SKAR FTW!

I was a little disappointed at first with my VVX-12... It hit hard but not as hard as I expected on my 500 watt amp... well after I found that I was ACTUALLY underpowering the sub and giving it 275wrms max, I was very surprised with it's efficency. I just wish that I had given it the proper amount of power now lol

yeah good power is a must

never buying an amp on craigslist again, most people don't know their shit and they just buy whatever someone tells them to SMH

I may have to feed off your motivation, I have a 3 day break for the holiday so i should do something. That baffle looks killer btw And this also make me wish my astro van hadn't given up the ghost. I guess 250k miles was to much for it. It still ran but just had far too many issues, those 4.3's are bulletproof..

Nice work Darrell. Your van is going to be a monster! lol

Ahhh... Astros. Not so bad to work on as long as you don't mind getting scratches and cuts on every finger and all over your forearms! Wankers to work on. And at 250k miles, they are just getting going. :D haha

In that last pic, you look like a kid in a candy store! hahaha!
