CleanSierra Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Just a little piece of advice, I see you used T-nuts. I've had issues with using T-nuts kind of eating at the wood with the twist it takes to tighten down your bolts. I've moved to threaded inserts and have noticed a much easier and more long lasting way of securing th subs to the box. Subs in and out of the box a few times, and T-nuts can start to eat away. That's just been my personal experience, I know a lot of guys have good luck with them. *Edit- Build is looking good for sure dude, keep up the good work Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It MIGHT be a good idea(when doing the batt to frame ground) to make sure you sand that part of the frame down when you do your final step to your big 3. Just to let you know, the voltage MAY not stop dropping due to the voltage hungry 1500. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

alenv10 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Alright, Wat other amps are there that are not as power hungry NOTHING DOWN HERE YET OBSIDIAN FTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanSierra Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Alright, Wat other amps are there that are not as power hungry The Bxi and BRZ series that they offer from Hifonics. The lines I mentioned also do rated power and your HFI series will not do advertised rated power. I'm curious, pertaining to your voltage drop situation, where are you getting the ground for your amps? Where are they grounded specifically and if you could take a picture, that would be GREAT! Sometimes the Big 3 can be perfect, and that ground you made for the amp can be less than satisfactory. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
