  1. When I open threads, only the first post shows, and I have to click 1 by 1 to view replies. Can I change a setting so all is shown in order?
  2. I love what youre doing, I'm in the same...I'm no SQ pro, but I'm doing a 3 way active front stage and tried to incorperate aiming and such.
  3. damn, I was hoping to get away with it...I have yet to add a third layer of rings, more bondo, then I'll be putting firewall over that, then finally sludge. The whole interior will be coated like that....everything will be wood filled behind with foam, then bondo'd, then firewall, then sludge...so the whole cabin will be rigid, air tight, and dampened. and Im not known for my finess...just functionality
  4. thanks, for now it will be mostly old pics, with this south dakota weather, and since I blew the motor on the Hyundai, progress is slow...but it gives me time to save. I work for a company making credit cards..maybe I should make myself one with a million max eh? That'd speed things up nicely.
  5. yeah, I got a sweet deal on the red tops though...so I hope with all that bank with a cpl HO alts, Ill get buy. I hope the aiming and everything is right, cuz there's no fixing and adjusting it...I could use more ring spacers I suppose to tweak the aiming, but I hope its right on as is. I suppose I can skip the almost automatic reverseing the polarity on the far tweet? I am all about the LSQ! I enjoy watchin the SPL burps as much as anyone, and I'd love to sit in some seriouse SQ seats some day, but for me, I want to have great sound whether I'm sitting in the driveway with my eyes closed drooling, or I'm blowin off steam and showin off with the knob cranked (not in residential areas of course)
  6. took out photos of previous projects, starting a new thread for that
  7. stuffing, note separate chamber for 4.5's sealed off with tweeter from 6.5's i wish i had more airspace for the front stage, I wanted to port the 6.5's at 40Hz (crossover low point 50Hz) but not nearly enough, so sealed, damped, and "see's" more air. mach wall to get ideas/spacing. My biggest wall influence is obviousely Pete "HexiBase" Kuliki, with his dual 15" Ava's in a folded rear horn. I can't touch his mathmatic skills, so i'm simply ported with a lot of airspace and low tuning...cuz i love 20HURTZ. never use bondo in large doeses over large areas...it will crack. But here's the most worked on area, most expensive area, so far NO airleaks anywhere when I'm done. This will yield the most dB out of everything...air pressure.
  8. I wish more people would share the step by steps...I love Steve meade, cuz not only is he a top notch builder I look up to, he SHARES. SPL'ers in general (not hating, I understand!) hate to give "trade secrets", but that's what we're here to do...share! I'm glad you find my sloppy looking work interesting..and rest assured, it is solid, just ugly. A friend had a program to make the cartoonish look..I wish I could have gotten it from her. yeah, heather's my daughter...and beautiful she is, thanks. Take your daughter out there, she'll love spendin time with daddy no matter what you do, but she'll grow up just like you, showin the boys how it's done
  9. I originally had 2 Ascendant Audio Avalanche 15's, and I tried to buy HexiBase's 2 XX-Colossus...but only got 1, so i resold the amp, and lost out on the subs in a bad recone situation. my most recent pic of the front stage/dash board...bondo'ed. I'm NOT sanding it smooth, I'm adding Firewall first, then Sludge, and making that ROUGH and unpainted (ugly) too in the name of SQ. Ever seen an anechoic chamber? http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&a...nechoic+chamber driver side passenger makin MDF rings speaker cutouts first rings for 4 6.5's (god I love midbass) FR125S rings and Vifa's too
  10. So far I have: Hyundai Accent GT: gutted, stuffed with 65 cans of expanding foam, 14 gallons of bondo that need removed from the windows and redone by welding sheetmetal instead. 320lbs of 3/4"mdf for the false floor, ceiling, doors, roof, dashboard, and subwoofer chamber/wall. I had 5 1gallon buckets of Spectrum Firewall...sold 2, trying to sell the rest, and a 5 gallon bucket of Spectrum Sludge...trying to sell that too. 6 Optima Red tops...getting 2 more. An Audio Control 6Xs, getting a second one when i get the crossovers so I have 2 bandpassed signals and 1 HP, all at 24dB/oct, then using deck/sub amps to cross the subs. 2 Vifa XT25TG30 Ring Radiator Tweets, a KX200.2 to run them 4.5kHz on up, 2 Adire Audio FR125S's and a KX350.4 to run them at 8ohm, 4...yes FOUR Adire Audio Extremis 6.4's and a KX850.4 to run those...massive overkill...I like deep loud throaty vocals for Pac. I've removed the whole cooling system, and maintained the mounting hardware and belt for the AC compressor to fit 1 of to HO alternators..prolly Iraggi. I've built most of the dash from 3/4"MDF, including the front stage that is aimed and staged. I removed everything unecessary and that will cause air leaks to the exterior...so the dashboard will be filled with expanding foam, I maintained only the heater and took all vents off...1 hole that will be plugged during burps. I plan on building a large dual chamber sub wall/enclosure with 6 cubes per sub @20Hz...yes 20HurtZ...and i'm not changing that, hate all you want. I will most likely do 2 SDX15's, but I am considering 18's...if I can find any 18" XBL^2 driver with 30+mm Xmax. I will be getting 2 KX2500.1's, 1 per sub. Way down the road, since all that equipment is over 1500lbs, air ride, ground effects/body kit, and it's gonna get painted Rhapsody Purple...so dark it looks black from a distance or when it starts getting dark. Deck will come much later, see whats best at that time.
  11. Like the 06' XXX I just can't get enough, too new
  12. Anyone have any links? Thanks.
  13. It's been down for at least a few days. I've been checking here to see if this was news, or if they closed it down since they sell outside their site now. Apparently it's news.
  14. I finally got to cutting out the speaker holes, this is just the skeleton...I will be making 3/4" MDF rings and sloping them out and much more. 4 Adire Audio Extremis 6.4 run off Kicker KX850.4 __ 50Hz-450Hz 2Adire Audio FR125S 4.5" full rangers of a KX350.4 __ 450Hz-3.5kHz 2 Vifa XT25TG30 1" Ring Radiator tweets off a KX200.2 __ 3.5kHz on up 2 Audio Control 6XS for 24dB with 2 bandpassed.... Will have 2 CSS SDX15's in 7cubes each @ 20Hz...walled off 2 Crossfire VR4000D's
