box made?

thanks ricki! you da man!

Vehicle: 1992 volvo 240 brick power FTW! Electrical:Big 3 under the hood, Four runs of 1/0 gauge, custom 275 alternator, Agm superstart under the hood, Two kinetik 2400s Driver: SSA zcon dual 2ohm's Bass Amp: Crescendo 3500bel 4channel amp: MB quart Q.150.4 Components: 6.5 polk MM's times two! Headunit: Clarion vx500 Whole point of this build was a high powered individual single 18 driver tuned low which in my eyes is 32hz which was musical so the only driver that could for fill my needs was a ssa zcon! The front end of the sexy BEAST! Thats a fresh paint job 20years later FRESH! Onto the build the we have a 12cubic feet gross box DOUBLE MDF all around except bottom! Ports doubled up also! Net volume for the sub is 8.02cubic with 130inchs of port area tuned at 32hz! Just slapped the wood together all gluey! Just finished working on the port time to silicone **** ho fill her up with all that white good stuff! Test fitting the box previous box was to big when i was building it. Dimensions of previous box fit inside the wagon but would not actually get inside the wagon because...the enginers who designed the hatch opening werent that smart ....starts at 48width ends with 38-37 width at the top of the hatch. sweden FAIL! But this sexy sucker fits like a used and abused ho! another caulk photo lol just for you caulk whores! Buddy decided make it more interesting start his box build at "The SAME DAM TIME" who needs a extra hand pshhh.... All the glue squirting out i dont play around when it comes building box's i want a bond between my wood. also believe wood squirts so if you play if it be cautious for the after math!!! when it comes down to it my moto is always BONDO that HO that shut her up! no one likes a leaky box specially after using shat tone of screws smashing the mdf together for a strong bond! ****You smell that i think im high from the fumes...no its just braincells leaving my brain**** Time to make a hole 16.75 be exact! Something i have to admit i really love bondo i think we have a bond! finally got the hole cut out went threw to jigs my harbor freight one took a shit on me had to curb stomp that bish! omg a spider is near my CAULK! primer the inside of the box just had some sitting around big believer on makshuring no little holes leak air!! better look at some color in the box then bare wood that just looks naked to my eyes! WHITE WALLS i think i built a crazy house! All you see is whiteness, its the twilight zone all over again. Ordered some light swag for the wag ebay FTW!, Little break from the build 55watt HID green headlights low beam from ddtunning. 5050 300led strip 16.4feet from ebay green 18$ shipped for a tri led waterproof could not pass up that deal! is it a ufo or a plane NO its a wagon! not just any wagon! A custom 240 wagon! i never would of thought of putting underglow on this wagon lol but it was cheap and fun little project. Lights inside where previous installed and ordered from ozium, Looks really bright in real life and NO strips showing anywhere all hidden. some grill flash show them teeth off! that was a little side track trip for all you picture whores. the box was done so all i had to do was give it a good sanding and throw some paint on it, i was feeling glossy black. I sanded it sprayed some primer on it and sanded it again starting rolling some paint on it and started to realize some spots where not getting covered the paint just would not stick! i said F*** it i want hear this monster it doesnt look absolute shit its bearable for the time being. Any ideas please chime in. Didn't mask out the port wont see it anyways side port. the box is done for the time being till i redo the finish on it. photo of my fail box with two 18inch zcons in it 4.5cubes net each sub after port with 175port area tuned at 40herts. Was really peaky and major port and box flex sounded LIKE GARBAGE nothing to do with the zcons it was my improper building and thought process at the time. Enclosure is most important thing when it comes to the performance of the driver never forget that if it doesnt fit go smaller! plane and simply i learned it the 150$ way. on the bright side some one is going to be a proud owner of a zcon 18 cause im selling one of them no need for two if i cant utilize them both. took that box out and used it for the stash area for all or tools for the box build lol served a great purpose for that so much space to work with 9cubes to be exact. Temp 18 box ughhhh so small and blah! Time to throw the real monster in the shagging swag wagon. Little insight at the power behind this conspiracy. not that clean looking specially the two rca's with masking tape on them but its just for reference not to use them since they dont work anymore. The speaker bar with a bundle of wires four runs of 1/0 gauge not that easy to make it look pretty but i think it looks tamed. Another great thing i can fit another 2400 in the middle if i ever needed to fit nice and snug Threw the box in and wired it up OMG is thing bad A*S. Loudest i ever had in the wagon hits the lows like a monster and all other notes makes you laugh at the things it can do to your favorite song! Hard to see going take some more photos on a bright day just started feeling like fall down here in the south now..... well thats i always like pointers or insight on what yall think i want take offence to anything crazy!

thats nasty and unique. Keep going ham!

i say brace on a need to brace basis test it out first. get some basic bracing though.

lol...yeah i think your battery is dipping to low check that out quick!

he's running my hifonics hifi 2500, hooked him up to the wagon to the crescendo bc3500 at1ohm to test the new enclosure we built lol was nasty loud for two 12's on the nendo!

hifi series.

stick at 1ohm and still watch your voltage cause my guess you can get that sucker down to low 12volts with no problem. i know i can at 1ohm with my crescendo after 30secs of constant bass!

....wont be enough i have 4runs of 1/0gauge two 2400 kinetic in the back with 275 amp ho upfront when i ran my crescendo 3500 at .5ohm nasty voltage drop scared me back down to 1ohm much better on electrical now!

Xcons are like orgasms on my ears...somedays i wish i had both xcons and zcons only have the z'sss love them both so much.

Price dear sir?

I use it love it took the aggravation part of the first step of designing

Get somee dimensions base it off on your space. Budget recommend single 15chamber if he can aquire the space

Looks good bro

Swift's back at it again! HELLZ YEAH!

im a big believer on the AP budget amps 120$ for a amp that puts out a good bit of power. Read the review dont know if its a trusted source but interesting on what he did. http://www.vminnovat...Amplifier-.html Pro and con review.

18 to big for your taste she's a beaut? 18 zcon d2

yup smaller box tuned higher would beperfect for spl aspect!

this is whats in their at the moment box is way to small and port also... Uploaded with ImageShack.us

ok little late but still a photo lol ..worst box i ever made it was a jap slap project not any effort involved on this ugly sucka Uploaded with ImageShack.us

sup welcome big baller

Good choice on subs bro i ran a pair of bl 12's competing last year on a crescendo 3500 at 1ohm LOVED them! my electrical was a little similar had two kinetic 2400's in the back with two runs of 1/gauge to the rear. Voltage was not the best because i was having mounting problems with my alternator and just the alternator combined with the situation also bad combination different story. all depends on ohm rise and all kinds of stuff. 144db at 43hz was the loudest i ever scored.

Haha. There you go again talking about things you know nothing about. Just visit the SMD forum - they will let you know you can't even begin to determine the amount of port area required without knowing how big the box is going to be. And don't even think about doing over 16 sqin per cuft - that is reserved for SPL applications only. Oh - and less port = better lows, more port gives you better high bass. If you can't remember these basic rules, just download everyone's favorite calculator over there - it figures all this out for you. Just keep reading my friend, you're learning. I hope that was a joke. so who's the joker BKOLFO4? or 95Honda?

Thats good right because mine isnt near the small end at all.....lol l, so whatthe your saying is better to go big then small but just right inbetween if you can make it happen. Thats what i interputed.
