YESSIR! Almost, I CAN'T WAIT!!!

The whole process of customizing an alternator for your needs is exciting!! Shout out to Mike Singer for this dope Alternator being built for Red Ruby!!
-
there's a lot going into my next build. On one hand I'm excited because I've never been over 2k rms, on the other hand, I hope this shit work out as planned! Lol

Lol I feel you... It's not gonna be TOO hard of a build, the main thing I'm most concerned with is my doors pods because it'll be my first time fiberglassing! I don't have a problem with the build part. the only thing that'll be different from anything I've ever done is add an extra battery and seal off... nothing major. Its not like im building a wall lol
-
take the door panels slow, and be patient. I kinda rushed mine and they didn't turn out the best. they aren't bad especially for my first time fiberglassing but they could be better for sure.
-
I'm definitely going to take my time!!! I'm not looking into finishing this build until november, but I will be pulling my door panels by the end of the month and I will have my enclosure Design from Q of DSS done by Next week. I plan on not only putting it in audio shows, but actual car shows so this will be done as close to perfection as I can. I am pretty handy and have good attention to detail so I'm sure I can pull it off!

This DUMBASS Texas Weather is keeping me from progressing! Went to go solder terminals to connect to the fuse holder, it was so damn cold outside, my torch couldn't heat the terminal enough for the solder to melt -.- it would pull this shit before turkey drag!

Which is quite BEEFY for only 2500 total rms (mid/highs/sub-stage)! All OFC, An Alternator benching potential up to 5k and a Battery storing more then necessary! #Efficient

Thats the bummer Kylar, It is everything I need. The kicker is I won't be able to install my electrical until next month BUT It will be installed the same day I put in my subs. For now, I'll be deadening, running wires and building my box and amp rack that way when the time come, I can drop my subs and electrical in the same day! So I'm just figuring out all the little tedious stuff I need
-
cool. get some good rca's. Look at duals for the amp(s). That sorta shit. That shit adds up, fast.....
-
I was looking at Knu RCA's , I was going to buy 2 sets of their 2 channel.. One for my front stage and one for the Sub amp.. But yes, The "Little" stuff is adding up FAST!

I order stuff on ebay alot the only problem is ups they never knock they just leave it on the steps
-
When i order on ebay, its usually here in a timely manner.. most of my stuff usually come from, cali, FL, or upstate... no problems... its them small states like colorado, nv, etc that I been having trouble with.. i bought some sticks of ram for my computer that was in colorado... 3weeks for an envelop sized package!!!!
-
Why are all the great builds ending over a number!! Ya'll are killing my vibe! Lol (but seriously)
-
Why don't anyone run sealed enclosures anymore? I've never personally had one, but are curious to why There's almost ZERO builds on here with one?

Thanks fellas, I wasn't for certain as I've only ran ported enclosures, but now I know!!!
-
3rd loudest build ive ever had was a sealed style.... i loved it. DGAF what anyone says.
-
Would 300rms be a huge difference to the ear? I'm interested in the nendo bc2k but after seeing the clamp test on the sympony 1500 being right around 1900, is it worth spending almost $200 extra for a 300rms difference?
-
Would a Crescendo C1100.4 be overkill or perfect for a set of Hertz HSK165XL & Hertz HCX165 (rear fill coax).. Or would the Symphony 800.4 be good enough?

Not sure about the SQ side of things but I can't hear my rear speakers over my front stage. Like.. At ALL
-
@Jeff I'm Definitely not using rear deck speakers.. its for the rear doors... I'm not trying to get too lud, because that in turns make a lot of weight due to equipment... since i'm lowering my car on springs and not coils, I'm just going to stick to the sa'a on a nendo bc2000d
-
@snow I thought the same thing, and my last setup I only ran a set of morels on a 2 channel for my front stage... well, I sat in a demo truck like a week ago and he had rear door speakers... and he shut them off to demonstrate the how "rear ambience" that can go missing without something filling the rear and man it makes a BIG difference SQ wise, loudness not a real difference, but DEFINATELY SQ wise, esp with a trained ear (I freelance audio engineer so I have a pretty decent set of...
-
Yep so I'm having to get out the car audio game for a while :/ ... going to be putting things up for sale pretty soon :'(
-
Yep so I'm ready to start on these door panels but DAMN am I having withdrawals LOL.. starting to get nervous on the thought of hacking my doors!!!
-
Yep so it's a go! I'm OFFICIALLY going to prepare my car for Austin Heatwave in late July! A couple upgrades here and there such as changing my rear fire to sealed off, MDF to Birch enclosure, Morel to Hertz Components... Coilovers and 20" TSWs.... I Can't wait!!!

Trunk builds never get attention though… Unless you can HAIRTRICK better then wall builds.
-
@boom Most def bro!!! Its a handle full of us from Tx on here too! we all have to link up!!
-
Yep, So after demoing my setup for the first time, I get the famous "I had 2 12" Kicker L7s that busted my back glass" speech LOL! Now that my Sa's are breaking in, my car is flexing like crazy even with up to 2- 4 layers of deadening from the rear deck to the hatch. I'm DEFINITELY gonna post more vids up in these next couple days

If youre slick you hit the electric door lock before they can bail. And then the fun begins.

Good luck man! I'm with Kev and nick. RAM does a great job and I can't wait to get started on the box he did for me!
-
Bhe, MMD, are all good builders. Also, I'll raise my hand. Talked with mike for about 2 hours last night. He's busy. Id take no Offence to him SAYIN that. He's on a personal build right now, that is consuming every moment of free time. That dude is amazing in every level of audio. Alts, shit, that's just one arm of his body of knowledge. Good luck bro. Hope it goes well.
-
Yep, So Mike Singer notified me that my parts came in for assembly and the custom powder coat to color match my cars base color
#DoesHappyFeetDance -
Yep! So I'm loving the system so far and my friends and fam love the build quality (as I do myself also)... I'm going to shoot some vids tomorrow. It wont be too much flex but hopefully the sound quality will transfer somewhat ok! The 4 layers of AT deadener in my trunk lid and 2 layers on my rear deck is literally keeping flex and rattle to a MINIMUM! And the best thing for me is, the sound is contained mostly in the car!!
