alex912005 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Doors Here they are with some temporary paint. I then had them flocked, but the flocking cracked in two weeks and now they are being redone. Some deadening pics Second Skin Damplifier Pro STP Bomb Aero Very thick stuff Some "evidence" of bad repair work done on the car before I bought it...

YukonXL04 Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Damn. That's a sweet build. Looks like the port is blocked quite a bit at the bottom. You have it playing yet?

Looks like the port is blocked quite a bit at the bottom. You have it playing yet? How you liking it? No it's not blocked. There's a good 8 inches there but it looks that way cause of the angle the picture was taken. It plays fine, from about 24 hz to around 55 ish before it rolls off. But it doesn't like the 2800 - 3000 clamped watts it's getting from the M4. It gets stinky fast. My Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 wow man nice gear! I really wanna know your thoughts of how that sub and amp combo sounds once it's banging since it will be much louder/better than the Kicker. =) Otherwise everything looks great man, you sure this is only 2nd sound system? haha 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

The sub doesn't like the amp from a thermal standpoint. It gets stinky fast. But not a lot of guys have this sub on a 5k so that's why. I am giving it 2800 - 3000 watts after impedance rise. And it's only my 2nd system but I didn't do the work myself if that's what you mean. Several people worked on it. My Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
