Purplehaze Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Posted November 16, 2011 So, anyway I got some more done today. Got the box in the car, subs in, and playing. Now I just gotta wait till this weekend to get the 5K in, and make these babies happy! So first, I had to get my base mounted. A lil rain aint gonna slow me down Next I installed a few little pieces I painted to match Base is in and mounted to the car. Pay no attn to the area not painted, you will see why in a min Here is a close-up showing the color Check out the curves, and the way the flat ends meet up with them. SEXY! Next step was to put on the gaskets, or "weather strips", for mounting inverted No wood screws to mount the subs here. Try 1/4" bolts and t-nuts First one in Then first one out so I could put the other two in Money shot Oh, and this is my ohm reading. I'm wired @1.34ohm. When I mounted them regular, it w/ rise to 2.8ohm. I love inverted mounting! I made a little video, but it was too dark and the sound cuts out about half way through, so I PROMISE I'll get some good videos tomorrow. All in all, I am VERY happy with the way this has turned out. Now for some powar!

Purplehaze Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Posted November 17, 2011 As promised! Sorry it's such shitty quality, I'm gonna get a good camera VERY soon! On a side note, I was thinking about taking it back out tomorrow and flipping the subs back to regular mount. I am worried about the surround rubbing the sides of the cut-out, so what do you all think? Flip them back, or just cut the cut-out some more?

Purplehaze Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Posted November 17, 2011 Hey guys and girls, I just added a poll to this thread, to help decide. Inverted, or regular mount. Please vote! Thanks!

BFF Larry Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 since you have now experienced inverted and normal mounted sub setups, which to you sounds louder? cleaner?

Purplehaze Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Posted November 17, 2011 since you have now experienced inverted and normal mounted sub setups, which to you sounds louder? cleaner? Well, I'd say that in my setup, inverted sounds a little louder and lower, but regular sounded cleaner. But all that is minuet.
