BFB Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 Just looking for comments on a recent build. It's temporary due to some miscalculations when I was building the box so I may be looking for suggestions when I start over in a few weeks. Here's the original setup coming out - 4 12's and a pile of MB Quart mids/highs. The day before I starting pulling it apart, it hit 143.2 with 2 old RF 200 DSM's pushing the subs.
BFB Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Posted February 20, 2008 The original plan was to put 4 Kicker CVR 15's behind the seat. The box is a little over 12 cu.ft. and it was going to be a tight squeeze. Here's the new box... built in the car, and uses the floor of the car as the bottom of the box. I know, it's ugly but I got an extra cu.ft. from this little addition. This is where my plans changed. The face of the box wasn't big enough for the 4 15's I bought, had to settle for 3 instead... life goes on. Reinforced and fiberglassed. Face plate installed and inside of box has been fiberglassed.
BFB Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Posted February 20, 2008 Here's what it looks like with the speakers and amps installed. Spare tire is still accessible, and plenty of room for luggage when I want to take a trip.
FCsteve Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 looks good. got any numbers from it ? 610EUROs
BFB Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Posted February 20, 2008 Now that it's done, I'll take it to a show in a few weeks to get it on a meter to see what it can do (the T1500.1 is only running at 2ohms and turned up about 1/2 way - it didn't even get warm afer an hour of testing). After the show, I'll probably rip the face off and fix any parts of the box I destroy in the process, then replace it with a wedge so I can get all 4 15's in, drop the amp down to 1ohm like I originally planned and go from there. What do you think?

What do you think? sounds like alot of work. but im sure its worth it for more bang and higher numbers. goodluck with it. 610EUROs
BFB Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Posted February 20, 2008 looks good. got any numbers from it ? No numbers on it yet, I'd guess 148-150. Will find out March 1st.
