well once i send my pics of my phone to my laptop ill post some pics.. ill try and get some up tonight after work

so here we go.....as some of you may know, i took the plunge and picked up 4 IA 20.1's

Wished I had taken pics of during the construction of the box, but I didn't have my camera on hand. But it's your plain sealed box. Internal volume of .75 cu ft net. Hertz called for an insanely small .57 cubes sealed, but I was afraid the bottom octaves won't be as pronounced. So I ended up going with .75 cu ft. First some pics of the new sub for those who haven't seen it in my other thread. It's a Hertz Audio Hi-Energy 12. pretty nice and simple cone with the Hertz logo on the dustcap. bright ass orange magnet rubber boot. It's pretty simple looking....no huge surround or massive motor structure. This thing is tiny compared to my Brahma MKI 12. Flush mounted.…

well as of right now i am goin to have 1 18in mj18 in my car in 3.3 sealed on a hifonics giving it 400 watts, in the front doors ill have to mach5 6 1/2's with stock tweets on the dash and stock speakers in the bac\k. i got the box for the 18 done today and the 6 1/2's ready to be mounted in the doors. will hopefully get a beauty panel to cover the box up in the back to clean up the look.here are some pics from today. ill probably upgrade the rear 6 1/2's to the mach5's down the road when i get some money.

Here is the build log of the setup in my Lincoln LS. Everything was done at Audio Advisors in West Palm Beach, Fl. Been dealing with them for about 10 years now. This is the third vehicle I've done with them. Big thanks to JC, Tom Mangs and Bob Mercer for eveything. How she was at birth, at the dealership. First part of the make over begining at Audio Advisors. Bob begining work The factory head unit Now with the Alpine IVA-W205. They fabricated the trim panel in house. Not sure what kit they used to hold the double din. I didn't purchase one, so I'm assuming they made something to hold it in place iPod interface cable running under the center console, exiting inside …

Ok, so it's not exactly a build log (and not sure if this is the right place) because I just don't get around to taking pictures when I'm working, but I thought I'd at least post a couple pictures and a list of what I have, as well as a brief review of the products I used. So what we have here is a 2005 Dodge Magnum R/T AWD. Yeah, it's got a Hemi. It's pretty loaded with nav and heated seats and some other goodies. With the navigation system comes a Boston 6 speaker system, which honestly is not too bad, decent midbass/midrange, bass isn't bad, highs are a little weak. I kept the factory head unit in place. The factory nav system is a 6 disc mp3 changer and actually a pre…

Ok so finally the build is on! My car has been in the shop for two months getting an engine swap(95 2.2 n/a in a 91). So anyway this is my first time every logging a car stereo build. I'm not new to forums but I am new to this car audio forum. Here's a shot of the parts: I've already started removing the dash and old Eclipse HU that was in the car. Supposibly the kid I bought the car from bought the car from a car stereo installer. I can confirm that by the very nice previous install of the HU. All twisted wiring cut to length. Here's a shot: This is what it looks like under the hood: Ok back to it...more to follow...! MR2

New box, 2.2 cubic ft per sub, 25 + sq in of port per cube

Well I've had enough of working my life away building cool shit for other people. I scooped up a 1980 Caddy CoupeDeville about a week ago and will be putting a basic hydraulic set up in it. I'll also be using all the various audio gear that I have been storing in the basement for the last 3 years to put a decent system together for it also. I know the gear isn't high end stuff but I bought it before learning about companies like Fi and Sundown. Hey I did by it all at clearance prices at least so I'm going to run with it. Heres what I have planned for gear as of now. JVC head unit. (8) Infinity Kappa 3 way coaxs. May only run 4 depending on room. (4) 10" Infinity Kappa per…

Only thing that sucks is the ipods eq doesn't have a custom setting. Thats the rem switch to my amp btw, lol.

The re build to the finals at toys for big boys So i got a mad idea to rebuild the sound system again So here is a few pictures of what i got up to. So this was the old looking system 111111111111 A bit of tape stop the dust getting in the vents More harming So now i bet the s**t out of it time to strt rebuilding

Well I finally got my 1993 Honda Civic DX Coupe running! Windows tinted by me. Installed a Cat-Back exhaust, Short throw shifter and cold air intake. Nothing fancy just a little added horsepower Will wall the back and run 2 Sundown SA-15's off a Sundown SAZ-2500D. Front stage will be run off a Sundown SAX-100.4 on an old Oz Audio Matrix 130CS 5.25" Component system. Passively crossed over on front two channels and a pair of Sundown Neo-Pro 8" run on low pass and band passed with the SSF on the rear two channels in front doors. Pic of the car itself Will be adding XS Power batts and a new alt.

My next build will consist of two 12bl's fully loaded and an AQ2200d. The box will be ported and built to specs. Now the only problem im going facing is that when running 2200WRMS, do you have to upgrade your alternator? or will you be fine with the xs 3100d? I will only play my system 3/4 of the way up for about 10min every day. Big 3 upgrade is already done.

yup another project haha

2007 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab Names Kevin i am fairly new here and to car audio so any tips or advice will be appreciated. Will post pics once i get everything uploaded to photobucket

I built a ported box for my rlp-12. It's 2.2 cubes tuned to whatever it is. The port is 34 inches long and goes from 1.5 inches at the start to 3.5 inches at the end, i don't know if that would change the tuning or not. I based it off a 2.5 inch port and took an inch off of the beginning and added one on the end.. Outside dimensions are 22.5 x 22.5 x 14.5 inches. Im not going to do anything else to this box cuz im gonna scrap it. My gear my box having some fun with the box my half ass install doesn't the box just look all pretty. im gonna make a different one for the sub. This is the best sub i've ever heard. I just wanted to take it out for a quick 20 minute driv…

Hi, This will be the first build log I have ever made. Been on the forum for years and have gathered a lot of my knowledge and expertise from this forum. I have been working on audio system for about 4 years now, and have had many different setups in my Saturn with each just getting louder and better. It has been a journey. This is my current system and my latest build i may also throw some build pics in from my last system. ENJOY AND COMMENT!

i been wantin to make a thread like this so fk it i am lol.... i started w/ this system ~10 months ago.. big difference between now and then. 1st was an splx15" and ss pca1000d: 136.8db still the same clarion deck.. added EQ w/ 7v out got a bigger box maybe 3cubes added a 4" aero.. this box and 4" port was the lowest hitting out of all the ones ive tried so far. 138.9db picked up a used 9515 and also swapped the pca1000 for the pca1500d the splx was a loud sub.. the dd sounds alot nicer though sealed off the 4" hole on the front, added a side firing 6" flared port.. 141.8db most recent mid/high amp, if you look at the pics i've been through 3 or 4 already.. …

Well my wife decided she wanted some beat in her ride so I just got done with everything and figured I would create a build log for everyone to check out. The goal for this build was to keep the vehicle functional as if it were stock and still be able to use the cargo area to haul stuff. 2008 Chevy Equinox Some images of it Stock Stock Radio Back of vehicle Stock Audio gear and Parts being used LAN Data Bus Interface GM Onstar GMOS-LAN-01 F3 Street 0 Gauge amp package Bullz Audio 1/0 wire Antenna adapter Assorted Mini Anl Fuses with led's Ground Distribution Block Power Distribution Block with Voltage guage Rockford Fosgate RFX9300 Rockford Fosgate P500-2 …
