RossGo Posted October 1, 2014 Report Posted October 1, 2014 Yeah I though loading my 50 pounders sucked At least you don't have to try and align in it a super tight fitting flush mount box. Wise planning on your part Yes I have a lot of stereo weight. I build for Smiles Per Gallon not Miles Per Gallon LOLZ My build - 1996 4Runner with 2 18s - 149+ in a sealed box (with radiators)
gckless Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Posted October 1, 2014 So, being told the glue smell is somewhat normal. Has to heat up, scare the shit out of you, cool down, rinse and repeat a few times. Going to reset gain today just to be sure. If anyone has a known good tone track I'll take it "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.

philrab Posted October 1, 2014 Report Posted October 1, 2014 First of all, holy shit how have I not seen this thread before now?! Freaking amazing work all the way around, love the stained birch for the boxes. May have to steal that idea for the future (stained baffle, carpet the rest.) I just don't have words to do this build justice. Secondly, if you're unsure of your gains I'd be amazed if someone in your area doesn't have a DD1 if you want to double check. Any hope of getting you out my way towards New Orleans sooner or later (I know, it's a haul from San Antonio)? I'd love to see this thing in person. 2015 Toyota Tacoma Build Thread 2007 Mazda 3; 5000K HID's, Kenwood Excelon KDC-X997, Infinity Reference 6.5 comps in front and coaxials in the rear doors, JL 320.4 four channel, Rab Designs built ported enclosure with an SA12, Kenwood monoblock, Redline Leater shift boot/e-brake boot/center console cover, JBR short shifter/shifter bushings/rear motor mount.

Steal away, not like I was the first person to do stain But I do love the look. I'll stain in every setup from now on. It's definitely more work to do, but dat finish. I have an oscope, but thank you. It was just the test tone I was using that was questionable. I think I got it though. I probably won't make it out to New Orleans, I'm basically local only. Farthest I would really go is Houston, or maybe somewhere along the Texas coast like Padre. Not even sure I'm gonna make it to Turkey Drag. I just don't trust this vehicle to not break down lol, and money is tight lately. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.

gckless Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Posted October 1, 2014 So I set with a -3dB tone to just before clipping on battery voltage. I should be fine to play anything this way and not clip at all. Just gotta break in the coil a bit. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.

Ahmed Johnson Posted October 1, 2014 Report Posted October 1, 2014 This is an excellent build. I just went through it. The sub is nasty and I like how you did the tweeter pods.
Ahmed Johnson Posted October 1, 2014 Report Posted October 1, 2014 LMAO!!!!! This dude lined up his horse shoe and clipped his wings. That takes dedication and desire to keep what little bit you got left.
Blockburner Posted October 1, 2014 Report Posted October 1, 2014 I hate to tell you but that is the famous Tantric smell...It will go away after you beat on it for awhile. Team Deadly Hertz Ampere Audio/SHCA/Singer/ XS POWER
