Box for two Sundown Zv.3 18". Yes that was sealed on the dash. The box was a "ported" design.

And sorry for the double post. On cell. If a mod could delete the duplicate thank you.

*are not ate...damn auto correct.

Hey Jerome. Yea a couple of guys did tell ya right. I don't sell or give out box designs. Like one guy said..." I don't build it unless I design it, and I don't design it unless I build it" he quoted me. Lol. Call it quality control.
I have done work on an avalanche and gotten them pretty loud.
One was 3 DD3510"
Another build was two Sundown Zv.3 18".
Both were in excess of 150dB with the two 18" setup being the louder of the two at 153.0dB on 2500 watts clamped at 34-38hz (same score).
I can certainly do the build for you if you ate interested, but Pulse Car Audio itself is currently closed, and not sure if or when I may re-open it up. It was a tough choice to make, but necessary at this time.
Thank you all for the kind words.

ray you have remodel pics? I'd love to see store pix. I see plenty of builds in cars, but not many store pix

I'm sure some of you have heard by now, but I did want to make it known here as well...
PULSE CAR AUDIO IS MOVING!!
Our customer base over the past 3 years has been more dominant from the DE area . With over 41% of our client base coming from DE and only 26% in MD (with a small percentage also coming from VA, PA, NY, NJ area) the move to DE makes sense. We have been searching for a great location that would give us room for expansion, more cars, more custom work, great location and room for shows WITH DEMOS... We have found that place.
I will not say EXACTLY where the location is at the moment out of respect. There is another audio shops close in proximity to this location and I would like to sit down and have a conversation with that business owner about it before the location is released to the general public.
.... STAY TUNED

HEY!
Yup... it's true... We are moving into Delaware. There are now FIVE audio shops in the Salisbury, MD area and even one of them sells DD right along with me... My customer base is 41% DE, and only 26% in MD... so the move makes sense.
It's a better way for us to take care of our customers.
This will also make for better competitions with DEMOS allowed.
all I can say is...STAY TUNED!

Didn't you guys stop carrying DD and were gonna pick up DC not to long ago?
I never got to the point that I stopped carrying DD... I had a long talk with Jassa (owner of DD) and we talked through a few things.
edit: DC... well.. I have not had ONE person come through my door and ask for it. I had even posted up and advertised a FREE custom box to the first person that comes in and orders a DC sub and not one taker...

Byron didn't want SPL. He didn't care if he did a 140dB... but he wanted it to play from 20Hz to 50Hz so he could play EVERYTHING.... this is what I came up with...
will do power tests and meter later... but it can play from 20-50 without even a flutter, stink, smell... nothing.
showing some flex first...

Mark your calendar!!! Sunday May 27th at Pulse Car Audio... MAYhem 2012 Car Audio competiton.... with StreetSlam and SPL classes.
ALL POWER RATINGS WILL BE BASED ON THE ACTUAL PEAK POWER OBTAINED BY CLAMPING THE OUTPUTS ON THE AMPLIFIERS! IF UNABLE TO CLAMP THESE WIRES THEN THE MANUFACTURER RATED POWER WILL BE USED!
SPL classes 0-1000, 1001-2000, 2001-3000, 3001-5000, +5k
SPL is meter placed on windshield in standardized SPL location with all windows and doors sealed up
StreetSlam classes: 0-1000, 1001-2000, 2001-3000, 3001-5000, +5k
Street Slam is MUSIC ONLY for 30 seconds. We use your 30 second music average for your score!
Both front windows are down for this run and the meter is placed in the same location as the SPL run but with both front windows all the way down.
AND.... to make it more interesting... there will be cash prizes for any class with 6 or more competitors. The winner in that class will get HALF the entry fees for that class!!!
We will have raffles and a few other surprises as well!
Thanks to our show sponsors: Sundown Audio, Digital Designs, XS Power, UPS Store of Salisbury, ExpressTech Computers of Salisbury
BE THERE!!!

clean signal is key to everything. Grab a SMD DD1 and tune it correctly, then play it at 3/4 that unclipped max volume for a few weeks. you will notice they will get louder and louder the more you play them. turning the knob up doesn't increase the break in time... it does however increase a break time. lol...

James, How is it going sir. I would be more than willing to help you out with your build with one small change... If I build it I design it. If you can bring the equipment and vehicle down I will certainly take a look at it and do my best to take care of you. Hope to see you soon sir.

Darn. The Zv.3 has certainly
Became a favorite in this area now.
-
oh yea... I forgot about the two Sundown Zv.3 18" in an avalanche doing a 153 on 2400 watts hahaha
-
Nice bro! U have any pix of your setup? And what vehicle do u have? What size z's? Let me know...I'd like to see your setup...
2009 Tahoe
2 Z.v3 18's
All pictures from during build. Need to stop being lazy and throw the second baffle on that bish.
if you feel froggy one day... and want a setup that with the truck sealed up for demos will crush your spleen...slap together a box for those two 18" with the subs firing forward and port firing into the rear driver corner.
EDIT: for those 18's you should have about a 3 layer baffle with some proper bracing... you would see it would get a bit louder ... those puppies are massive.
