Posted May 14, 200916 yr A Kenwood KDC-MP538U deck is going to be installed. Knu 4 gauge wires and the BIG 3 will be done in 4 gauge as well. Stock speakers are going to be kept. Sub box is 2.5 cubes net tuned to 32hz. User will be playing all types of music and this is for a daily set-up.
May 14, 200916 yr Author I should have corners rounded and the box completely sanded and primed maybe 2 times and the deeper depth white painted today.
May 17, 200916 yr Author box is done. the only left is deck to be installed and run all the wires to connect amp. I hope to finish everything by next week and start my own build as well.
May 17, 200916 yr Now hold on there with the pics, hehe.I've been pushin to get this install done so i can here these 4 8s. I'm curious on what it's gonna sound like.After that, he'll be gettin his setup goin. Crossin my fingers but we gonna try to get a decently high score with his upcoming setup with a single IA20 and a pair of 10" SSDs. I'm hopin for a 155 at least.... nah but seriously, i'm gonna try and get a 143 at least out of this setup.This 4 8 setup is strictly daily driver as stated before and I have absolutely no involvement with the setup so no numbers with this setup.
May 23, 200916 yr Author Everything is installed. The only thing we are waiting on is the pocket fill on top of the deck. We first had the speakers facing the trunk opening but it didn't sound as loud as he wanted so we flipped it around to face the back of the rear seats and its a lot louder. The deck is kinda hard to figure out at first but its easier now that I got a grip on it. It has a lot of features for being kinda cheap. Also, we made a little square hole for the rear usb connector right on one of the blocks next to the AC controls for better connecting and removing of a USB drive. I just need to fix up some paint spots on the front baffle and the corners. I'll get some pictures when I see him later today.
May 23, 200916 yr Author i don't have a good enough video recorder to do a video. It wouldn't matter. But like I said pictures will come soon.
May 24, 200916 yr u can use my phone.My phone can record up to 4hrs of video. I'm sure somewhere in that 4hrs is somethin good to see,
May 25, 200916 yr Author I wanted to fix up some paint spots but he said he didn't care. He also wasn't patient enough so he kinda broke one of the pins on the right of the console.

May 25, 200916 yr Put your mind in the gutter.. way way deep in the gutter, oh and u gotta think gay too while doin this since this setup was for a guy.
June 21, 200916 yr Looks great!Well, now i can tell everyone in town that u got someone Ate.. i mean Eight, hahahaha wowww shizzzon..i dig the set up cute..although i would love to see what it could dohint hint some numbers for the good people?how many watts are each sub getting? around 400 watts rms each?
June 29, 200916 yr Author thanks. if he gave me more time, I could fix up on the paint around the circles surrounding the subs. I used blue paint tape and it didn't help very much.
