kryptonite Posted July 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Well first box I've done sub back port sideways and it was loud but more rattle than sound. Second box was Sub sideways, port sideways and it had good sq but wasn't very loud. Did the second box again except added 2 subs firing up and it was straight nasty. Third box was subs forward port forward in a "wall" and it was alright, would have been better if I braced it lol. Fourth was a sealed downward fire and it was again good sq but not loud. Fifth box was my subs up port up and gave me my best results as far as flex and air movement. I'm not looking to do hair tricks but if it happens ill be pumped lol DC SOUND LAB NUT HUGGERCurrently Own 4 - 18" lvl 6s (m3) w/full Carbon Fiber option 2 - DC 5k lvl 4 motor lvl 2 motor On 8/2/2013 at 8:13 PM, n8ball2013 said: this is much worse.

kryptonite Posted July 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 XX7R had found some 2/0 cable that was at a reasonable price. I ordered up a few feet of it as well as some 4/0 for comparison. well here are my findings.... Left is the 4/0 center is my kicker hyperflex 1/0 right is the 2/0 Looks like my 1/0 is the same size if not slightly bigger than their 2/0 DC SOUND LAB NUT HUGGERCurrently Own 4 - 18" lvl 6s (m3) w/full Carbon Fiber option 2 - DC 5k lvl 4 motor lvl 2 motor On 8/2/2013 at 8:13 PM, n8ball2013 said: this is much worse.

STEvil Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 xx7r looks like finer strands MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.

kryptonite Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 I'll probably end up sacrificing some kicker to do just that, actually see what's what, I can't wait either, should be decently loud DC SOUND LAB NUT HUGGERCurrently Own 4 - 18" lvl 6s (m3) w/full Carbon Fiber option 2 - DC 5k lvl 4 motor lvl 2 motor On 8/2/2013 at 8:13 PM, n8ball2013 said: this is much worse.

kryptonite Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 So today was my only day off this week and despite the near 90 degrees and 80% humidity, i was able to get all the cuts done for my box. On to pics! My work station My weapons of choice One of my favorite investments, 8 ft. masonry level, perfect for full length straight edges and saw fences Setting up the day's first cut Saw horses older than me and probably quite a few other people on this forum The catch horse so i don't shred the very end when it falls to the ground First cut done Second cut done Third and final cut on the first piece of birch done The first three cuts were to make sections for the top 3 baffles, the bottom and the front and back panels All that was left from the first sheet of birch, plus one section that was 8ft long and 2in wide, not too shabby, helps to have that cut sheet for sure! Taking the first rip on the second sheet of birch First cut on the second sheet of birch Uninvited guest while i was cutting, don't wanna mess with that stinger Second and last rip of the day, time to cut them down to size Everything cut and all the "hairy" ends from cutting across the grain have been sanded down Clean up for the day, def a long one but got alot accomplished The box should get put together relatively quick now, have to decide if i want to buy a finishing nailer for the build or if i want to predrill and screw everything together, using wood glue with either option of course. Any thoughts and opinions on what i should do? I've used both methods and haven't seen a substantial difference in all honesty. Once the box is built i'll be able to redesign my battery tray in the cab and hopefully get everything wired up and ready for the amp. Still have not decided on the amp yet considering i have no money for it haha.
