Build Logs

Last system consisted of a sundown audio 3k on 2 re Sex 10's and a sundown 125.2 on the factory door speakers. Plan is to get a sundown 50.4, alpine H701(to be run with an alpine w200) and some hertz 3 way components. Going from 10's to 12's and a forward firing box sealed off. Here is a video of the previous system Box was tuned to 30hz. Well here is the tear down and rebuild process Bye Bye Blew 1 10 last week and put a cover over the hole so I could still have some tunes for the time being.

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…

From some kicker 10s in high school, its nice to now have the loudest bass at my college with a single subwoofer. Who needs back seats anyway? Incriminator Audio - Lethal Injection 15. Here was a video of me testing it when I got it all hooked up:

So i did a build in my wife's car awhile back. It's a simple build just added a 10" sub for a little added bass. So i am going to start on my wife's car with a custom enclosure in the trunk. Its a 2012 toyota corolla and i will place it in the wheel well area. This is going to be a slow and learning process as i only get an hour or so a day, if that. A few starting pics... So i thought it would be easier for me to take it out to start with the taping and prep work. Also once i get to fiber glassing I would not want it to be smelling like fiber glass in her car.

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. ]

Not much of a log but I took some pictures along the way. I will say this sounds great and the low end really surprised me a single 8" setup. After a little break in I'll hook up the Digital Designs DD-C2a bridged @2ohms. Shout out to John23a for the design help. Enclosure is .7 @33hz Onto the pics:

Here are some pics of our SPL truck at Tj's audio.. This truck brought home a 3rd place trophy from the USACI World Championship this year. We managed to hit 159.7 db @ 65hz using eight Addictive Audio V2 12's, Four Addictive Audio 200.1 amps, and 1 BatCap 8400.

This will be my first car audio system. Fi Q 12, 2.25ft^3 ported to 32hz. All I have right now is my sub. Box is currently being built by TRP and a DD M2b amp is on the way. First off my chariot... 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT. Mods: Greddy Evo2 exhaust system, Injen cold air intake, Megan Racing short shifter with Greddy counter weight knob, Fidanza light weight flywheel, ES Polyurethane motor,trans,and shifter mounts, corner lights, tail lights, Mio C520 GPS, Escort X50 radar detector, and Sony CDX-GT740UI head unit. Pics of my car are a little old but the only thing that has changed is a new front factory bumper with out the Mitsubishi sign, so you get the idea. I will a…

OEM stereo -> Audiocontrol EQL -> Soundqubed Q1.750 -> Rockford PPS4-6 and Morel MDT-12 & Soundqubed Q1-750 -> Sundown SA-12D2 Quick snap. Box is big and awkward. Its turns up around 2ft3 after sub and port displacment. The box nex to it is for a 2nd battery (XS D3100, I know that is too big for the little amp, but got that battery when I had a SQ Q1-2200). Sad thing is I need a 2nd battery even for that 750w amp. Maybe I should buy a smaller battery. But it;s easy to build a new box,. So i'll see how this all works out in the next couple weeks.

Guess what I got yesterday!!!!!!!!!! Should be going in a 1997 Cadillac Seville These seem to be great and heavy subs, The smaller sub is my old pioneer that is also "1000 watts RMS" .I used it to show how big the Z15 is. Can't wait till my 2200.1 comes in!!!! Also, how does 6 cubes @ 32 hz sound? Anyone know how much port area I need for this?

Almost done with the build in my 2008 Mazda Miata with a powered hard top. The build make the car a true one seat SQ car. I guess you could call it a theme build in that I was going with the bigger is not always better. I was trying to get the highest possible quaility out of the smallest footprint of product possible. The gear used: Head Unit: Eclipse 55090 soon to be changed to the Denford 8250 Processor: Audison BitOne Tweeter: Hybrid Audio L-1Pro Mids: Hybrid Audio L-3 Mid/Base: Hybrid Audio L-6 Sub: JL Audio 13tw5 Amps: JL Audio HD-600/4 Running Tweeters and Mids JL Audio HD-600/4 Running Mid/Base and channels 7…

$650 Ballin On A Budget Build. Had to add $50 for the two sheets of cabinet ply I'ma pick up at HD hopefully this weekend. Everything else was traded straight up for what I already had. That means it's officially build log time. Pics of gear: RD Alpha/PSI Hybrid 15D2. Hit the motor and basket with my rim cleaner. Current dustcap (not glued down yet). What will replace the current decal. Soundstream RUB1.2500D. I am smitten .

Tuned to 30Hz Ported, 2.75 cu.ft

Hey all, So I recently decided its time to throw down with our basements system. Recently purchased two Fi SSD 18's to go along with our existing Memphis M3 15's and our QMC 1850HD amplifiers. I along with some help am building the enclosures. The first one is done and already throws down. (For the 15's) I will get a video soon and post it up, just keep nagging me. But here are some pics... Here are some crappy build pics from my cell phone Here are some pictures of the SSD's Let me know what you guys think, the first enclosure already rattles the house. YOu can feel the ground outside the basement pulsate... The first enclosure as been carpeted I am still workin…

My friend just bought a barely used sundown audio zv3 12 and came to me wanting a box built for his srt-4 so he brought it by and i got all the measurements down, tuned it in at about 32 hertz hes got it on a 5000w amp with it turned halfway up and hits like crazy, keep in mind this is my first box build, also there is indeed two supports on the inside of the box. This thing is a massive twelve Fits like a glove

I have had a build log on **** for awhile and I figured I would share some info on the build here. Truck is a 2004 Dodge ram 1500 single cab with a 2/7 drop on 22" black and machined US 55's. Sub stage is 1 Atomic APXX 1078 15" on a DDM4 wire at .7, Toolmaker dual inputs. The enclosure is 5.5 cubes net sub forward custom Psychoacoustics oval aero out the side. XS d3100's under the hood, all toolmaker terminals, 8 runs of SHOK 1/0. 4+,4-. The best score to date for the truck in MECA is a 151.3 @30hz at the headrest. What is everyone's opinion on this build? I will post pics when I get home.

Well I thought I would start a build log even though my stuff doesn't even come close to what most of you are doing. lol Anyways, build will consist of the following stuff: 1998 Ford Explorer Sport 2- SSD 12's dual 1 ohm Soundstream RUB1600.1 amp All Knuconceptz power/ ground wires 0 awg 12 awg speaker wire 250 amp alt Yellowtop under the hood Big 3 w/ 0 awg 40 CDL tiles from Don @ Sound Deadener Showdown just to tame the cargo area a bit. No front stage yet as I don't have the cash for them yet. I business partner has an alpine 5 channel amp with a center stage I can use when I do get the components. Not sure of the model though. Current system is an Orion 12 on 200 r…

I used to frequent this site quite a bit as a young basshead, but adulthood changes things as most of you probably know. I still have passion and love for bass and I'm excited to finally be able to put a system back in my car as I'll be driving a lot for my new job. I know the basics of car audio to an extent, but still need some help with some elementary questions and decisions. The plan is to install my 12" SSA GCON powered by a Sundown SAZ-1000D that I ran in my Jeep a few years ago in my current car which is a 2014 Accord. What I do need is a line out converter, a secondary battery, and wiring for the big three upgrade. Here's what it looks like in the trunk …

Here's my system. Not much exciting going on. 2008 Saturn Vue Stock HU Stock door speakers MTX RFL600D 12" Adire Audio Shiva in 1.21 cubic feet sealed The factory speakers sound pretty good, but are little harsh. I do plan on replacing them in the future, but they will hold me over for now. The HU will probably stay. Onto the pics. Like I said, not much, but it will hold me over for a while. The bass knob is way under the dash and is kind of hard/dangerous to adjust while driving (most of my driving is done at 65 mph). I'd like to move it to the center console somewhere so it's right there within arms reach, but I'm not sure exactly how to go about doing it.…

I have started another build log on a porsche forum thought ild let you guys check it out sofar. My plan is a fiberglass box for a single treo ssx 10 running on a treo ssx2000.1 and a zapco 750 on mids and highs. heres the link http://www.944online.com/cgi-bin/forum/for...37950655;start=
