i switched my bottom 1/0 to 2/0 Adapters out for these 90 degree adapters. This buys me back a crucial 2” of space that looping 180 was taking up. Thanks to my bro Kong from Fats Precision in Sacramento for whipping these up for me. This small mod will go a long way
i still have to do my heat shrink on the bottom to make it all look clean and uniform. I also need 5/16 x 18 set screws before i can continue. That's ok i got my bro Zack from Fastenal on it for me! This is what they will look like though.
Now with those 90 adapters they really look like Pipes going into brass fittings. Def looks even cleaner too. Didnt realize you had spacers/adapters to the front woofers till now either, still looks good though keeping with the black and white theme.

i made a quick little youtube video on the build...deciding if i want to upload it now or wait a few hours....not sure. Wanna see and hear it? the turbo blow off is intoxicating haha
Def watched it! So dope hes an older dude too, I figured he was gonna be a bit younger like your boy at the plastic place but nope! Hes an young kid trapped in an old mans body like us doing car modding stuff still. Turbo sounds nice and the drop was cleeean!
-
Perfect drop. That car particularly has some ridiculous wheel gap from the factory. A much needed drop is what the doctor ordered.

Can't do inverted subs in the caddy. Trying to keep it classy. Ill be able to see them through some acrylic i'm sure though. Thanks man!!
Yea I wasnt sure if you doing acryllic box. Def classier too with them mounted normally, acryllic will show off the baskets and color scheme. Where is the 2.5" of space you need thats missing? The width just not enough for something your trying to do? Seems you got the height and depth you could use.

ooooooooooooo weeeee! Those 2 pics are HOT! Those 12s look so good. If shit was mine i'd do half inverted. The baskets match so good but so do the cones for the build scheme. Its like either way you cant go wrong so why not do both LOL! Big dawg shit @meade916

Where can you get those control boards for the LEDs and amps?
Just love the color scheme on this setup. Copper and white with the black. When I do my install this spring I want to do white and black wire just like your doing and white and copper SMD distribution and a XL2 fuse block for the front and rear. Forget where but once I saw the copper and white on your fuse blocks I knew it was the way to go. Maybe I'll get to it sooner if we get these $2000 stimulus checks lol. -
Copper with all that white looks so hot. Fucking wires looks like pipes they are so huge lol.

Epic B2 audio build? Consider this followed! lol

I love it. Those little wire management pieces are trick and cleeeeeeean. So cool how when acrylic is scuffed up it "absorbs" the light and glows solid color. I can hardly wait for the video to see all the intricate stuff!
Man its gotta take soooo long taking all these pictures and video. I just take pics of my stuff and it takes forever! -

Fuck, that's cool mate. And, again, me being me, I absolutely LOVE the blue. I'm always in the minority, as most love red,.. but dude, that blue. Fuck yes, especially popping on those D'Amore boards. Fuck yes. So choice.
I'm with you on that brother! I love the Blue also. Blue and Purple always been my favorites. The blue on the acryllic with the amps just looks so fucking clean

unless you are a dealer or you know a dealer willing to sell to you and make nothing, you aren't getting them that cheap. Just thought i would point that out. That is actually cheaper than dealer. The average person is NOT getting them for $530. Just didn't want anyone to get their hopes up. Be prepared for $800+ each. The reserve model is closer to $900.
Yea you're right. I should have been more specific not the ones @meade916has, the 14v are alot more like you said. I forgot the 14v is alot more.
The 12v you can get for $599. I got mine on a black friday sale for 10% off. Showtime Electronics has the 12v for $599 currently. Wait for a sale you can scoop up a 12v model for about what I paid. -

What you talking about
On Titan8 batteries there are built in 2/0 connections on the sides and small tabs on the sides so you can attach them together without having to use typical bus bars. Look up the Titan8 batteries if you dont know what I'm talking about. If you saw the broken calipers he accidently welded together recently thats how he did it... He forgot about the extra connections available and touched them.
EDIT: He's actually using some of them to run the 2/0 wires. Each side of a Titan8 has 4 2/0 terminals. There is also another little tab you can use to bus them that he is not using.
The Titan8 is just tricked out! Pricey but they can be setup so clean and all that extra bussing built saves on bus bars too. They really arent that high priced outta the price range of other batteries even though people say they are. I got mine for $530. Could have gotten bit less if I had a looked a bit more I found out later.-

Hell yea B2 gear! Man I really wanna try that stuff so bad. They seem like a brand that gets loud but has really good musical characteristics. This thing is gonna sound so good. Def shaping up to be my favorite build. 14v on a newer Escalade too, got me thinking I wanna try 14v on my car! lmo

You ever weight the box or an estimate? I'd gues like a 1000lbs for jsut the box or damn close. Gotta be well over that with that amp rack???
