Awesome vid Mark.

Very nice Enclosure design/build Work Sir. Wish I could hear it !!!

Damn I wish I had time to take my truck apart like this.

Gotcha

Nice work on the trim rings. cnc / shop bot cut or hand cut ???

Excellent Read.

I understand and I’m tuned in. Hopefully I can update my build log soon.

For “now” testing purposes, you can get a bath towel and put it on your dash. Has the same effect, just covers up your defroster vents. I’ve always learned it best to keep your EQ flat when tuning. Then listen to judge’s opinions and EQ from there. I know, it’s your ride, but if you compete, they have the ears you need to cater too. Just saying. Also, be careful when cutting and boosting left and right separation. You can easily loose information on the left side of the stage and image. Seen this happen many times in different vehicles. Use time alignment only if possible. I’m sure you already know most of what I’m saying here, I’m still working with my tweeters in the F150. Just throwing shit out there ... LOL again, good luck !!!

Going back and looking at your pics, I would suggest one of those custom fit dash covers for your specific vehicle. You’d be surprised what it does for your sound stage. I bought one for my son’s stock 2017 Cruze hatch and was really impressed with the difference it made. Anyways, just a suggestion. Good luck !!!

Nice work Mark.

What’s up man ?? I’ve been gone awhile and reading up. Please refresh my memory. Are you using time alignment with this setup ?? Nice review on the SSA products.

More power makes for better driver control.

What is the enclosure tune ??

Astro van have windows (commuter style) or commercial style (no windows) ???

Guess I missed it, but what vehicle are we working with here ??? I would assume a hatch back ... ???

Awesome Vid Mark. bad ass drivers for sure !!! Wish I had the depth for a pair in the F150.

Just by looking at the pics, and being it's a coax driver, I believe it's safe to assume that's the tweeter's crossover network. Looks like a great use of space to me not needing an external device near the unit. I'd be willing to bet they would sound really nice in a set of doors if they haven't been beat up from wear and tear. Hook them up somewhere and let them jam !!!

A few things with audio, but more updates with the truck is done. Front stage will be a 2 way active setup, and we are making plans for a single 8 (hopefully a pair) behind the rear seat. I will get around to posting again asap. All work and no play at the moment.

Wow !!! Nice driver !!!

Nice equipment roster !!! Awesome work Aaron. As usual ...

I use to love watching the "crazy 8s" port wars competitions. Watch a single 8 try and bust up the 60s and 70s !!!

To be honest, there ain't much more you can do with that product. Most Sound Quality gurus that try it normally replace it after their first competition season with it. Just Saying

With very limited info on your system, it's difficult to answer some questions correctly. What I get out of this so far is that the only thing I know you have is a factory head unit and a Rockford processor. What type of vehicle and what you've installed / changed out so far would help.

Wow, that thing is a dinosaur. Nothing you would want to play outlaw bass with, but should be really nice musical !!! I'd love to hear it.

Nice drives.
