  1. pretty sure the coil is gonna rub a bit.lol Fuck it, I had fun figuring it out!
  2. I am taking pics now and will get a video in the next couple days of it working then do a short build thread. Thanks again man!
  3. my hopes aren't to high on this thing being great. I just wanted to build one from different parts. I might run out and grab some wood today and build a quick box to test it tomorrow.
  4. right on! That was what I was going to do but I just wanted to hear it from someone else. Thanks brother!
  5. so I am going to give it a shot and see how it goes. Sent PMs and don't know why someone won't answer me. I am not trying to sell subs, just had an idea and had to try it. I figured there were more people who do this on here. I shouldn't have picked a Friday night.lol
  6. You must be talking about the XTR DVC.....he has the SVC IB there.....didnt sound good IMO. damn, didn't see the IB, good catch
  7. I had XTR 15's in like 1992 or so! Fucking banged as far as I was concerned.lol
  8. I am putting a sub together from a Type-R motor and basket with parts I got from Ebay. I have to assemble everything and want to know how far to put the coil in the motor at rest before I glue it all together. Any help would be bad ass... Anthony
  9. now, size is not a hue issue and I will be building it out of birch 3/4". I plan to bed liner it because it'll be in the garage and I build cars in there and it needs to be durable and loud. if someone has a handle on a tline or horn, folded horn or even a 6th order or something I would greatly appreciate it.
  10. this is the kit, I expect it to be prety simple. I can build and rebuild anything but I have NEVER rebuilt a sub before. I should have the kit by the end of the weeek and am planning a home sub with it for my garage. http://www.ebay.com/itm/300591761807?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 I was looking for a loaded horn, tuba or something strange and with a flat response so I can fire it up and feal monsters crushing cities.lol I have never rebuilt a sub like I said but I am a fast learner. Any tips would be appreciated and if anyone has a good and strange design for the bride of Frankenstein I would compensate the for their time. There is a place on the web that sels designs but I thought these things would be speaker specific. How do I get the T/S specs from a frankensteined sub? I pretty much need HELP! Anthony
  11. it makes sense that the rest of your car gets a little starved when the amp sucks all the juice out of it. I couldn't hurt to open up the pathway to the fuse box
  12. I don't have a reason to build one right now. May do a home sub like that
  13. usuly when you build with 2x4's you "crown" them so the inevitable bow's all go in the same direction to avoid some wobbly walls and crown them up os roof joists to keep the sag out. In this case you would want the crowns to alternate for rigidity. But I have built butcher blocks out of pine and I tell you, there is no way they would ever leak. With access to a planer if you build them long sides touching, a jointer if they are joined short side, but this wouldn't be as strong. The prep work wouldn't be too long and it would look like a big bassy fucking counter top, I want to do it now! How I would do it; Plane the long sides, all of them before you get joining them like when you build a table. Join them in sections small enough to go into the planer so you can plane the sections before you join them for aesthetic reasons. Dowels and large clamps with a good amount of glue would prevent them from leaking if done right provided you use a good glue like Tightbond II. All you would need is a big ass blade to cut the holes for the subs. This would be a tank of a sub enclosure!
  14. just keep the RPM's below 3k! Stay away from the corners and never push on it!
  15. I was going to say to try a closet! I had 2 XTR 15's in my closet powered by a fender guitar amp and it rocked my house when I was a kid!lol
  16. class act once again! Come uncle sam pay me back time I will be sending some money your way!
  17. I saw that there was a winner on Facebook, do we have one here yet?
  18. just got 125 feet of Cadence for $15.00 shipped. Audio Savings has an e-bay store
