had to use my cell phone gota borrow my buddies good sound recorder again

sorry been super busy with work havent been on at all , im completely removing the rear seats , amp rack is being build into were the seat bottoms would normally be . right now amps are just mounted to a board in the trunk behind the box i have goten some more stuff done on my last day off mainly just running the new 1/0 cable and installing a second red 1200.1 so now i have them on 2 amps that do 900 rms at 2 ohms each amp is running a pair of the 8's wired at 2 ohms instead of all 4 on a single amp at 1 ohm , @ 1 ohm those amps do 1250 certified and 1500 @ clipping. i still need to clamp it with the 2 amps and see what im getting for actual power output , maybe tommorow since its my day off

that single red1200.1 has my voltage dropping to 11.8 with headlights and blower motor on with the stock alt @ idle, ive found a 300 amp replacement finally that and the 96ah headway bank will solve that and yes i have the big 3 done already all in 1/0 with each amp on a single sub at 1 ohm im counting on only seeing about 8-900w max with imp rise ,the gains will be backed off so they will only see about 750w rms amps are overkill yes but there there for future upgrades im building this in stages one of the last stages will be a big upgrade from those e8's the 8's are just something i wanted to play with

when i was younger i always did 12,s or 15's never messed with 10,s or 8,s just wanted to do something different this time around , the upgrade path is going to be 3 10's or 3 12's eventually though , that being said i think these 8's will keep me happy for a long time

as promised a better clip of the sundown e8's got a good recorder and turned it up a lil bit ,audio recorded with a Tascam DR-44WL going to pull the box and finish it up today clamped at 600w total on the recoil 1200.1 amp.... very very pleased with these subs 427035636_4xsundownaudioe8v6son600watts.mp4

figured id share my build this is my first build on over 20 years , my last build was 2x alumapro bp-12's built into the cabin of a 89 camaro, this build specs out as follows 4x sundown audio e8 v6's built my own 3.6 net cf slot ported box tuned to 34 hz the front doors each are getting 1x 8 inch dayton audio midbass , and 2x 6.5" recoil midranges along with the same in the rear doors for all the amps im originally wanted to run 2x jp23's and 2x jp34ab's but i ended up deciding to run 4x recoil audio red 1200.1 for the subs ( 1 amp for each sub at 1 ohm ) and 2x recoil audio rea 600.4 ab amps for the mids and highs unfortunately for me the biggest alt i can find for this car atm is a 250amp so im going to have to figure something out here more then likley building a bracket to mount a second alt im also building a 96ah headway bank 4 runs of 1/0 from front to back due to it being winter progress is slow even though i have most of the pieces needed to get this together first things to get done will be the alt and running all of the 1/0 runs as of right now i put the raw box in the car and im running it on a single red1200.1 and i must say i am very pleased with it on the single amp and i also got the front door baffles made and screwed to the panels but they need all the fiberglass work done which i cant do till it warms up for right now i have some pyle 6.5's in the doors that were given to me for free and the dayton 8's the amp rack itself is being built inplace of the rear seat bottoms anyways heres a few pics for the time being the one video is just them on a 60x2 amp i had laying around
