gckless Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 You could throw some carpet or vinyl on there to hide those spots and give it some contrast. Looks good though and I love the way those amps look, really looking forward to your opinion of them once you get it playing. I could, but then I would have to do the whole thing. Too much work for me right now. I'm lazy. Going to be enough work to change the wiring over in the Blazer. Especially in this heat "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.

gckless Posted July 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Two coats of poly: Done with that. Now I need to work on wiring, which is going to be harder than I thought. Not sure how I'm going to distribute power. I think I have enough stuff, just need to sit down and figure out how with the stuff I have. Have to remove one each power and ground run from the truck, I have two from front to back now. Need to extend my speaker wires. Need to go and buy an RCA extension for the SS amp which I totally forgot about. Subs should be here tomorrow. Might not be able to get it done this weekend, and I'll be in San Diego next week. Hopefully next weekend if not this. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.

gckless Posted July 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 What wood is that? Not sure if you said but I can't find it The amp board and shelf triangles are 3/4" oak. Got that because they didn't have the 2'x4' birch boards in stock when I went, but it looks better and was like $2 more. All the rest of it is 3/4" birch. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.

gckless Posted July 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Well, woke up and removed two of the front-to-back runs in the truck and brought the two G31's back in this morning while it was still somewhat cool. I'm going to roll with only the underhood battery. If I need more I'll be getting a bank of caps. Figured out what I'm doing for wiring too. Got done what I could while it's still inside: That buss bar was one of two across the batteries before, just cut it and reused it. Those fuse holders I just cut the end off of and screwed 'em down in place. Terminal strips are awesome, as always. The wiring looks all neat right now, but once I get the other stuff in there that's still in the truck it won't be so pretty lol. Waiting on delivery of the subs literally any minute now. Have to buy RCA extensions. Anyone think I'll lose a lot of fidelity with barrel connectors? It will be in this weekend. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.

gckless Posted July 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 My fingers are tender. Back is shot. Think I have some strands of wire in random places in my skin. Shed about 5 pounds in this heat. But 4 hours this morning, and she's in: Love it when things go well the first time! Quick shot of the mess below I told you it would turn into: Only played for about 5 minutes, but initial impressions are very good. Granted, I had maybe 25W on each mid with the amp before, so I want to give it some time to get used to before I make any decisions. I will write a full update later though here: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/198004-ground-zero-gzha-2400xii-and-4200xii-review/?hl=%2Bground+%2Bzero#entry2982191 "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.
