The Victim:

My latest project. It's actually a very big one, but it's extremely unusual. Alot of these posts are cross posted from my 'other' sound forum, but they should make sense My new install comprises of the following.. Sony HU (high end one, tho I dont like it very much) NESA DVD player, 10" overhead screen Fusion FX 45 multi function unit, parametric EQ, 8v line driver and active XO.

Not to much info to post right this second....

alright so i currently have the rl-p in 3 cubes sealed. sounds sweet, just not that great of lows and just a tad under how much output i wish to have. i am currently writing up 2 box plans 1 of which i will choose and build tomorrow. they are as follows. 4 cubes at 30hz with 55.5 square inched of port area 3.5 cubes at 28.5hz with 40 square inches of port area. see any problems with the designs or favor one over the other? opinions? this build is in a hatch and it will be sub up port back. double baffled and 45's at the all corners if i can help it (limited tools here) also if interested, to see what im dealing with, check out my gallery for unfinished pics of the curren…

Going in a 2003 Ford Explorer, this build will be crazy. As of right now, rmzsuzuki89 may not be on much so hopefully he sees this so i can continue with his build. I need some more dimensions.. i'm running out of room, The current box i have designed is 48" wide x 45" high x 33" deep. Then the box rises 5" from their and goes back another 20" maintaining 48" wide x 40" high. So first question, can this design fit? 2nd, can i go deeper and if so how much before it hurts...... Your remaining space

Well, im not going to lie, this build might take longer then i really want. i have BIG plans for the setup im wanting to do. i plan on running 2 DC level 5 12s. Im also going to get a stetsom 7k amp to power them. the box is going to be 5.5ft^3 tuned to 32HZ. i already have all the port material, i just need to start cutting them. i am going to make 6 4" round ports. i will have 75 sq inches of port area. these are the only pictures i have as of right now. ill get more in depth tomorrow, seeing as im about to pass out now haha. to tired to really get to work tonight. here is the port material im going to be working with.

As you know I recently got my Q and started fabricating a box. So far the top and bottom baffles are somewhat finished, lol I need a new sander.. Pictures of work will be up later

Just worked on a small sealed box for a 1988 Chevy Camaro Iroc-Z! Found a router laying around my autotech class, man. Looks pretty nice. And for my FI Q 18 box, I rounded it, sanded, fixing to paint the port and get some carpet! Pictures up later today

Well I've started the Ram finally. The tranny is about toast, but I'll deal with that when she gives up. So far I'm just started on wiring. I gutted it and started the wiring yesterday--and cleaned the moldy carpet (door seals are bad and getting replaced)... only about 3 hours invested so far. I didn't do before pics, really didn't think about it. here's some deadener. All I did is replace what was bad of the factory deadener. I have no intent on keeping this truck so I don't care to go all out on it. the factory deadener was crumbling from the excessive water that's been on the floor board. this is about all the deadener you need on the back to keep it from hu…

This was an interesting design for this guy. Design calls for 2 boxes. One specifically for daily driving music and another for straight competition. The designs are for an SUV. Setup- 4 Sundown SA-8s off of 2 Sundown SAE-1200ds Daily Driver- 3.6cuft tuned to ~31hz Now for the almighty SPL box. A true spl box is one that can be continuously modified until maximum output is found. This doesn't just mean port length tuning but firing direction too! The following box design is an interchangeable baffle. Yep, you read that right, interchangeable baffle with 4 position port firing locations capable PLUS the capability of fine tuning this box from 32.5Hz - 62Hz. Please Note, T…

It starts tonight.

Did this one for a friend he wanted it to only take up a small amount of his door so its not a crazy nice build but it works, it's for a 10" crescendo mid Bondoed so it's smooth as molasses

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

Heres my Setup, just upgraded from 2 Kicker L5's. Optimia Yellow Top Battery Hifonics 1606D Amp Monster Cable DigiCap Alpine Headunit (1) 12' Fi BTL 12 now what i need is help designing a new box, to fit a extended cab s10. The box i have right now i dont like how everything is set up. i want to have the box taking up the entire extended cab space and the sub be on the left side (passenger) and the amp and cap be on the drivers side. any one that could help me design or give me measurements that would be great in the mean time heres a pic of the beast. This pic is when it was in my friends Malibu right before i got the sub from him.

not really a build log but here is the box i made 0.90 @ 35hz with 400 watts in the pimp wagon trying to do hair trick the box had some leaks so im fixing those now

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:

I’m try to install a system in an old Saab 900. Im currently adding active crossovers and EQ sound processors. Still learning to get a nice setting that’s clean but not thin. Finding how to EQ the sub channel. Any advice? I post a picture or two if I can

Well my initial build at the moment is relatively complete, but of course I have future plans. Therefore Ill just post some pictures and you can comment and ask questions about the build if you wish. Ill add more pictures when I get back home, next week. Im thinking of doing fiberglass doors with an 8" mid, 6.5" mid, and a supertweet. Then add two more dcons, maybe ported maybe sealed, not sure.. If that doesnt do it for me, Im thinking SSA Icon 18s.

Ok it fell through with the GTI for now, and as disappointing as that is it made me wanna work on the 300 again and do it right this time. Go big or go home, So slow rebuild time. Only going to update the thread with pictures and answer questions. If I decide to change something you'll just see it, Make the thread a little cleaner. Selling my 18s to Iwantloud, so go check out that build we are doing.

Hello! It's been a while... this was my last thread http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/topic/30682-sanders-bmw-audio/ but it is history now. Here is the new car! Right now it has 1.3liter 55kw carbed engine, but i have already bought new engine D16Z6 that comes with 92kw. Should be enough with this body. New Engine: I am also installing 7inch screen into dash with Raspberry pi computer that is controlled by Android phone to watch videos and play music... Raspberry and screen. Also bought lowering springs and made new front bumper for summer. On 26th march i am going to fix rust on car and repaint it. So let's get into sound... What …
