medley123 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) Alright, this is my first shot at a powerful system so more than likely there are going to be quite a few screw ups That being said, lets get started!

And here's a quick diagram of the setup(Measure twice cut once... or in this case draw 4 different diagrams, build the 5th. lol) Edited August 15, 2011 by medley123 Quote 2006 Ford EscapeHead Unit: Kenwood KDC 352Subs: (3) 15" DC XL 15s with PSI recones, 1.4 ohm coilsSub amp: DD Audio M4 (Black Version)Door Speakers: (2) Crossfire 10s, (2) Hertz Coax.Mid/highs amp: Rockford Fosgate P500-4 Electrical:XS D3400 under the hood(3) XS XP3000s in the back2 runs of KnuKonceptz OFC 0 Gauge ran to the back (1 pos, 1 neg)Excessive Amperage 300 amp alt (FINALLY!)

medley123 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) Even though I said I would have time to take pictures, I really wasn't concerned with doing so.. so theres not many of the making of the box.. But here is what it looks like with the port cut and positioned. Throwing some caulk on the edges And here's the semi-finished product with the stuff hooked up. The amp isn't positioned how I want it since my amp wire is short from my last setup, but that will be fixed after I paint it since I got some more for free from a buddy . And yes the wiring is very messy, but it will change, like I said, after i paint it.

medley123 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Put on some caulk to seal the edges again before getting painted. Sanding it down! And the last post for today: the priming.

medley123 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) He I was wondering if you ha a 45 in the port or not I do not, but I have seen a lot of people do that. Is it something for looks or does it help the air escape? Look at me asking questions on my own build log Edited August 15, 2011 by medley123 Quote 2006 Ford EscapeHead Unit: Kenwood KDC 352Subs: (3) 15" DC XL 15s with PSI recones, 1.4 ohm coilsSub amp: DD Audio M4 (Black Version)Door Speakers: (2) Crossfire 10s, (2) Hertz Coax.Mid/highs amp: Rockford Fosgate P500-4 Electrical:XS D3400 under the hood(3) XS XP3000s in the back2 runs of KnuKonceptz OFC 0 Gauge ran to the back (1 pos, 1 neg)Excessive Amperage 300 amp alt (FINALLY!)

dtleonard26 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 It helps the air flow a little better but it's unneeded. I was just wondering Quote Bagged 83 C10 89 K1500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medley123 Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 And here is a very shitty paint job, or rather spray paint job, of the box. Used only 4 cans, and realized after wards that I should have put a black coat of paint so the white didn't shine through, but whatever! But it still looks good in the car!
