Posted November 25, 200915 yr I finally got my box painted and put in the truck. This is my first FI product as I did a lot of online reading before settling on a BL. I've had Kicker 12 L7s, Pioneer SPL 10s and old school Kickers. This BL by far is the loudest sub I've had and it hits the lows very well and still has very good musical abilities. I am very impressed with it so far. I set the amp with a DMM and did the big 3 in 1/0. I had dimming before with just the mid/high amp (zr240 on the Focal polyglass 6.5 comps). No dimming now at all. I tuned the box to approximately 33 Hz. It is right at 4 cubes and its the first time I've done anything with fiberglass. It has 5 yards of mat and 2 gallons of resin and 2 more of rage gold. Painted with hot hues DuPont paint and 4 coats of clear. Its in a 2005 Mercury Mariner. I still have to come up with a better amp rack, but here are some pics. Thanks for all the information that I've learned on here to make this happen. I recommend FI to anyone now.The box still roughTest fitPrimerThe box bolted in placeThe sub bolted in
March 22, 201015 yr Author Got to put it on the meter today for a little testing. I found that windows up hit higher numbers. I got it up to 150.5 at 47 Hz.

March 25, 201015 yr Dude that green looks like the color i did my winter wheels in. I LOVE it. And the green dustcap. Nice work for a first fiberglassing
March 25, 201015 yr It looks great, my wife loves that green (what's the color code on that green anyhow?) and congrats on the score.... and just think, as you break in the sub it will only play lower and LOUDER..... btw hopefully I can start a thread with a similar title soon myself... lol
