    Welcome. People on here are really good to deal with for trades and sales. I bought a 200 watt 2 channel for $15!! You will love this place.
  2. Thanks !! Nah, its still in its box in my garage. I want to get the trunk finished up, then I'll move on to finishing up the kicks so they look nice, then I need to deaden the doors, rear deck and everything behind the backseat that hasn't been cut out and make mounts for the Sundown E8's that are replacing the stock door speakers. Once that is all set, I'll wire it all up and get the head unit in hopefully. I don't think I could stand seeing that box with the Alpine in it everyday without putting it in.lol Your glass work is nice, dude. How long do you think it'll be until you can put a big, fat DONE stamp on this puppy?
  3. looking awesome. Do you got the HU in yet?
  4. guess I gotta start saving my pennies
  5. how long will they stay this price??//
  6. lol i flipped the horn to change wich side the port was on just playing around with things before i build a new box so i can keep my seats up...... the sound of this box is great though digs down lowwwww...... and solid Oh, I just thought you were trying to be edgy,lol. At first glance I was like, "what the hell is an 'ess'?" Then I was like ,"oh it says 'ssa', but upside down.lol lol ESS haha off brand jkjk next build: 13 funky pups in a wall.jk

  8. why are they upside down?
  9. update: Got the adapters cut for the 6". My grandpa had an old wood panel and his neighbor cut it out with a scroll saw. I pulled my door panel off for the measurements and to test fit the woofer for the comps. I accidentally disconnected the cord for the inside handle. I didn't notice until my grandma tried to open my passenger door from the inside. No big I'll just pull the panel back off and reconnect it. It still works from the outside. I'm gonna get some pics of the equipment up soon. My sister has my camera.
  10. I think it is 50 posts. I have not checked the rankings in a while. almost there. Although I saw a guy with 77 whose still said newbie
  11. How long does it take to not be a Newbie anymore?
  12. sorry about the double post guys. silly keyboard
  13. it depends. Hopefully by Christmas I can put a big DONE stamp on this baby for good. The MTX's are not that bad, plus removing the rear fill will open 2 spots that will allow the bass to flow into the cabin a little better. I know nothing of building boxes. I am trying to spend as efficiently as possible., though. It seems like a lot of people on here are impatient and will go out and buy some $500 subs because they can't wait for their $1000 subs to get here quick enough. Then a month later, they buy the $1000 ones. Even if you sell em, you don't get all your money back, and the impatience cost you $200 or more extra then just waiting. I have had the same setup (excluding my current HU; borrowing that from a friend) since 2006. I will probably end up keeping this next evolution for a while. After these upgrades, I'm not throwing anymore money at the Camry. It is my daily driver, and I'm gonna start saving to build a drag car. Not db drag, either. The speed kind. 240sx with a Chevy LS1 and sixth speed tranny PS. I appreciate your encouragement .

  15. So I'm gonna make one anyway, so why not start now. The current equipment: Kenwood Excelon KDC-X692 Pioneer 3 way 6x9's(4)(1 in each front door and 2 in the rear deck) Bazooka EL500.1 Crappy Scoshe wiring for sub amp 2 MTX RoadThunder 12's(sealed pre-fab box) Excluding the Headunit, everything is not as good as I want. I have 3 shipping boxes in my trunk right now that contain: TEAC 2x100 amp(bought for $15 from Spy. Thanks dude) Phoenix Gold RSD6CS 6" Components KnuKonceptz Kolossus Fleks 4 Gauge 4 Amplifier Installation Kit I hope to make the speaker adapter(for the 6" to fit in the door) and install the comps pretty soon. I'm also removing rear fill. After that, its time for the HU: Kenwood DNX-6140 (its $779.99 with shipping, and I've got about $650 in savings)(one more paycheck*fingers crossed) From there I start the slow process of saving for my final stage: a good quality 15" sub(maybe ICON) a 1500 watt or more mono amp good wiring for sub amp Big 3
  16. when you talk to real world friends and mention SSA users and their builds as if they are old buddies, even if you have never met or talked to them.

  18. nice. What is the ETA on the finished product?
  19. I am friends with dvalue and he heard about from Drew Jones(Bassahaulic)
  20. 725=shipping weight 590= sub by itself
  21. I work in a pharmacy and filled a prescription for a guy who lives in my old house a couple of weeks ago
