September 21, 201014 yr Author Welcome on The right forum !!!nice build.These DC subs look so small in your box ! I thought they were 10" subs, but no, you said 12".Looks like they slam hard !lol a lot of people think they are 10"s. i get that question at almost every show. then when i reconed them to 1ohm coils i thought rusty had sent me 10"s lol.thanks again for the welcome guys. people here pretty chill? hope its not at all like CA.com lol.
September 21, 201014 yr Nothing like CA.com, although if we some bull shit lie someone pulled out of their ass we will call them out
September 21, 201014 yr Welcome to SSA! I remember your build from SMD, looks great with the Crescendos. This place is very chill. Like Duran said, they will call you out for giving BS advice, so you will find a lot less misinformation here.
September 21, 201014 yr Author cool. ya, SMD is getting flooded with noobs and their advice while the experienced members have stopped caring. but i do know a lot of people on smd so its still fun.BTW, i just moved to nebraska from cali, so if there is anyone in lincoln nebraska on here, hit me up. i need to make some friends in this town lol.
September 21, 201014 yr Sweet box, at first i wasn't into it, but once you finished the stain and trim it's ballin'! Props on the build!Welcome to SSA!
