Finally done. Dc lvl 4 12 installed


Recommended Posts

Thanks, gents. You have a great point about paint scraping off when I take an impact drill to them. I was only thinking of getting the most exact color match.

FreekDesignz- I hate to admit it, but my mids/highs are some eclipse sp5700's I bought on clearance at my local shop. Well, actually the gf bought them for me for valentines day a couple years ago. I want to upgrade them soon, and (I know, this part is terrible) finally buy an amp for the mids/highs.

My head unit is an old kenwood excelon ddx7015. I want to get a new hu sometime soon too, but want to stay with the brand because I bought the kna g510 nav for it too, and want to reuse it.

Pic of hu I installed in my car:

And I did relocate the front tweeters to higher in the door panel. Though after doing some research, I wish I would've mounted them near where the dash meets the windshield, and facing straight up:

Very clean. As for the tweeters... My blazer has stock dash spots and i have to say every vehicle i get in, i cant stand the speaker placement. Its like once you have been touched with dash speakers, every other placement feels so dry and bland.

I didn't like seeing the ends of the plywood. Plus, I did use quite a few screws, so there was a lot of fill too.

Nice box.

Can you tell us how it sounds. How do you like it ?

And what did you have before to compare ?

This is the first box for this particular sub for me, so all I can do is give impressions of it without any other comparison. This is also my first go around with aeroports. Dunno if I like them yet, as they do have some port noise. Though you can only hear it when standing back by it with the trunk open, so no real biggie I guess. I keep wondering if I should've went with a standard slot port. Anyways, I absolutely love it. Response is nice, tone is great. I will say the thing is LOUD though. At least, compared to my previous setup:

Directed SX12D4 (in a prefab box) on about 650 watts (old amp was a Kenwood 9104D)

So, this was a considerable upgrade for me. I wouldn't feel right giving an educated opinion on it, only because it's my first and only experience with a driver of this caliber. I can only say that my ears like it, and I guess that what matters :D
