Build Logs

This is the initial start to what i like to think will be an amazing set up and time. Between the components I've chosen, too the input needed from the lovely forum members here at SSA. I believe we will make this a real beauty!!! -So let's start off with what's been ordered thus far (2) Incriminator Audio Death Row 15's(2013 model) 1500 rms/Dual 1 ohms(1) Soundqubed Q1-2200D to be ran at 1ohm/0AWG Now for the components still to be added to this final build. I mean when i say done properly, I want the enclosure just right down to the detail, the right amount of power with flow of current/amp hours to take the beating and all around electrically correct for a build, and S…

so i had a huge box in my back seat and it was nice and loud and all but i missed my backseat so i decided when i got some extra cash to have a new box built, i helped in the design and making but i am at no expense a professional box builder this is the best i was able to do on the budget i had and being done by a shop. if i knew people around me that would build a nice box like this i would of done it, i payed 300 for the box its not done...ha still need to rebuild my sub, still need terminals and the flair the ports....right now according to a buddy of mine im sitting at 48.46hz tht is with the two 4" x 6.12" ports, if i plug one ill be sitting at 34.77hz for daily im …

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).

Decided to do a stupidly cheap wall build in my festiva for shits and giggles. - 8-10 PW1074US super blues - audiopipe AP30001D - some cheap batteries - some cheap ass mids and tweeters. This build log thread will just be here to show it can be done. The build will start within the next few weeks if not months when I get off my lazy ass. Until then, tune in for the next build log which will be for another member on here, shakes.

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..

I'm doing a pair of old school JL 12W3s mainly because they have been sitting in my basement for 10 years and I'm sick of looking at them. 2 cubes each tuned to about 31hz or so. I will be using 4" areo ports also. Got started on them tonight.

Very surprised at the output of these 12s in this setup. Makes me want to sign up to the titan forums just to post it...lol On with the pics.

This is going to be a little slow, as money isn't something I have a lot. But, it will be finished in time. Also, this is my first build, so any input, whether it be negative or positive, is appreciated What I have so far: -18" Fi SSD d2 w/ copper coil -Box for SSD -Pioneer DEH-2100IB What I need to buy: -SA SAZ-1000D -Still have yet to decide on fronts -Kolossus Flex 0 Gauge Power Amp Kit -40 CLD tiles and 1-2 sheets CCF I really haven't accomplished much so far. I have had the sub and a box built for the sub for months now, and it has just been playing in my room. Now that I finally have a car that I can put it in, the build starts. My front driver side speaker w…

So for xmas this year, santa was nice enough to get me a new Xcon and a Sundown SAZ-1500d v2. I previously had a Death row 12 running on a rockford amp. It sounded pretty good to me. Thought it was decently loud and hit the lows well. That was until the Xcon was in my trunk running off the sundown. I only have it set around 800 watts (electrical kinda weak) and it is louder then the Death Row was, definately alot cleaner, and hits the lows way better. Both the boxes were tuned to about 30hz. I love the Xcon, and can see what all the hype was about. They are phenomal sounding woofers, and get pretty loud. Can't wait till I can run some more power to it. Anyways…

Here we go.... You gotta start somewhere - Mm-hmm... Well thats gotta go... 20 rivets and a few cuts later Hey look a trunk! Out with the shag, in with the, ok we need something better than this.... Ok lets just build a box pay no mind to the split in the mdf, lol, they were out of drill bits I needed I have my doubts.... looks a little weird... Painted ready for bedliner

Got my stuff from Sundown yesterday! Heres the start of a lot of work to be done and a lot of money to be spent over time. The Second Skin is on the way, keep checking back! 2x SA 12's 4DVC 1x Sundown 1500 Big 3 I am not a professional box builder so don't pick on me. It turned out pretty good.

whats up yall as some of you might know im still pretty new to this forum coming from smd. but im not new to the car audio world. this is what i have right now as before i had different equipment but had to sell it all. so im just getting back in the game cuz i cant stay away from long and going up til i get competition level. this hobby never ends. so heres some pics of the work in progress. enjoy..

He just wants loud and clear(minimal break-up), without a major emphasis on FR. There will be 12 of these... ...in this! Power for subs will be ~4k. Front stage is yet to be nailed down.

I got bored with photography so I started shooting and editing videos. Here is one I did of a customers enclosure build. I plan on doing my entire build log this way... Enjoy comment!

I finally decided to clean out the garage and do a system in my own car and since my daughter is of to college(GO UK WILDCATS!!!) it will be very low budget. First the head unit. I'll be using an Eclipse CD3100. I've never used Eclipse before but it was a gift so I like the price. After I installed it in the dash I decided I didn't like the way it looked. So I made my own kit. I finally found a texture and color that I liked for the new kit. It's called Hammered-Steel and it come in a rattle can. Pretty cool stuff

ok ssa family members i sure could use your help.... i have 2 sa-8s.... i built a slot ported enclouser.... 37w/12h/13d = 1.5 cd. after port/sub displacement.... i ported this ecclouser 3.25in. wide port 1 was 9in. and port 2 was 28in. long.....35hz..... poor results.... im wondering if port width may be to wide.....this enclouser build just doesnt seem to have decent deep bass.... im thinking possibly aero port enclouser build now.... im using dual 2ohm subs on 1500watts..... 2 ohm load....i need some real experienced advise since mines a failure.... i know best recommended 1.2 cubes now how about this porting issue.... help... help.... every day w/out bass is a day in…

This is another build I'm doing for a friend of mine. I'm doing an audio and hydraulic install for him. Goals... Put a clean and simple system together. Keep wattage reasonable to avoid large electrical upgrades. Good overall sound quality and output. Use as little space possible for audio. Got the box started. Using 3/4" birch plywood with a double baffle. Here is a shot of the backside of the sub for those who haven't seen one of these subs yet. Had to get creative to fit a pair of 3" Aero ports in this box. It's tuned at 33hz with a box volume of 1.5 cubes. The "shrek" box. Just needed to black out the top the other sides aren't seen when installed. …

2000 Chevy Blazer GEORGEOUS 18s, dual 1 ohm with BP power option 1/0 cable to do the Big 3 Soon to be upgrading to a 220 amp HO alternator Thats what the setup looks like so far... not bad for my seconds stereo haha, Im kinda new in the game so I will learn as I go.

Built this for a Atomic AP/SPL. Sub is getting built with FI parts. Sub parts should be here tuesday and box is ready. This is going to be powered with an audiopipe 1500d and is going in a 2010 honda accord sedan. About 3.3 cubes tuned to 35hz with a single 6" aeroport. I'll be adding some polyfill to see how much better it would sound for the owner. Maybe about 3 lbs worth.

This is a compilation of the evolution of designs I put my poor truck through including the latest incarnation of my 04 F-150 extended cab. Basically it is three build logs sandwiched into one. The first one was just an asinine monstrosity. 25 cubes, took out the back seat it was awful, in fact the only decent thing about the enclosure is the drop in port design. The second was my first attempt at a cut through design. I actually got the major points right on the first try. The cut through came out well, as did the box and it did not leak. The amp racks were awful and I ended up blowing two 3000Ds because the amps were mounted directly to the enclosure, but that is what e…
