6/27 update - the buick is getting a rebuild


Recommended Posts

I thought you were gonna run the alpine with the dc's, which jl you got?.

alpine pdx? ya i was but i wanted an amp with better noise rejection. the JL does the same power and 2 and 4 ohm just like the alpine, but has a much better filter.

where did you get them clips for the wires mostly the power wires? :popcorn:

I made a new box last weekend, yes I have pics lol, that is just 1.5" taller. 4hz higher tune and a larger port. gaining me .7cubes after all the changes. i was expecting a little gain, but so far, just on music, there seems to be a great gain. cant wait to meter it and see if its not an e-o-meter illusion.

working super slow but here's an update for what Ive been working on this year. I've added more of those little batteries and I have a couple more to find little places for. The three I added recently did a lot of good for my voltage drop. might go down to .35ohm in the future so I'll need some more reserve.

finally made a trim panel that I had planned since I started this build.

Then some new pods to house one set of some killer 6.5" mdbass. im thinking about going with peerless.

I HATE this part...

Now to attach the pod to the panel I'm using this stuff. It'll let me use the stock holes for a panel that used to be there. I'll be able to use bolt to hold the pod to the door panel. Then the speaker ring will be bolted to the actual metal skin of the door and have rings creating a complete tube into the door.

now this time I tried using this foam for fake flowers and stuff. it worked great for me. super easy to shape into whatever you want. just used some silicone to hold the pieces to the pod.

yep, its ugly lol
