Bronze Member Username: ShepyjayOnt Canada Post Number: 100 Registered: Feb-06 | adam to carpet the box start in the middle of the bottom and rap it around the enclosure make sure you have coats of glue between them and do the ends last you wont see the ends or the bottom make sure you pull it tight pretty much like a christmas present |

Silver Member Username: LewassBoomfield Hills, MI USA Post Number: 354 Registered: Jan-06 | Looks good man, I like how each sub has ample room side to side as well as up and down for their own air space. SQ should be great! |

Silver Member Username: Killer44Ontario Canada Post Number: 469 Registered: Dec-04 | i noticed u said that u had no amp to run them and that u were low on cash, so i figured id help ya out alittle and make a suggestion http://cgi.ebay.ca/HIFONICS-BX1505D-BRUTUS-CLASS-D-MONOBLOCK-AMP-BX1500D_W0QQite mZ9700780933QQcategoryZ18797QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem its a great budget amp and im asumming ur gunna be running those parallel for a 2 ohm load, then this amp would be perfect, it says it puts out 1000@2ohms but they overrated and will put out around 700@2ohms which is perfect for those re8's(175rmsx4=700) and even if it puts out around 800 im positive those re's could take the extra power...either way whatever u use that system should bump...im alittle jealous now that i already bought my cvr's for my s10....but thats a good start for your system...hope everyhting goes good...post pics once u get it in.... |
