baaudio 2001 GMC Sierra build log. WALK THRUS N ENGINE SWAPS


Recommended Posts

well the blowthru just wasnt cutting it for the low frequency hurricane demos i am used to. so it was time for another rebuild. i scored a color matched canopy for $250 locally. so i just had to jump on that. and it was all downhill from there....

so after cutting out the back i realized i had a major issue to solve. my cut ran right thru the rubber pressure/breather flaps on the back of the cab. well i sure couldnt fit my accordion boot around that hole so i made some plates from aluminum and riveted them on and sealed them up.

so my plan was to make the enclosure adjustable by having the baffle and back wall inside the enclosure. they are a tight fit but it worked out exactly how i wanted. now i can simply move either of the two walls to adjust volume or ratio. obviously it isnt simple to do, but it is doable! following is my blueprint for the baffle and then getting it all together

and finally. here are some scores. first is sealed and then door open. peak went from 38hz down to 34hz which i certainly liked!

i ended up having to brace up the enclosure some. i was having issues with panels resonating and causing weird performance issues

and heres a video that Luke Schaller made of it at a local show we had. i am very happy with how it performs. i feel there is certainly a lot left in the design and performance though. my goal is to get 4 18s on 2 8ks or 10ks.
