SnowDrifter Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Very nice! Just looking out for you: did you do anything for amp cooling? I'd be concerned about it getting too hot sitting under there ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBetterMethod Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Yeah man it helped plenty. There's no way to get all the rattle out of the gate though. And the roof is definitely the week link. I've got terrible roof slap. I'll get to it eventually though. It looks like the headliner removal should be pretty straight forward. I'll definitely post photos of that process when I get to it, whenever that is. To SnowDrifter: There are two 80mm fans down there. I haven't had any trouble with it.

Please do! I read something about it being a pain in the ass.. I have to drive with one window open and the other closed or else It bugs the shit out of me. I haven't had a problem with mine being down there either, no fans or anything. Also, how is your voltage looking? 2007 M/T Honda Civic Coupe EX (4) Sundown Audio X-8's (2) Ampere Audio 3800.1's (3) Stinger SPV-44 Batteries (1) Mechman 240 3:1 Ratio 4th order sealed from the trunkTEAM NWSPLBest termlab scores to date in Honda trunk:151.7db legal (official) IASCA trunk 3 classBest termlab scores to date in my walled Subie:152.9db legal (unofficial) IASCA advanced 2 class155db outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBetterMethod Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 There's a lot of trim and stuff to take down. I'll have a week off in July. So if I don't get to it before then, I will that week. Voltage seems to be fine, I don't have a gauge installed yet, I'm waiting for the SMD VM1 or whatever it's called. I don't there's much drop though. The lights don't dim at all and there's no audible loss. I'm wired at 2Ω though, and I figure my box rise is mucho. 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

TheBetterMethod Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Nikitaaa, you say you run with the windows down to reduce the roof noise? I can't get rid of it at all unless I just turn down. And it's more noticeable with the windows down. I get more windshield flex with windows down too. Is it different for you? 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

Nikitaaa Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Nope, same with the windshield flex. What I do is I close my window and open the passenger window. Makes it sooooooo much better. 2007 M/T Honda Civic Coupe EX (4) Sundown Audio X-8's (2) Ampere Audio 3800.1's (3) Stinger SPV-44 Batteries (1) Mechman 240 3:1 Ratio 4th order sealed from the trunkTEAM NWSPLBest termlab scores to date in Honda trunk:151.7db legal (official) IASCA trunk 3 classBest termlab scores to date in my walled Subie:152.9db legal (unofficial) IASCA advanced 2 class155db outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBetterMethod Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 OK, I follow. I saw someone call that the hot seat. When you're next to the closed window and other side is open. It's definitely loudest in the hot seat. That makes it harder to hear the roof flopping around. The noise is mostly above 40hz or higher though. So I try to play the lower stuff when I crank it up. I still haven't seen your setup. You should post it up! 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

I love the look of the "bedliner" on the box. black BMW X1 2.0 l 192 hp OEM head unit, Amplifiers : Audison AP 8.9 amp with integrated DSP and Ampere Audio 1200. Focal ES 100 K in front doors, and Dayton RS 180 for midbass under the front seats. 2 SSA DEMONS 10" subs, in a 2.6 ft3 ported box.
