So i was doing my Build on my 2001 Chevy Cavalier, but it was rudely interrupted by a lady pulling out in front of me while i was doing 55. Keep in mind im only 19, and i work in fast food, and go to college full time, and i do pay all my own bills so please dont give me crap about my setup, im trying to build up. i Started With a Completely Stock Caviler Added a Neon Cluster Gauge, a Kenwood Deck, and 12" MTX 6000'S and a Bazooka ELA3002 and heres a walk through of my first Setup, then i decided that i wanted something louder Then i upgraded and bought a new Deck Then i decided that i wanted something louder so i went out looking and i found 2 12" MTX Thunder 8000's and they were running on a Kenwood 1000w amp, which was only giving the subs roughly about 250/500 max. They started off in a sealed box, so i did some research online, and found out about the conical horn box, so me and my friend built a conical horn box for the subs, and mounted the amp on the size. i purchased an earthquake pH2200 For quite a bit of cash(for me), and 4G Wires aswell and i had the amp mounted on the back seat and, was going to rewire everything later that day, but the box, with the 8000's flew into the back seat brokke the amplifer and the backseat down. so in the accident i lost everything, except for my 2 week old deck, or at least i thought but that ended up being broke to. So Now i have a 2000 RED VW Jetta, and i have purchased a 12 MTX 9500 Superwoofer, its in an enclosed box, and its currently on a 600w kenwood old school amplifer. i will post pictures soon, and my deck is a JVC-KD5050 idk why its distored but u get the picture the sub weigths 60 pounds, and its a 12" -
I hate to do a build log before I am completely done, but it looks like I won't get much else done between now and when I leave for Korea, and when I get back, I will probably upgrade, so the build will start over at that point. Starts off as a stock Jetta with an upgraded head unit. Not the best of head units, but it does what I need for now. It is a Kenwood DDX-418. The GLI model comes with from the factory with a Monsoon audio system. This consists of a factory 8 Channel amp running a tweeter and woofer in each door. It sounded good, and got loud, but there was significant lacking of the low range frequencies. Anything below 80Hz was either distorted, or non existant depending on the frequency. What I was looking for in my build was to replicate the frequencies below 80Hz accurately, while still being able to crank up the bass when the song begged for it. For my upgrade I decided to go with 2 Sundown SA-10D4s. I heard nothing but good things about the SA line from Sundown, and expected these woofers would perform to my needs. For power I figured I would try what was recommended by the manufacturer, and go with Sundowns own SAX-1200D which matches the RMS value of the woofers at 1 Ohm. I knew from the beginning that a properly built enclosure would make or break my build, so I researched and found a designer that like Sundown, had the most positive reviews. I filled out a project assessment form after I decided on my equipment, and patiently waited for my design based on my parameters. What I got in return was exactly what I expected. Professionally completed blueprints with everything taken into consideration. 035 by jokers10, on Flickr With that done I started on the build.
