97SSBlazer Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I bought another car January 3rd, This makes my 16th car. I liked the Tahoe but I got an offer that was too good to pass up. I sold the truck With the 22's and the tires I just bought for them. I still have the 15's, T2500-1bdCP, T1 6.5's and Mechman 360 laying around LOL. I sold the truck to help me with the down payment on my house I just bought. Its nice 3 bedroom 2 full bath's attached garage ranch style house in a GREAT neighbor hood Enough talking here is my new ride. 2001 Monte Carlo, 124K miles, tinted windows all the way around, BRAND NEW tires, Super clean car inside and out I bought a discontinued amp for work for cheap and some polk audio interiors, I cant roll stock lolI love these 10's, They BANG and sound great doing it. Directed SX's. Picked up a used mono block for a decent price too.Yes, I did build this in my living room at my apartment lol.Had to pick up some wheels too The cash from my Hoe that bought this car and a good chunk of my down payment lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97SSBlazer Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 how does your set up sound? You are free airing 2 12's that are designed to be in a enclosure. How much power are you running? lower tuning is just hard.

Sutliff Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 I know it is only words, but they sound amazing for what they are, & for what $$$ I had to work with last winter, the Comps were my best bet (&, per Kicker rep, actually very viable to use for IB) ... & as I have always said, almost every woofer/encloser the more important component is the encloser, & this baffle I built is no different. Unfortunately I never thought of taking any videos because I did not have anything decent to record with, & would be useless other than for the general distortion. But I got compliments & many surprised faces all summer long for getting as much as I did out of what most people thing are some of the most basic, "lowest-rung" subs & with splitting approx. 430w between them. Now within the next month, if you did not read my sig, I am getting what I had really built the baffle for to begin with, IB-specific drivers ... Fi IB312's, & better amp, etc. Thank you for looking, ... ... be glad to answer any other questions you may have ...

97SSBlazer Posted February 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 This is the box I plan to build. Braced quite well If I plug one half of the port tuning goes from 35 to 23 HZ. I may change the port to accommodate 40hz-27Hz lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97SSBlazer Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Got the T1's installed I love forward firing just because it reduces trunk ratteling so much After I DD-1'd my amp I was a LOT louder lower tuning is just hard.
