Working on the Sexplorer, 8 Massive 15s and TONS of mids/highs, re-building everything!

With a 150 on 2k you'll be right around 160 with 20k lol

that´s the plan

What a monster box. Good work loading the box in. Would it have been bad to load the box and just reverse the truck to get it to slide in?

thanks man, yeah i thought about it but the only thing where i could built the box was on top of that table and it has some bracings underneath of it and couldn´t reverse the truck, we only reversed the explorer to the point where the box barely was inside the car and started pushing and pulling it between only 3 guys, wasn´t fun at all trust me lol

more pics!

test fitting a couple of northstar nsb ft110s on the back, plan is to use 4 of them and the D3100 under the hood for the moment, in the future, a bunch of d1400s for the subs and leave the 12v batts just for the mids/highs , i will have a lot of them powered by a soundigital 8K and 2 loudforce 4 channel amplifiers.

Built this simple amp rack in about 15 minutes.

Some wrap for the back of the box. BTW, you clearly can see the only 2 runs of cheap ass wire i have coming from the D3100 under the hood, plan is to add at least 4 extra runs of welding cable, we´ll see...

Done!

Of course, a big ass build is not complete until you bleed lol, doesn´t look like much but trust me, it hurts like mofo, when i got the second battery on the rack it slipped and crushed my fingers between the 2 batts, remember that each battery is about 80 pounds

And by the way, tight fit anyone?????

[b-eazy]

Tighttttt fo sho..... ;)

[fecupe2001]

yeah, i was kind of worried about it, thank god i didn´t do any mistakes with the measures, box is behind B pillar, i can seat kind of confortable (thank god is not my daily car tho) and more important, box fits in there lol

Looks like you have enough room to stand them up. That is what I am doing on my build using 4 NT 110ft's. Here is a pic of my test fitting.

[fecupe2001]

that looks great, that was my plan, but they would take too many space from the back of the box where i´m going to install the x-over, eq, 2 4 channels and a 10K or 2 3ks right now wich they take tons of space, specially the 10K if i take that route

[fecupe2001]

Temporary amplifier with a rat nest around it lol, don´t mind about that mess, everything is going to be cleaned up as soon as my loudforce 10K arrives and also hook up the x-over, EQ and 4 channel amplifiers.

The cadence C6 is a 6000.1 @ 1 ohm amplifier rated at 18v , in reality, it can provide you about 4K at 1 ohm and 14v wich sounds cool for testing, i´m wired at 1 ohm for the moment and here´s the first video of the explorer playing, burped a 148.1 at 52 hz and 146.5 at 29 hz, clamped 1700 watts at 2.4 ohms and 11.6v without charging the batts or testing anything, just wanted to fired it up and see how it plays, before i can test with port area, tuning, etc etc, i need to seal everything from the back so i don´t get erratic results, so far so good

Thats a wind tunnel! Lol.... So where were we? Ahhh... 150 @ 2k clamp? Hmmmm more work!

Thats a wind tunnel! Lol.... So where were we? Ahhh... 150 @ 2k clamp? Hmmmm more work!

yes it is, looks promising for real, well this is only the first test, with 2K clamped should be around 149 right now at 52 hz, no way i´m gonna peak at that frequency, sealed off should drop at least 10 hz, just wanted to fire it up and see if it sucks ass like i was afraid of lol

This build has me inspired my friend. Keep up the great work and keep us up to speed on your progress. Very nice homie!
