ITS HERE AND STARTIN ON A GOOD NOTE

[Dizzles]

Been a while since I posted on the forum

Last time yall saw me I was askin stupid questions about sub box design etc etc

But after doing some homework I've got things down for this thing

Current car is a 1994 Escort LX hatch

She's got 93,600 miles on the clock

5spd.........

eh wait this aint about the car itself woops

anyways

she's got

Pyle 6.5 4 way up front

Pyle 6x9s in the rear

Legacy LA160 4 chan 300watt amp for the speakers

Im on a budget so um gettin a 1k watt amp instead of the 4k I had intended to get

I got 2 Hifonics D4 12 inch subs laid out for her right now but not installed

Box is gunna be built to comp spec tuned 30hz tho some slight adjustments i can get it down to the mid 20s

anyways for those interested the box is 30 wide 16 high 18 deep

Port is 4 wide 8 deep 14 long.... uhhh I think.......

Box build is next week so keep on the look out

but for now enjoy what has been going on with the car

Please excuse my tremendous pics... been tryin to downsize em the best i can. if anyone has an exact size on what they need to be i'll definitely will get them down to that.

heres how she sits as of today.. the rest can be seen on cardomain or on my facebook page or on my youtube channel which will all be on my sig.

I had me some 2 way Boss Audio 5.25 and 5x8s

REPLACEMENT SPEAKERS not what i was looking for but heck it works till i got these (subs been with me since cyber monday so thats nothing new)

These are pyle 6.5 4 way speakers for the front

and 6x9 8 way in the rear...

here's some close ups of them

these are the 6.5s

Now the 6x9s

Installation:

these are the old Boss Audio 5.25

i mean look at the space they leave. I read the chart someone posted on here and followed it but i guess i was wrong

now a comparison

6x9s installed

no you're not seeing things. they are in the panels where the 5x8s go BUT it took some creativity and some patients to do so. See i was gunna cut up my privacy cover and glass a housing for them but with my sub box design that wouldnt have worked that way. Sooo I took my panels off and fit them inside just as best as i could and put the panels back on gently and carefully and bam snug fit. now if you go this route you will have some issues with the seatbelts in the rear. they wont retract by themselves because of the 6x9 but just a teenie bit on the big side they push against the belt and it makes the belt feel tight so youd have to feed it back into position. no biggie I did it cause i never use the back seat honestly and i didnt want 6x9s floppin around in the back

few links for the vids

this is before I got the 6x9s in my panels and talkin all this jibber jabber about cuttin up the privacy rack.

then this is when i put the 6x9s in the panels

then this is a high def vid and this is without the amp but the bass still is pretty heavy

some more random stuff over the past few days

relocated the speakers outside of my door panels

and installed the amp

i still cant wait till after my b-day thursday... all this b-day money and ima be startin on my box build as early as next week.

but my goal for this car... start small go bigger get louder. be clearer. i want this build to be known in one way or another.

i mean i dont hear of any escorts having beat especially the level that im about to put it at haha.

lots of dreams and goals here. Its something ive grown on to and its an addiction

wall it

[Dizzles]

been debating if i should or not. i mean the car's perfect for it. my other option was just to strip the hatch and make it one big box take out the back rest of the back seat and glass some backs that run into the box and have one big port in the middle with some mids on the sides. but thats when i get my second job tho.

either way a wall in an escort would be pretty damn sweet tho
