Build Logs

I'm going to be doing a box for 6 1508's and I have 6 4" aero ports lying around. I was wondering if a box at 6.5cubes (after discplacment) with 6 4" aero ports would be to much?

Nevermind, found it Stealth FTMFW! It's not going to win any best install awards anytime soon....but I was pretty happy with myself for finding that little cubby area to hide it in And yes....everything is dirty and I need to clean. And come to think of it.......I actually think this is the first time I've posted any pics of any of my installs on the forums

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.....I've switched over to (2) 10'' SSA ICONS sealed from a 10'' Fi BL in 1.25ft^3@33hz. I couldn't get enough port area for a decent ported box so I was forced to ditch the BL. Here's a list of the equipment: Powermaster xs1200 Kicker Hyperflex 1/0 Pioneer Premier Ts-c720 w/ Seas tweets Sundown 100.2 (2) 10'' ICONS in 1.4ft^3 sealed JL 1000/1

Well I want my back seat again so Im doing a blow through. I have a bagged 95 ext cab chevy. My sub is an 18" BTL and my amp is a Kicker KX2500.1. I have dual optimas and 0 gauge wire. Batteries and amp will be hidden under the rear seat. Heres what im starting with Box Design(I put the sub on the other side How the front will look The truck Now I wanted to sound deaden it really bad (RaaMat) since everything is torn out, but it wasnt in the funds($400 for the kit)..I have some stuff that I will throw on the back wall to reienforce it and next spring Ill get it done. Night 1(Tuesday). Tore the entire thing apart, didnt break a single clip, pretty proud of that. Th…

As the title says, i have a 1986 F150 Regular cab. With this modle truck their really isn't really any room behind the bench seat to put a sub with out being on top of the steering wheel, and not cutting a hole in the back of my cab. This is about my 5Th box I have built for my truck. Ok no more talking, on to the build Head Unit: Alpine 9885 ($60 at best buy, on clearence brand new) Subwoofer: 12" shallow mount Pioneer FTW 3.25" mounting depth Amplifier: 1400W hitron bridged at 4 ohms (getting replaced with a sundown 1000d soon) And the truck that all of this is going into Been in the family since brand new, with 131,xxx miles on it, still runs and drive…

This is my first real build up with decent equipment. I have some of this installed. All I am waiting for is My box to be built and my amp to get here Monday/Tuesday. (I know where i placed the crossovers are not in the greatest place but cannot change it now) Kicker speaker wire for the components A box that came in the mail....Kicker 0 Gauge(got a good deal on it) I also bought Some KLM and i think one to many fuses lol. My RCA's 30 GB Ipod

Today i decided to pull my box out and do a resand to remove some dings and dents, while it was out i thought ild take a few pics of my system. The head unit it an alpine dont remember the modle but heres a pic Treo 4 by 6's in the front doors Im In the prosess of cuting holes in the back panles for peerless 6.5's Now pics of the box its made of maple and has two peerless 8's in it. Undercoating in the wheel well Powerd by a zappco 750

Alright, so I started my box build yesterday with a buddy of mine. It's 5.5 ft^3 roughly. It's sealed with a downfire mounted subwoofer. The subwoofer, as stated in the description, is a Dayton Reference HF 15" and will be powered by a Bash 500w plate amp. (4ohm) DAY 1 It was about 90 degrees yesterday with 94% humidity. Needless to say, we were a little warm. Just some scrap that we used from my first box build. Just mocked it up. DAY 2 Just had a little bit of time to work on it today. Here's a pic of the amp. And here is the only piece of wood I actually cut tonight. This is obviously the back plate. I plan on using an oak Formica to match my living rooms…

this is a build for 32 sundown E8 subwoofers powered by 2 SAZ-3000D's strapped @ 2 ohms. the box is aimed at 16 cubes, but due to the damn small space i have to work with (lol i have an SUV and i said small space ), it's going to be 14-15 cubes. tuned at around 33-34 hz. give or take since i dno the exact box space. it might take a little while to get finished. i need 4 extra hands to hold some rings while i glue em in place to make sure i know where they go to fit all of them. top part of the clamshell wont be so bad as far as placement, but bottom sucks! i can only go so far out because the seats are in the way. i can only angle them to a certain extent because i cant …

New box I built for my truck. It fits a whole lot better. I'm still waiting for my new port to come in but heres a picture with an old port. I'm not sure how I should finish the box. I wanted to paint it the color of my truck which is ford's orange/red rust color but I can't find anything close to it in stores. I'm hoping you guys can give me some new suggestions on how I should finish it. Once the port comes in I'll take pictures of it in my truck and let you know how it sounds.

hey guys, i purchased a bl 15 a while ago and now im starting to measure my trunk to see how big of box i can fit. i made an exact replica out of cardboard a box thats was a little bigger than 4 cubic feet and 17 inches high. when i tried to put it in my trunk (corolla 98 is the car) the box was rubbing a tiny little bit height wise while it was about 75% in. i was wondering if its possible to make the box 16.5 inches high instead of 17 without sacrificing speaker output. sorry it's a bit complicated to explain!

No pics yet, but just thought I would start a thread Bought a 1992 Astro and will start a new build soon. Ripped everything out of the suburban yesterday (13 hours of fun). . .picking up my new silverado crew cab today The suburban has made 8 yrs so I am finally going to get something new. Right now, the plan is (6) Mayhem 15's and (6) 40.1's. I am lucky I managed to get two more 40.1's over the past couple of weeks. Going to squeeze all the mids and tweets I can get in the doors and where ever else I can find. Pictures will follow soon. . . Brian

Using the sub Acex3a won and using it for a db drag event tomorrow. Bad news is I only have a 1500 to power it, but we'll see how it does. Here's the box specs for what I built. Internal Volume: 6.29ft^3 Port Area: 111in^2 Tune Frequency: 32.97hz on to the pics...

Sealed box for 2 12" Cerwin Vega Vmax subs. This is for a member on another forum, just thought I would post it here as well.

Having Alpines since my first system, I wanted to try something new. I went with Hybrid Audio Technologies Clarus line opting with the 6 1/2" over the 5 1/4" after reading the review Car Audio Mag gave the 5 1/4". These drivers were a lot deeper then the type-r's I replaced them with. Here's the comparison in size. After adding another layer of deadener on top of my pre-existing Damplifier Pro I was ready to go. The install required the mid hole in the door to be cut a little larger to satisfy these beasts. Using the speaker ring as a template I made my marks and used a jigsaw to cut it. Using the template once again I made my baffles out of 3/4" mdf. I originally used …

Hey guys, just thought i'd see if any of you were interested in checking out my progress walling my spare car. It's a 1995 Hyundai Excel (Accent for CAN/USA) hatch, pretty boring and poorly made car, but it's good enough to keep, cheap enough to sacrifice to be walled. Here's what the car looks like (not actual car) Had it for 5 months as a daily driver, i've had the front stage installed, battery and elec partially done, and a temp sub setup installed. But now it's time to go all out and have some fun with the subs. Sometime this week i'll be recieving two Mach5 IXL.18's, and the plan calls for 12cubes ported @ 30hz for some nice lows. Quick parts list for anyone who's …

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.

Started the Highs for my car. Subs and sub amp have been removed. right now is just highs and mids. CDA-9887, Sundown SAX-100.4, Kicker RS6.5 comps. Now i'm trouble shooting the setup. And the sundown is running hot. So its been an intersting day. sigh was taken with a cell phone. so quality is pretty crappy

I'm building this for another forum member, it is 2.3 ft^3 tuned to 32hz for a Maw 15

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

I have a 2005 Honda CR-V EX. This is the stuff I want to get for my system: Head Unit - JVC KD-AVX-44 Sub - 15"Fi Audio Q- Series Front - Phoenix Gold RSD 65CS Rear - Phoenix Gold RSD 6.5 Amp (Sub) - Alpine PDX 1.1000 Amp (Interior) - Phoenix Gold RSD500.4 Enclosure - Made by DCole ( someone from another message board) Install Kit - ??? What is a good Install Kit to use? I know I should use 1/0 guage wires for the kit. I was looking at KnuKoncept Kits, but the one I wanted is sold out. I emailed the company and they said a new kit should be out by the end of the month. So I may end up going with that. Is there anything I left off that i'm going to need? I know I…
