioneer z110bt Rockford 3sixty.3(when it releases) ID xs 65's sundown 100.4 SA 15 sundown 1200 I got the majority of the car sound deadened. I wanted a quiet cabin so i did the floors, roof, rear pillars, & trunk area with rammat + second skin luxury liner. Next is to pull out…

real simple build that is semi-temporary. xmas im geting another amp so ill just have to cut a new piece of mdf and mount it up there. sorry for the crappy pics... used the camera on the phone and i worked on it at night. first i mounted a piece of mdf with bolts to the metal. next i got another piece of mdf to bring the amp rack out so it clears the rest of the rear deck. here is the mdf rack mounted on there. showing the clearance with the sub box in. AA arsenal ftw pic of the sub box. (the amp rack hasn't been added yet but u wouldn't be able to see it anyways. finishing it tomorrow night.

Well i used to have a 90 TSi Talon AWD which i traded for this 94 Civic to do a nice lil trunk build for USACi new trunk class. But im doing this one the right way, itll have everythinggggg replaced on it by the time im done with it, started a lil dismantle last Sat. Plans: Alpine 9835(Have) Sundown 100.4(Have) Vifa tweets(Need) AA polys or ID OEMs(Have) 4 Stinger SPV70(Have) 2 12s(Not sure on what ones yet) or 4 10 Type Rs 2 Sundown 2000s(Maybe more or 3500s) Andddddd.....THE CIVIC: Yessss......BLUEEEEE EVERYWHEREEEE:

Ok Guys, Its been going on for a while, but I though it was time to put up some pictures. Just to let you guys know I dont have my own garage and most things have been imported. The problem is good gear are either redicilously exspensive or not availeble at all. First Ill start with my old setup then move on to the work in progress. Here she is in my garage. Below was how it was before. (no comments lol) It is far from perfect hence the change. It played fairly clean, and loud ..mind you it was a bit peaky though. Dont mind the words in the window. The pic was taken of our local forum after one of the meetups More pics coming soon...

Alright guys. I recently decided to wall my 2001 Olds Alero after getting a really good quote on a Crossfire xs v2 18" and a strong need to build something. It will be one 18" for now and I plan to get another down the road. I have been keeping a video log on youtube so I'll include that with the pictures. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ertvN6Cy13Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsbYqjuh0ac Pics of the old box getting ripped out:

I just posted a small intro on the new members thread and said I was going to post my build so hear are a bunch of pictures to bring you up to speed. I was out of audio for a long minute until I found a bunch of videos on YT and it got me fired up again. The game had changed a lot since I was into it in the late nineties. Before all this madness began I had an alpine 6.5" comp set and a single 12". It has grown into somewhat of a monster now and it continues to get better... Here is an outside pic to set this thing off. I am repainting it this summer. Matte black with a rhino lined roof lol Old doors new door build for a single 10" Window controls molded into door pan…

I didn't get any pictures during the process (camera was down and decided to not come on until it was all done). But the box is 3.3 cubic feet with 48 sq in of port tuned to 32 hz. This is also the first time i've ever done a kerf port, and i thought it turned out pretty good. Questions? Comments?

just a few pics of the stuff i got laying around atm and will be putting in the van soon still wating on my btls but they should be here sometime later on today and i will get some pics of the subs and maby a video or so in the next couple days also its my first box that i have ever built lol so go easy on me if everything does not look up to par box is 49"w 27"d 25"T port is 22"L 7"w not to sure what the tune is

I have a sundown scv-4000 amp, wired at one ohm. The sub's are 12" Zv4's sitting in a 4 cubic ft box, tuned at 40hz but loudest at 48hz. I have a 300 amp alternator wired with the big 3. All the wires 1\0 gauge. I have one Xs d3100 battery. Door speakers are 6 " Morels components. Rear deck are 6x9's morel components. Head unit is pioneer DEH-08prs. Vehical is 2002 KIA spectra ls. The KIA has Mojo Mat in the interior and trunk double lined on head liner. The doors are done inside and outer side. The system is hitting 141.1 on the DB's. The amp has been tuned if that makes sense? I have a few pics more to follow.

It's finally time to re-do some things. Should be selling some stuff this weekend, which means I'm going to buy some plywood and build some diffrent enclosures for the mains (also put the HDS tweeters to use). Porting the ca18's should bring out a bit more mid-bass Since the Rl-i is going in the car because of space limitations and I've always wanted an 18, I'm going to replace it with an xxx. I've already started the box for it...here is where I am now : 1 inch mdf, undecided wether to flush mount it or not (baffle is going to be double). Still need a couple more braces and a magnet support after seeing how fragile is the basket, more precisely the mounting lip. ]

Did this for a friend he wanted 1 - 8" mid 1 - 10" mid and 2 - tweeters in his door, so i cut out a mdf base to match the door panel, trimmed to fit. So here's the mockup so far, it all fits snug, we're using all crescendo components the selenium is for mockup. Using regular fleece and two coats of resin no fiberglass Fleece stretched and stapled Two coats of resin Fitted to the door Finished product nice and snug Not as smooth as i could get it but my friend didn't care otherwise i would have bondoed it, i think later down the road it will get vinyl not sure though

Brand new F-250 Super Duty King Ranch trim. I'm currently installing: Focal K2P in the front doors Focal Access 165A1s in the rear doors. I'm not so sure about the layout on the previous years, but the 2008 super duty has a 5x7 in the C pillar, and a tweeter in the rear door panel. So we are putting a enclosure in one of the storage pockets in the rear door panel to hold the access woofer, and fitting the tweeter in the stock location and eliminating the factory 5x7 in the pillar. Alpine 4.150 JL 250.1 to power a JL w3 10" woofer. I tore apart the center armrest storage compartment and fitting a sealed box for the w3, the 10" woofer just barely fits in the compartment a…
