June 6, 201114 yr Author Anyone want to see my designs thus far? Albeit they are a bit amateur, and I haven't had the time do determine Cu. ft. in the enclosure area, but here they are! From rough draft to current!Thoughts? Opinions?
June 6, 201114 yr Looking pretty good man. Can't say that I've seen a separate chamber for the equipment. You should do some 12v fans to keep it cool in there.
June 6, 201114 yr Author Definitely, Since the box is gonna be wrapped in black imitation leather, should I go with fans with regular chrome grills or black chrome, assuming I can find any?
June 6, 201114 yr Im in Hernando right below Memphis! Nobody even knows what sundown is haha they laugh at me when I recommend that brand, they think it's garbage. I'll show them:)
June 6, 201114 yr I'd go black. It would look more sleek IMO. If you can't find black ones you could always just spray them with some rustoleum or something
June 6, 201114 yr Author Im in Hernando right below Memphis! Nobody even knows what sundown is haha they laugh at me when I recommend that brand, they think it's garbage. I'll show them:)Well, that's like how Memphis is 'oooh' and 'aaaah' to all the kids around here. I had one actually ask me to trade his power-reference for my sundown... I lol'd, and preceded to hurt his feelings after he got pissy and said that his 10's could outhit my one 12. He tucked his tail between his legs and cowered away. All on a track that I made. Hmmm... I think I'll stay with Sundown. I'm currently saving up to get a 1500D (any gen) and to upgrade my alt from 90a, to 120+, then I'll use some of my spare 4g hotwire from a previous setup and upgrade my big 3. After the box, and all of what I have planned, He could have 30 of those cheap Memphis 10's and I'll still blow his doors off. Not saying at all that it would hit 'One-ninety Dee Beeeez!!!' but it'll definitely sound better, and look better than his setup. The war has started!I'd go black. It would look more sleek IMO. If you can't find black ones you could always just spray them with some rustoleum or somethingI agree, although the standard chrome would offer a bit of a contrast from the all black. I plan to get my artist logo stitched into the lid for my power compartment, since the sub enclosure is going to be completely sealed.
June 6, 201114 yr Yea Haha I recently blew away a kid with 2 12 in Memphis pr's in prefab box on 1000 watts and all i had was a spare 12 I had layin around in a box, I built on 200 watts he about pissed his pants. But soon I will be gettin a btl 18 on an aq3500d and then I'll see about his reaction!
June 6, 201114 yr Author That'll get his attention for sure. Just remember not to bump in residential areas, because I'm all for a LOUD setup, but if I'm relaxing and my windows start shaking... I'm ready to shoot first, ask questions later. Gotta be a golden rule somewhere about that... At any rate, I wonder if I could upgrade my V1 with V2 soft parts....
June 6, 201114 yr Haha yea for sure about the windows rattling! But lucky for me I live away from people;) so I can bump as loud as possible and not hurt Anybodys feelings. And switching softparts sound like helluva idea. Ask around!
June 6, 201114 yr Im in Hernando right below Memphis! Nobody even knows what sundown is haha they laugh at me when I recommend that brand, they think it's garbage. I'll show them:)I was in Memphis a couple of weeks ago at the USACI Big Daddys Pawn Tripple Point Event ...Small, But GREAT event ... Was any of you there ???
June 6, 201114 yr Author No sadly enough. I would like to attend an event or two, and see what all classes there are and learn as much as I possibly can. Competing is not ANYWHERE in my near future, but I would like to be well prepared, and to have fun

June 9, 201114 yr Welcome. Im from Olive branch, MS right below Memphis as well.I would like to see you at the USACI Jackson Regional event in August ...
June 9, 201114 yr Author Thanks guys, Apparently I'm not the only southern fella that likes to turn heads. The other day I was getting me a 6 pack on my way home from work (it was a helluva day, let me tell you) and there was a couple that looked to be in an argument that pulled up next to me as I was leaving. I got in my car, fired it up, I heard the subtle thump thump of my amp cutting on, and it went BOOOM BOOOOM, and the couple nearly broke their necks turning around to look at me. Priceless! Wish I had a picture of their face.
June 15, 201114 yr Author THIS is what the Nightshade is going in - Well, as most of you remember, my LX sat for a LONG time... It's finally revived!!!Enkei RSF-2s ftw!Gutting and cleaning.... Eeergh!!
