    Ok I just started 2nd semester my junior year high school. My second semester in Advanced Physics. First semester I dabled in the acoustical side of a box for my independent project. Click here to view the post. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...=64923&st=0. This semester i have to do an electronics kind of thing. So what should I do? Maybe like a sensor for some interior LED's to make them flash to the bass or something small like that. I am open to any and all suggestions though and I appreciate any suggestions. Also, no videos yet from the box. I havent made it to the store yet to buy some caulking. The plexi window that is on the top and slanted face is letting out too much air. When I put some stuff in the path it almost doubled the volume so yes the box works but not 100% yet. I need caulk.

    Edit: Part about vids and box.

    Edit 2: I plan on majoring in eletrical engineering with a minor in acoustical engineering so even if you might find it challenging for a junior in high school toss it up becuase I would love a challenge. I do have a base of understanding with circuits and electronics, but by no means am I saying that I know everything. I know i have a metric ton to learn.

    sorry the video is rendering i just wanted you guys to know that i got some video of the subs in action......anyone interested in seeing it? Give it about 30 minutes to finish rendering and uploading......i used my 720 cam so its not as good as my 1080 but the file is still over 300mb.

    Anyway, while you all wait, i must say, these woofers are EVERYTHING i expected them to be!! Just awesome......The hairtrick will prove it LOL - and the dust i kicked up :D

    sorry for the tease i just wanted to see who all was interested before i posted LOL - i will edit this first post and drop it in so you dont have to look for it when its ready.

    :girl_devil: your a sneaky little devil. you knew what the demand would be Mr. Meade. Your Sneaky.

    Now :hairtrick: :hairtrick: :hairtrick: :hairtrick: :hairtrick: :hairtrick: !!!!!!!!!!

    Well I should have been more blunt about it... it's COMPLETELY false.

    Flow of electricity (well, current) is distributed proportionately to the resistance of the path.

    If it always took the path of least resistance and one of your speaker wires was slightly shorter than the other then the other speaker wouldn't get any power, right? Which isn't the case.

    If you hook up a 100 ohm resistor in parallel with a 100k resistor there will still be some current through the 100k...

    True, are you an electrical engineer?

    I live in the same town as cubfan0718. hit us up if you need anything done. hopfully not now though it is cold as fuck out

    i went to US41 raceway in 08 and they had a little comp there i did'nt have a big enough fuse on my power wire so it was like a burp and i hit 142.1 and it hadnt hit my freq yet cant remember if that was when i still had my 1500watt amp or my 2500watt amp but i know it is hitting way harder than that now. I really only hear about sound comps at the last second or after they happen but next time i hear of 1 im deffinitly going.

    You should let me know if you hear of any and ill do the same i would like to compete but i know 500 RMS in the trunk aint gonna do jack shit at a comp i am working towards 2 15's in the back seat but that wont be for a while.

    Industrial strength Velcro ftw.

    *not my car btw

    Nice im thinking of putting them at an angle kinda sorta in the trunk there is a little space not sure i could fit them there though. whatever i figure out ill post into the build log when i post it if you guys care. The box i made is quite intriguing so ill prolly post it in this board but idk. Ill see what i come up with. One thing that would look sic is if i cut out part of the back of the front seats and installed an amp rack there which would be sic looking but idk if i have enough mdf/wire to do so atm and i am cramped on cash. IDk just thought I'd bounce some ideas off you guys and see what bounces back...my G-ma works a a factory that make almost all the seat for subaru's that come out of Indiana she could get me some indust strength velcro.

    How about underneath your front seats? A buddy of mine did that in high school and let me tell ya no thief ever got that amp out!
    Just put it on the box. Get some rubber legs and put a piece of 3/4 MDF board first.

    All about you can do I guess.

    Or under the seat like someone already said.

    I have an idea for where im going to put them but if it doesnt pan out ill defintalty keep under the seat as an option...What would i screw to if they were under the seat?

    Ok the car is a 1988 Regal. My box takes up the entire trunk therefore, back of seats is a no go and they don't fold down so definatley a no go. The wheel well is out because I need my spare bcuz I have a bad tire and I live in the country so if I get a flat it's me and the road. I also think that they amps would look good on the underside of the trunk lid. Do you think it would harm the audio at all?
