Build Logs

I am starting my first wall build and need a little bit of guidence. The truck is a 1986 GMC S15 ext cab (2wd) The equpiment I'm using is 15" Alpine Type R The amp I'm getting is a two AQ 2200d I'm going to have the drivers wired to 1 ohm. What I really need help with is the building part of the project. I've never seen a wall in person or built one. I seen pictures online and have the grasp of it. So.. if a box builder could help me with the blueprints on my project I can get started. The kinda wall I want is a competition wall, so I was told.. It seems to be a sheet of wood from floor to celing with the port on the driver side.

Finally got where I wanted to be audio wise after a few years. I have had lots of setups but like this one the most. It is the most musical substage (at low volume) I have had yet. I'd like to thank everyone for their help and knowledge along the way. Official TL score on the dash with all windows down 152.6 @ ~44 The subs are Fi BTLs

I just posted a small intro on the new members thread and said I was going to post my build so hear are a bunch of pictures to bring you up to speed. I was out of audio for a long minute until I found a bunch of videos on YT and it got me fired up again. The game had changed a lot since I was into it in the late nineties. Before all this madness began I had an alpine 6.5" comp set and a single 12". It has grown into somewhat of a monster now and it continues to get better... Here is an outside pic to set this thing off. I am repainting it this summer. Matte black with a rhino lined roof lol Old doors new door build for a single 10" Window controls molded into door pan…

Ok, so Im sorta new to SSA and Ive been looking at alot of people build logs and I decided its time to wall my car. Ive already started and this project should get done within the next couple weeks. So heres the specs, 2 FI Q 15 fully loaded, box has 8.2 Cubes after displacement tuned to 33hz. Im open to any feedback and opinions but if your going to be a jack a$$ then dont bother posting, 1 more thing, Im 17 years old and im doing all of this myself with maybe the help of my friend so dont give me crap for being young I know 95% of what im doing, secureing the box to my car is the hardest thing for me, I was think get brackets shaped like this -|_|- from home depot, flat…

here is the wall build

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 …

Me and my brother have been working on a little project, thought you guys might like it... First off, the equipment. Four FI 15 inch BL subs, fully loaded. Powered by four Ma Audio HK802SX amps Fi BL on the left, MTX RFL in the middle and his MA 12s from last season This is where it all goes Little sound deadner, Dynamat and elemental mental design stuff Rebuilt the door panels to look a little better and hold two 6 1/2 distinct audios My favorite thing...custom ANL fuse holder Got a little more done today but didn't take any pics yet. I will keep ya all updated the best I can and we are open to any suggestions. Lee

Hello, Here is the car itself.... Here is my build log for my 2010 honda civic LX, when I bought this car I started with a pair of Alpine Type-E 10's in a prefab on an Alpine MRP-M500. Then I upgraded the door and rear speakers with Polk Audio DXI650's and an Alpine MRP-F300 which I also use in my current build. After that I moved to an AB XFL 15's on an Audio Technix AT1200.1d. This log will reflect my current state: DC Power 180 amp alternator XS D5100R under the hood Northstar NSB-AGM24M in the trunk Audio Technix 1/0 OFC run to the trunk Knukonceptz 1/0 OFC in the trunk Sky High Lugs and RCA's Alpine CDE-HD137BT Crscendo RTS-1 tweeters Sony mids Alpine-MRP-F…

Please post some Incriminator builds If you are using New IA Products. Thanks

In one of my intro threads I remarked it was like an old addiction. Seems as of late well for over 13 years I've mended my ways and laid down my desires for my family. What started as just a small system has resurrected the monster. I have a few goals intended for this system they are: 1. Create a clean install which is removable with minimum effort. After all this is our family car. 2. Target db level 145 3. Modular design to accept several boxes and yet remain SANITARY in installation. 4. Kid proof Covers to prevent kids from dropping stuff in ports (one reason the passive radiator is one of the designs) 5. Design for double the electrical draw. On hand purchased …

HERE YA GO

My wifes truck is a 98 Dogde Ram Sport, 3"lift 33" tires. Current system: Alpine 9885 RF power 6.5 coax (only off deck) RF P2 12 in 1ft^3 sealed center console Eclipse xa 1000 (sub amp) The plan: Alpine 9885 RF power 6.5 PG Tantrum 400.4 Mach 5 audio Mj 18 M 4dvc 6 ft^3 tuned to 32-35 hz (Hvae heard blowthoughs lower tuning?) PG Tantrum 1200.1 She listens to mostly R&B and Rap so I think this should make her happy for the time being. I'll upload pics as I can Weather and work will determine how quickly this gets done. as always I am open to any suggestions or comments. Thanks Chad

The Double Deez are out, no porno. :\ Now I'm gonna try a pair of JBL w15GTi's. If you missed the original build feel free and check it out here. Worst build ever! This is a straight drop in replacement, so things might not work out as planned. We'll just have to see what happens. I'm not looking to get louder, just looking for a cleaner sound Lets get started with some disassembly pics. Dang these fhawkers are heavy! A little side by side action. Those JBLs are wild looking fo sho! Side by side looking down at the cones. The DD have the edge on this one with the carbon fiber dust caps. With the tall-n-narrow surrounds the DD also look bigger. I ran out of daylight b…

some new vids with the rd audio d9 and 2 treo ssx 18's

Havent posted here in a while, but to say the least I am the proud new owner of the worlds loudest trailblazer. I bought it last week, with the subs still in it. I only got a Soundstream TX1.2600 running to (4) DC Level 5 18s, but will soon get (2) DC 9ks. Heres some pics of her. And a few videos so far. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcJIDOk-o3U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngNkofA8Skk

So far my box is pretty much complete. I used the recommended build for the optimal ported . I adjusted a few recommendations in the build as this is my first ever. I cant wait to place in my X-Con!

hey fellas. so I work 6 days a week. I don't have a lot of free time so this will be a bit slow so sorry for that. I have some pics of a build I did May of 2014 that I'm going to post right now. I'm planning on rebuilding it completely. so here's some pics of what ive got going on right now.

Volt Meter Nice voltage huh? Went ahead and foamed while i had everything apart (btw i know in the pic it says 2008, guess the camera isnt setup with right date)

Enclosures will be tuned to 35hz ports will be external and 3". Plans are to sink all components in the hatch floor, still being able to retain the spare tire! Ports will run underneath the floor and come but will come …

No details just wait as the pictures roll. If you know anything of my previous logs i dont hold back but this time i am doing a collabo with jay-c76.

Howdy all, I finally took the time to order all the parts for Zaph Audio's Bargain Mini Build. I will be constructing the crossovers and the boxes and throwing it all together. I will say first that my build will probably not be the prettiest ever. I actually only get time to work on this when I travel back to my hometown for a weekend. However, I am just trying to get some nice sounding speakers together and hopefully this will be my gateway to bigger and better builds. First off are the components Next is the crossover mock up. I did this to get the correct sizing for the crossover so it will fit in the relatively small box. I was very surprised about the size and hef…

My current build can be found here. Decided to try out a ZCON. I probably would not have bought one but I bought this used at a good price. USPS is holding the driver at their facility so hopefully tomorrow I can pick it up. Really going a different route with the enclosure as well. I picked up a few 8" aero ports from Adrian_D Enclosure specs : 4.11^ft tuned at 35hz The port opening is literally right beside the sub. I am very curious how this will work out. I suspect some funky things will happen, we will see. Port will be semi external and sub will be mounted inverted. I will eventually be powering it with my DC Audio 2.0K that I've had in my closet for four months. J…

Hi SSA guys. My friend and I just recently picked up a very cheap car and we are going to turn it into a Zombie Apocalypse Vehicle (ZAV). All of the modifications will be done by hand using readily available materials. This is purely for fun and everybody's enjoyment. First things first, every Zombie car needs a sound system!! So this is what we have done. Searched amazon for some of the cheapest 15" subs we could have shipped. We came upon the Absolute USA SN 2000 subs. $30 shipped each. And to make it even better, found a iPod docking deck for $27 shipped. After that we went and got some wood. 3/4 OSB had the best price. Used left over wire and fuses from previous bui…

I picked up the Sundowns and the Eclipse 8443 back in December and threw in a temporary set up. Now that I'm not having my life sucked away by a manipulative bitch, I'm finally getting the install completed. I'm rebuilding the RL-i boxes to be slightly larger and not have airleaks and be more attractive. Side panels will be build into which the amps will be flush mounted. Hopefully, I'll also get a chance to build a cover panel for my rear deck this week. On to teh pics! Eclipse 8443: Some boxes: Sundown Audio SAZ-1500D: Sundown Audio SAX-100.4: Temp. Install: New boxes for the 8s coming together: That's all I have done so far. More to be posted as I complet…

This build is a labor of love. My father encouraged me to do what I love no matter what other people think of it. When I was 14 I got a ride home from a high school guy that worked for my dad and he had 2 12" pioneer subs in his Grand Am. I was hooked! I wanted everything to have bass. I am going to be 32 this year and my father has fallen ill. He is currently in the hospital with pneumonia and a pulmonary embolism. Laying there on the hospital bed he asked me what my plans were. Thinking he was giving me the life speech... I stumbled out some words about how work is going well and how I've been saving up money now that I have a car I paid for in cash with no paym…
