Build Logs

Ok so my cousin needed a new box so i made him one using the box calculator on the RE site and here it is... 3.25cubes tuned to 33hz here is the box in the truck forgot to take finishing pics and the amp pushing it Soundstream 1200.1 Stealth Xscorpion wiring

I'm kinda new to car audio. Right now I'm just running a sundown e8v3 on a boss armor 1500 which actually puts out the ammount I need. Anyway I really want to upgrade and be loud. I'm not about spl and hitting high dbs more about music and perceived loudness. I can work with about 3.5 cubic foot box. I'm considering either a fi q 18 or a fi bl 15. I just need advise on which would be better.

Ok.. im in need of some help... What is the best design for these subs... box or wall.. Will be in a 98 suburban.... im not going to build it myself so the specs can be included so i can share with the builder.... Thanks again

Im thinking i want a new air of dcon 12s but need some box plans or suggestions on how to build the box for the sub.... i want it to be a fast build cause im and impatient person so if someone has any box plans already for dual 12 dcons in a ported box.. could i bum them from you? if not my room i can work with is Height 21" Depth at bottom 28" Depth at top 20" Length 39" Any suggestion or help is much appropriated Thank.

updating progress..... doors and side panels and head liner have been sueded,most parts have been spayed with chrome illusion and final wiring is being done now........

This build has been a long time in the making, it’s had a lot of setbacks but now that things are finally getting interesting I figured I’d make a build log. I’m gonna get straight to the chase here’s the current plan for equipment.

As you read in the title and description I'm getting a Fi Car audio BL 15 and just need suggestions on what options I should get and dimensions on a box that I should build. I've got a 1994 extended cab F-150 and in the back have appx. 18x24 for the base of the box and wanted to know how tall I should make the box and how big I should make the port to tune it to 32 Hz.

This is my third time posting this, so you may have already seen it. But I also want more feedback. It isn't a large build by any means, but its my first, and I'm completely satisfied. It isn't as loud as most of my friends (most have L7s, one has a MTX 9515, and another has a couple 15 inch MOJOs), but NONE of them can hit as low as loud as me. 12" DC Level 4 1.65 cubes tuned to 28 DD M1a 4ga. Stinger HPM wire I'll start off with what I posted a couple weeks ago, and follow up with how it stands now (or stood up until about 6 this afternoon). The car: CD3200 (sticking out about a cm. Damn shallow dash): Hidden knob: Look Ma! No Wires! 1.65 cubes tuned to 28 (prob…

Hello Guys Michael is my name I'm new here and, last month I bought a black 2001 VW Golf 4, 1.9Tdi, 116hp, 6 speed, AJM, 129 000 miles, As an option: climate control, board computer, sports seats, leather steering wheel, armrest, electric windows, abs, esp, asr, oem spoiler etc. I put the original 17' GTI wheels Santa Monica.

my new install will be up this weekend. I've been debating on how to upgrade my monoblock power and my electical system and i came to some costly decisions but I think I'll be happy with them. I will still be using my BTL 15 dual 0.7 fully loaded but in a different enclosure. which is currently complete but I'm waiting to put pics up till saturday because my new toys all come in this week via fedex. New setup::: 15 btl fully loaded wired at 0.5 ohm ( due to impedance rise ) 3.5 cuft enclosure tuned to 35 hz. Mint Autotek Mean Machine 3000.1 wired @ .5 ohm brand new NSB 90 battery in the trunk.

Here is the link to my very first enclosure its on the last couple pages, I didn't wan't to clog up this forum so i'm just posting a link. Enjoy! 15" xcon house build?? - SSA Car Audio Forum - Page 3 Remember this is the first enclosure ive done so its not bad.

i just got this memphis mojo 2500 watt amp and i thinking of putting it on my 2 12 mtx 9500's dual subwoofers.. i know they rated at 1000 rms each but i heard people say they can take 1500 rms with no problem.. so tell me what you guys think.

I saw this build on DIYMA - excellent! This isn't my build but I envy the workmanship. Hopefully I can mimic the quality someday..... BTW the photography is excellent no auto modes here Gallery 1 Gallery 2 Gallery 3 Gallery 4 Gallery 5

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.

I got around to installing this little guy today and Im stoked. I used a 12 volt relay as that is what I have seen recommended. The install took a little longer than I wanted but overall it was pretty easy. The blue matches my truck and the illumination isnt too bright. I ran the power wire to the amp terminals to get a more accurate reading. The voltmeter is sitting in the old factory stereo location where it was swapped out for a cd pocket that the cds always fall out of. Piece of shit! It fits perfect and i like it recessed so its not blaring the light all over the cab too much. Very pleased with it though and want another for my Geo.

Here is the end result of my bug build for my store here at 1507. Hope you like it taking it to a car show in the morning. Hope you guys like it. Turned out ok for spray paint. Manager decided not to pay for painting it.

Ok I so I bought this truck a month and ago. It is a 2007 ram quad cab 1500. Basic 17" wheels and base stereo with a powerseat. I bought the 20" wheels and tires that you see on it. The wheels were $325 for the set. I work for a car dealership and got the tires for $500. 275/55/20. My plans are: 1. stereo system 2. lower it 3. cold air intake 4. Just in the mean time take the nerf bars off and all the badges are removed. Oh yeah the system is in my signature but here ya go.

This one isn't as detailed as my soccer build log... idek if i showed final photos of that lol *Off Build* I recently just finished an 82,000 square foot football field in Scottsdale Arizona.. Heres a few pictures. (not shown in photo) -Done. This is a 88.000 square foot football field in Douglas Arizona for some high school. We've been really busy so i don't have much of any photos yet, but i took a couple videos. We've only been working for 1 day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGDvzBLAmHI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GJnnzA_aMQ

alright, so just after I get everything into the rocky, I find out that my dad might be getting his money from his dads IRA this coming week, and buying a newer Nissan Frontier, which would then make me the owner of a 92 Nissan Hardbody king cab so that I can sell my rocky and F150 and use the money to build a shed. (I work for them maintaining their rentals so I store a LOT of crap at my house (tons of paint, big tubs of paint supplies, plumbing parts/tools, electrical, etc...) anyways, I could siphon a bit of the money from the vehicle sales plus regular income for a build. I would once again reuse the Pioneer P600UB, maybe reuse the infinity 475a amp, and scrap everyth…

Hey guys i need help with building this box so i get the right air space . The dimmensions i have for space is 25 long 13.5 tall and 16 wide. I am going to put a ssa gcon 15d4 sub in there. I want it to look like http://s1150.photobu...rent=subbox.jpg. Its just a crappy paint scetch but you get the picture haha. Any help would be awesome Thanks JD

Is there an admin that can assist. I want to start this build thread, but the field where I type is all screwy, and it says I can only upload 1.09MB

Here is a few pics now that im done. Finally got this damn cam. The alt bracket had to be bent out of the way but it worked. The grounds on the frame are welded on bolts cause I thouht it would be easier. This alt is a BEAST! Thank you Mechman! My power is incredible right now! I hope the regulator isnt set too high. I never touched the adjustment screw and installed it how it was. I thought it came set for you between 14.4-14.9. Is that right? My gauge never gets to 14. It was always over 14 at start up before, but now its just a litle more. Before at 3/4 volume I could get the batt LED light to come on within 5-7 seconds of play. Now...now is a different story.
