Build Logs

Here is the build I did a couple of weekends ago for a kid I used to work with. It's 5 cubic feet after all displacements tuned to 34Hz. He's running both off of my old Cadence TXA1000D. They are getting a little less than 500 watts a piece. Looking to upgrade to a 1500-2000 watt amp sometime soon. T-nuts are amazing. Round over on the top edge. Bolt terminals. A little woofer porn for all of you. 10" Sundown Audio SD1-v2 10" SSA Icon 12" Fi Car Audio Q And, I know I'll get hated if I don't post videos. So here you are you whores. It's pretty loud. Should get quite a bit louder when we double the power. EDIT: Fixed a picture.

Picked up another Orphan 8" from Mike a couple weeks ago. These things are badass. Here is the box. & the port & to fully understand the design, Box is .91cuft tuned to 30hz, and so far I think it really likes this box. Just finished it tonight so I didnt get to really crank it up (wife yelled at me for shaking the house at 11pm ) but it has a great sound to it. I will post a vid when I get a chance.

Ill be working on puttin 2 15's in my trunk soon, and it may take me till the end of this summer to finish it. So for that time ill need the trunk empty to measure and test fit. so until that gets done I'm going to put 2 E8's in the center of my back seat IB. pics so far Thats all i can do for now. I'm waitin on some t-nuts to get here tomorrow

how do you determine how big and what hz they are?

Ok here we go.....

Enclosures will be tuned to 35hz ports will be external and 3". Plans are to sink all components in the hatch floor, still being able to retain the spare tire! Ports will run underneath the floor and come but will come …

Buddy of mine picked up a nice looking 87 caprice today for a daily driver. So far it runs good interior looks good ntohing wrong with it just needs a nice cleaning and such. This will be a long slow project but will end up being nice. Def a SSA subs

There's three months worth of chit here. Took me awhile to get all of the photos pulled out and organized so I could put it all into another forum since all these pictures were originally posted one work day after another since I started working on this bicth three months ago. I will be running a pair of 12" SSA Icons on a Sundown SAZ-2000d and a three way up front consisting of 8" woofers and 5.25" components powered by Sundown. It's been one chunk at a time and one 500 dollar bill after another. Mark if you read this, and I mean it, the next one is yours man. Here we go Looks fine to me so far.

I figured it was about time to finally post up this build. We've been working on it for about 2 weeks now and we are making very good progress. Well on to the good stuff!!!! My roommate and i are walling off his '04 Monte Carlo with 3 BTL 18s with 6 SAZ-1500Ds. All equipment going in the monte is: 3 BTL 18" 6 SAZ-1500D 4 sets of Fusion Reactor 6.5 comp. 2 sets of Fusion Reactor 6.5 coax. SAX-100.4 for comp. ( haven't figured out an amp for the coax. just yet. Audiocontrol Matrix Audiocontrol EQS 3 Northstar NSB 100ft batteries Powermaster 250A alt. and lots of wire and sound deadening. Box is 19.5cuft after all displacements with 2 10" aeros and tuned to 34 hz. All is do…

This is my first sub box. I've done some other carpentry stuff before but have always been too scared to try and build a sub box in fear it would sound like chit and be a total waste of effort. It's 2 cubes tuned at 41hz. I'm trying to get more spl out of my sub on 500 watts to give me an edge in the basic 1 class in my local circuit. I hit 135.5db on my current setup but that may not get er done. I could have finished much sooner if I had more clamps. I'll glue the top down tonight after I find my tie down straps and do the pseudo-in law family Easter gig. I almost forgot to add the part about my girlfriend's wisdom teeth being taken out Friday. Puffy puffy cheeks.

Figured id share this here since all of the equipment came from various sources on SSA. i needed a box for my 08 frontier king cab. wanted something low profile and durable for use in a daily driver. also had to house a pair of sundown amps. turned out nice, and the bedliner means i wont have to worry about pucking it up too much. click the thumbnails and they get bigger and that brings me to where im at today. got everything installed and wired up. just gotta finish trimming it out and break everything in. not worried about chasing the elusive deebeez so its around 2.5cf ported right about 30hz. so far it blends okay with the seas components with the amp turned way…

Started this box Saturday evening for a customer. He has an 03 or 06 or something Expedition with the 3rd Row and was wanting something custom back there. first thought was to do a fiberglass amp rack in between teh woofers. After an initial test fit it was outta the question. Circles arent perfect as my jasper jig wont be here until tomorrow and i still have a few more things to do before he pics it up tomorrow. Round over a few more things and sand all my wood filler down, as well as put the carpet on it. sory i didnt get many pics, was trying to get it done ... onto the pics. every screw was countersunk and most were hand tightened. its sub back port up becaus…

Was watching TV today when my boy came over and asked if I had any extra wood to build a box. Had some extra lil peices laying around. It literally took us ten minutes to build this box. Thought I would show a few pictures since I think it turned out nice when we rushed right through it. Hooked it up and it doesn't sound to bad for a ten minute job..

Steve is a close friend of Big Dave and I guess they competed together years ago. While Big Dave likes to do things well, big, Steve is a bit more conservative which I can certainly appreciate. Here are some shots of Steve's build. Since taking these pics, Steve has added a second IXL-10, and is now talking about adding a third in order to enter a competition local to him (Ontario).

well my brother had a bright idea that he wanted 8's in his doors for mid bass....i have one door ready for paint and still have to start the other since he drives that car daily....here are some pics of what i have gotten done and will post more up as i progress with the build.....

The sound stuff: AQ1200D amp 2 12" SDC2.5s So after reading all these build logs, i decided to try to build my own box It's not too bad so far for a first try....and the first time using a skil saw LOL. This is all going into a 1999 Civic sedan also here's some pics! My trunk Yes I'm going to fix that gap....i have to cut the top, put those "steps" in place so the subs and port can all fit like they will be on the front. Also need to cut the port back one inch, overestimated it cause i did like five different boxes before i got everything fit. And this was the easiest way to do it, which isn't too bad. I think it should turn out pretty good! What do you guys th…

Ok it will be going in a white mustang convertable.. 2 cubes 34hrz... a little high had to keep box size to a minimum. 31sqin (ifrc) of port and two Dcon 10s... i am starting the box today an i previously wired the car up with 4guage for now... not sure what amp will go in it yet because its a customers car.. time will tell but here we go woot woot pics will be up later

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=

It has been far too long since I have had a vehicle that I could do a build in, so I'm super excited to be working on this. The pieces that you can't see are the SS Damp and Overkill in the doors. Equipment as of right now consists of DLS components up front running active off a Sundown SAX 100.4, 2 SoundSplinter Orphan8's powered by a Zapco Ref 750.2, with an Eclipse CD8443 for a head unit. Wiring is from Knu with 1/0 for power and ground, 4 gauge distro'd to the amps, 12 gauge for speaker wire. I'll be replacing the Zapco with a Sundown 1500D when I save up a little more, since the Zapco is my brother's and he's just loaning it to me at the moment. I stabbed a hole i…

Ok so my fiancees birthday was the 22nd and this is a late gift shes been wanting something so I built a box for the L5 8 and the amp is a refurb Kicker certified ZX200.2 so here it is. Will be posting up some more pictures later already installed sound ok but i'm not a fan of sealed gonna move it from current location of foot of rear pass seat to the back and port it this was a temp job to give it a lil more.

Here is my attempt at a loud build... The beginning of the box The internal window bracing using 8 4" circles The double baffle and port Before final assembly Assembled with Herculiner box liner on front and carpet on the rest Close up of the flush mount and box liner Box in the truck

Just about finished it all up today, got a few more things to touch up but for the most part it is done. First off thanks to Matt at MCOR for giving me a hell of a deal and JL for coming through in the clutch and sending me a free t-shirt! The goal of the install was to get much improved sound while keeping it stealthy. I choose to go with JL Audio C5-650 Components powered off a Sundown 100.2 still with the factory head unit. The mids were placed into the stock locations, with baffles made onto the 6x9 brackets and the tweets placed into the kicks. Just about all the wires were techflexed, heatshrunk, and labeled for cleaniness and ease of install. The amplifier and…

This is going in a full size Chevy pickup. Nothing big just a little something to listen to. Sub is going in 1 cub sealed and the MLI are going in the front doors. We will be adding tweeters in time. Currently these are the only pieces I have. 1 AA Arsenal 12 and 2 MIL 6.5's. Enjoy the pics.
