Budget Build, It is going to take awhile to get everything sorted out but right now this is my plan. 

Green = Decided

Red = Undecided

 

1 Pioneer 80-Prs (active)

1 Crescendo 1100.4 - On Subs

1 Soundstream rubicon 2.600 - On Mids

1 Stetsom 200.2 or Lanzar VCT 4ch - On Highs

 

2 Crescendo ft1s

2 Crescendo 6.5s

2 Crescendo 10s or 8s

4 SSA Dcon 15s in a slide-in wall. tuned between 32-35. Around 170in of Port.

 

1 Mechman 270-320amp Alt

2 Diehard platinums @ front

2 HC1200 @ amps

1 Stinger voltage meter

Audiotechnix 0g

Audiotechnix 12g

Audiotechnix Premium Rcas

Audiotechnix 80mil

 

Eventually I'll switch from the Dcons to something bigger, but for now 4 Dcons is the plan. Thats the reason, some of my options are a little bit much compared to the rest of the build. 

Suggestions, Advice, constructive criticism is welcome

 

Sand these a little more, prime, paint, and These will be going on my wall and the surrounding area. Going to be in typical SSA colors. (red, white, black)

 

The design isn't finished, gonna switch it up a bit. But it gives you an idea.

I'm not a big fan of audiotechnix 0 gauge wire or their deadner. I would prefer knu wire and sds for all my needs.

Tuned in for build. Btw the ssa cut outs look great.

Ill be tuned in for this one! Ohh btw I have a c1100.4 for sale never used. Also 2 10 crescendo pwx mids which were never used too. Let me know if your interested.

Thanks guys, Ill look into knu 0g and im not sure at all the route im going to go with sound deadener. Thats going to be a huge undertaking considering the age of my truck.

 

 On another note, Might be switching to 6 SSA Dcon 15s! trying to squeeze enough port in atm.
Buying the amps and front stage are last in my priority atm unfortunately. 

Box built first, then subs, then amps, then front stage and deck.

 

 

Also any way to edit the original post..?  the edit button disappeared.

Why crescendo 1100.4 why not a bcc2000?

Why crescendo 1100.4 why not a bcc2000?

Because I could have used it on the mids and highs for when I upgraded.

But my plan has changed.

 

Doing 6 dcons, and I'm not sure what amp(s) I'm going to use now.

New Design coming together, all I know is 6 Dcons are gonna get loud or die trying!

Also decided on the Sundown 2500d to power these little beasties.

 

6 dual 4 Dcons wired in parallel down to 1.33ohm 

2500w / 1.33ohm = 1879w / 6 = 313w each. perfect.

Nice internal bracing! That wall has serious authority.

Yes, Props to Alton for his great design so far!

Cant thank him enough for the help hes done.

are you doing a B-Pillar or C-Pillar wall?

are you doing a B-Pillar or C-Pillar wall?

 

The original plan was a C-pillar, but there wasnt enough room, so I switch to B-pillar.

Kinda sucks to lose almost all of my seating but I think its gonna be worth it.

Pictures are going to start being posted, build has officially started!

Unboxing pictures probably tonight or tomorrow.

Nice!!! New alt!!!

Tuned in for this build.

Nice!!! New alt!!!

thanks, I'm pretty excited to see the difference in my voltage on my current setup.

 

Tuned in for this build.

Hopefully we can get it goin pretty quick. thanks nem!

Love the design!!!! Can't wait to see this thing.

Thanks man, Alton is a great guy, talented for sure.

 

 

 

Slightly larger then I expected, very nice look. 260 amps @ 1800rpm 136 @ 800rpm.

 

Size comparison

 

The FT1 supertweets. Hooked them up for two minutes, and Jesus these things are the harshest, most painful tweeter I've ever heard! Ill make my final judgement when I cross them over properly and have the mids, but its not likely that I will use them. 

Love the design!!!! Can't wait to see this thing.

Thanks man, Alton is a great guy, talented for sure.

 

I try, lol.  It's taking awhile to get the cutsheet down.  Trying to decide the best way to describe the dimensions, lol.

No problem, its a large box so I would expect that.

Just out of curiosity are you take into account that the sheets are 49x36?

Either way I can always spit the dimensions on some of the large pieces and glue them together.

Revised plan:

 

Deck:

Pioneer 80prs (Active)

 

Subs:

6 SSA Dcon 15s

 

Amps:

Sundown 2500d

Sundown 125.4

 

Tweets:

2 Morel CAT 308s

 

Mids:

2 Aurum Cantus AC165/50C2C 6.5

 

Wire:

1/0 Welding Cable

10g Monster Wire

 

Alternator:

Mechman 260amp

 

Batteries:

2 Diehard platinum G31 @ Front

2 Kinetik HC1200 @ Amps

Picked up so 1/0 G wire, fuses, and connections today to wire up the Alternator, and move the HC1200 to the center console.

The wall is coming soon, this build is starting a lot slower than I expected. But money isn't right quite yet. Soon hopefully.

Oh and I'm switching to the crescendo 3500 for subs, because I rather have a little extra power maybe with impedance rise then not enough.

Tuned in man! What kind of wire is that?

1/0 Welding Wire

Tuned in man! What kind of wire is that?

Its a locally manufactured brand called Arctic Ultraflex, it is nice wire but likely wont be buying it again as it was 5$ a foot.

But I wanted to get this alternator in today so I bought this instead of ordering some which would take at least a week to get here.

Very nice start!
