Build Logs

More like big two cause I didnt ground the alt to the chassis. There wasnt any dedicated ground post on the stock alt so I thought I would put it in later. Thought the other two were the most important anyway. Maybe when I get a new alt for her, I'll do the third. That will be expensive though! Should have done this a long time ago but I was off work due to the weather today. What better time to do it then now? Had to get some new battery post terminals as they wouldnt work with my 1/0 terminals. Put the black loom on there to make it look nice too. It was lying around so why not? Right off the batt I could tell the difference. The lights dont dim anymore and it even seem…

I was goin to go with 2 18" or 2 15" nightshades. But I decided 6 sa 10s would be better.. but idk if i have the room.. i measured my cargo area in my cargo area in my 00 jeep GC. length= close to 52". Width= close to 29". height= i measured 17" but i could go a few inches higher. any sugg from yall?!

Well....we made it happen today....sadly we got through too late for me to meet up with DR.Subwoofer Maybe tomorrow if i get off work in time.....pretty different design we used.....gonna try to edit the vids up quick and maybe post some pics....subs sound great though! Shout out to James and Wenn! Had a good time.....Wenn also came up with a 4th order design for the subs that he's going to build.....see what all works well. We are gonna beautify the box soon....just wanted to get it playing today.....vids in a bit....

tell me what you think for a quick box

Hi guys, here are a few pictures of my install. I changed some wires, changed the fused distribution block. I put a 150 A ANL fuse for the saz 1500. The install is not too clean, but it is not for shows, only for my listening pleasure ! How it was before : and now : Sorry for the poor quality of the pics, I only used my blackberry bold !

Started on these around a week ago and decided to show my progress on here as well. I have posted these on http://www.fiberglassforums.com as well, where I have been doing alot of reading and picking up alot of great info. But this will be slow but constant as i don't get alot of time to work on them right now. So onto the pics... 1st getting the door ready to be cut.. now with the door cut.. And some of the ribs ground off... made a template out of carboard for the shape and cut the base out of birch ply so I can mount it by screws from the back.... Now trying to decide what location of the speakers I prefer, choice 1.. Or choice 2, which is what I think I am go…

Well I started building me a new subwoofer box for my fusion powerplants FPW 1200. figure ill post some pics of it on here. It was design by nightmareaudio.com accept for the plexiglass window I put that in. Right now im about to start painting it. but heres the pics. have any questions feel free to ask outer shell half temp assembled almost totaly assembled router port edge gut assembly drying screws that im using for the subs working on framing up for the plexiglass Testing some light positions Pretty much finished

Hey guys, I did this over the summer and never uploaded it, just figured I would share... Me with it...

I recently did a Cadillac Escalade ESV for a buddy of mine with (2) Fi BL 18's with the flatwound coil and cooling option. Built the box to 14.63 cubic feet with the port tuned to 33 hertz. Wrapped it in vinyl to match the interior of the vehicle and did a big "Fi" logo on the back of the box (notice the logo is an "innie", not an "outie".The amp, for now, is a Hifonics BXI2010D that puts out 1752 watts RMS. I will be swapped with a Rockford Fosgate T40001bd eventually. Built to be a daily driver. Here it is: Sounds great. Real nice quality and it really hits the lows nice, but it just isn't near as loud as it could be with the right amount of power goin…

ok so im building a new box for my freind.. he has tha loudest and clearest system ive heard but he wants to be louder. so yall tell me the specs of his system are: 2 15" Rockford fosgate P2's in a box 44 by 21 on a MTX Thunder 1200W amp.. and heres what the inside baffle looks like on his current box(from a car audio shop.. lol) and heres a real pic of his subs and current box.. Now heres my box design for his subs.. i mite end up making the port smaller but yall tell me. subs facing up. port facing back in the middle of the box tell me what you think, im pretty sure this box will make it way louder. u tell me

This box is for a 18" RD Alpha V1 6.75ft^3 net tuned to 34hz with 111 in^2 of port (this thing is HUGE) Due to the size I have to do the carpet a little different so I figured this would be a great time to try this out.

well my little $50 project came in the mail today, it's nothing special but i took pictures anyways. had to test it out somehow so i unhooked my sub and gave it a whirl on the 1500d.

Finally got time to take pictures of my build its only 75% done I would say. I am still not satisfied with my midbass I am runing passive at the moment and I have sounddeadned and filled the kick panels with poly fiber fill. any suggestions are appreciated. rainbow slc365.25 with dd t2 tweeters (Plan on getting some cal26 tweets soon) ssa xcon 12" dual 2 ohm Lightning audio la-3000md I would say its giving it close to 1500 rms and soundstream stl4.500 for the highs (I plan on changing this amp asap) Dont mind the tape on the amp... Some pictures of my car

LP670-4 in for stereo upgrade, radar detector and tint. More pics to come.

BHE is shipping enclosures as well as getting locals louder than ever Here are some pics

yup another project haha

Just one pic to get it started. I'll get some more up tomorrow. Meant to say SA 12's!!!!

Huge thanks to Jacob @ Sundown for hooking me up with a combo of amps that does more than I could ask for!! Thanks to Pipo and Scott for doing the custom Ascendant Dust caps for me. Thanks to Aaron for building the box for me. Thanks to Travis and Tony for helping out with putting the car together. Best team mates in the world.....by far!!!! Things left to do: Buy batteries. The stock one isn't going to last much longer. Build trim panels for the front and rear of the box. Permanently mount box. Clean up wires. Deaden doors. Sealed back eminence 8's in rear deck add another Sundown 125.2 Equipment List: Source - Alpine IDA-X305 Changer - Alpine CHA-S624 Door Speakers…

I posted this over at ca.com and I thought I would post it over here too. Here ya go. Well I finished building the box, besides Lowes not very good job at cutting wood (the very end up the left side of the port is probably 1/2 inch short), I think it came out pretty nice considering it is my first box. It is 7.75 cufeet tuned to 30 hz. Well here it is- The design by BuckyBoy Setting it up seeing how well all the pieces fit together Doing something Showing how huge the box is Putting it together drawing a hole Cut the circle

After my break in, the false floor was contorted and would be a disaster to fix. On the plus side, this gives me a chance to redesign the box fixing the problems with the first one. To save space, this box will be sealed. It will be 2.3 cu.ft., ployfil-filled, and passenger side facing. Tomorrow I plan to get the wood and cut the boards up. My dead line is Saturday, as I move back to school on Sunday. From the rear of the vehicle, looking into the cab. The small box represents the battery and will be secured somehow. The "floor" extension is to secure the box from sliding/falling. From the passenger side at floor level. I will be returning the floor to stock.…

Going to start on my semi-SQ build today. Can't really call it a true SQ build as of now because of a few things that I'm sure will be pointed out by the SQ guys on here. Headunit: Pioneer deh-7800mp EQ: Rockford Fosgate Symmetry Amp: Sundown SAX-100.4 Mids and Highs: 2 sets of CDT EF-61CF's CDT Imaging mid-tweeters in the A pillars Subs: Sundown SD-1 12's Enclosure: Chambered Transmission line tuned to provide a nearly flat curve from 20-65hz. Gonna get started on the build this evening, and on Tuesday my Termlab should be here, and I'll get some base numbers, even though, as you can tell, this isn't going to be a ground shaker. My RTA should be here soon, and th…

So it finally got delivered last night at around 1030 pm from Rutland VT. I have always dreamed of owning a muscle era car, and decided that this year instead of building a computer or blowing my money elsewhere, that I would look for a project car with my tax return. After several weeks of looking, this is what I have found. The car is home, and after adding some gas it started right up. The stainless steel brake lines I ordered for the car have arrived, and after a short test drive today, I found out that it has either an oil or cooling system problem, and an evident misfire. That being said, this is a long term project that I hope to keep you guys in the l…
