Looks great, and nice head unit. I have the same Memphis 1/0 gauge wire on my HO alt, I was going to use Knuconceptz, but I had to get my stock alt returned immediately, so I had not choice but to buy whatever the local car audio shop had, and it was memphis. I paid $5 a foot, kind of a ripoff but I love the orange color as opposed to all of the blue power wiring I'm starting to see. I never put a plastic grommet over it, and it looks much nicer when there is one-as you've done.
me and two of the guys from CC audio put the box together. ive never built a box anywhere close to this size and since my friends work at an audio store i thought it would be best for them to help me.
Jexx it sounds good, very loud and still maintains good SQ, but not the best. its tuned to 35hz and is just over 11cuft after all displacement (close to 14cuft before). 126sq inches of port, it moves alot of air.
i dont have the front speakers in yet. i get them on my birthday which is august 10th. kinda skeet because its not really a suprise, after all i ordered them. oh well i can wait a few days.
troy, i didnt pay much at all. i got the amp kit, and everything installed for a little under 400. so im willing to say i paid close to 100 for almost 2 days of labor. the carpet and vinyl are both color matched as close as we could get to the interior. the top, back, and front walls are all double baffle, so we used a ton of wood. theres 1/4inch plexi with the CC audio and ED logos and we painted behind that to match the car as well.
doing it all myself would have taken forever and probably would have cost close to the same amount because i would have messed something up.
damn jake that is awesome. that port is huge man. damn hair trick. lol. you've been holding out on us for the past few weeks haven't you? lol. great install. i bet it sounds as good as it looks.
ATF, its a vinyl decal that they put under the plexi, same with the ED on the other side. they made the CCaudio one with the same colors as the ED to make it look clean.
grant, i found that trying to bend the vinyl as one piece is very hard because it starts to crack and shows where the lines are. so we did 2 seperate pieces of vinyl. it might not look as clean but its easier and you dont have to worry about it ripping or tearing.
the only reason it was so low is because im friends with the guys and i did it with them. we pretty much just used there shop because they have all the tools and such.
well right now i just moved so i dont have no place to build a box and a box like that will take patience so if u can hook me up we can make a deal and u will make alil money too
Tight Tight Tight Jake i like da colors of ur box they look tight and ur box looks really clean lol. Since were on tha subject does ne1 know how i could find out how to tune a wide square vent like his and others?? Thanx.
this weekend im making a port adapter to tune the box down to 27hz. its going to work as a shelf almost, where i can just slide it in and also take it out when needed. its going to change the port from 35hz and 126sq inches of port to 27hz and 66.6sq inches of port. im trying to think of a way to make it air tight so i might try some kind of rubber, im not sure yet. any ideas are welcomed.
