But I do want it so I guess just let it sit around for lil bit...I will buy it |
|
Gold Member Username: RideredderCornell, IL USA Post Number: 1300 Registered: Sep-05 | In case you missed that thread, John Wheeler made that box. I don't know if that was the one he put in the pool or not. |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 5691 Registered: Feb-06 | x2^ not trying to ruin a sale, but i wouldn't support wheeler by buying anything he made. i'd buy from a reputable box builder. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5404 Registered: Jul-06 | John Wheeler boxes FTW  |
|
Gold Member Username: Naledge503Http://www.LowDownForu... Post Number: 2687 Registered: Jun-06 | Its already out of Wheelers hands, so he isnt making any money off of it. Wheeler does make some nice boxes, its his attitude that is the turn off. The only thing I would be worried about in this situation is if the specs of the box are correct. If anyone can confirm that it is actually 3.5cuft tuned to 34hz, I wouldnt hesitate to buy it from Chauncey. |

Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 5694 Registered: Feb-06 | "If anyone can confirm that it is actually 3.5cuft tuned to 34hz, I wouldnt hesitate to buy it from Chauncey." true, someone does need to confirm the box specs cause i remember several of his boxes that are for sale on ca.com. he listed the 'specs' but several people actually called him out on the real specs of them. plus, that box does resemble the famous 'pool' box he made. same size, looks identical, etc. he used for his type rs'. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5413 Registered: Jul-06 | That looks like the box he built and then asked how to tune it |
|
Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audib... Post Number: 1334 Registered: Mar-07 | Allot of people may have forgotten this, but Wheeler did not know how to tune a flared MDF port. So instead of learning, he just made the tuning as if the port was just a standard slot, and flared it. This throws the tuning off, so I know that box is not tuned at 34hz. |

Silver Member Username: B3n07Louisville, Ky USA Post Number: 670 Registered: Jul-07 | nick your really starting to rive me crazy you have to decent if not some great subs and your wanting to get new ones dude your just plane up crazy buy the box chauncey has buy that brutus amp wire those subs to 1 ohm (can be done there 4 ohm) give them atleast about 850 a piece and your car will hate you they will be loud |
|
Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audib... Post Number: 1335 Registered: Mar-07 | Are the subs single 4 ohm or dvc 4 ohm? If they are single 4 ohm they cannot be ran at 1 ohm. |
|
Silver Member Username: Alpine97Paramount, California USA Post Number: 159 Registered: Jan-08 | my kappas??? I didnt know that they could take that much power....I'll tell you what bro...since I bought them off a friend who say that they are Kappa perfects or whatever...I'm going to take one out tomorrow and take a pic of the subs...I'll see if they are dual 4's and you guys might be able to tell me how many watts i should RMS them at...kewl |

|
Silver Member Username: B3n07Louisville, Ky USA Post Number: 673 Registered: Jul-07 | Nick v your right then dont wire them to 1 ohm wire them to 2 ohms nick s perfect kappas max power is 1400 - 1600 watts max they can haddle either 800 or 1000 watts your under powering them with only giving them about 300 watts a piece atleast give them 600 watts you anit even got them bangin yet |

Platinum Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 13546 Registered: Jul-05 | The box looks very solid and very well put together...anybody got the link to the wheeler thread so i can see the box??? I will try my best to get accurate measurements as well... |
|
Silver Member Username: Alpine97Paramount, California USA Post Number: 175 Registered: Jan-08 | well see tomorrow...when I get that Brutis...they should start bang'n... Hey Brown I am going to get that box sometime next week..I am going to sell my two kapps in the sealed box...how much do you think I should ask for em' some local would prolly pick em up...I got them for 120 in the box now... After I get your box I think I'm going to put 2 CVX's in there...those would bang harder than the kapps.. You probably have a lot of stuff including that box...do you have any extra subs man?? |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 5699 Registered: Feb-06 | you should check the for sale section for some subs. |
|
Platinum Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 13550 Registered: Jul-05 | I will do a straight trade for the kappa package if you want...looking for a sub to put in my sisters car..im sure those would do the trick.. |
