WalledSonic Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 (2) 8s per door in a Chevy Sonic with not a single bit of fiberglass. Birch pods bolted rigid to the door, internal door shell sealed off completely. Considering how commonplace fiberglass fabrication is, and the amount of work it took to get the mounting face to form-fit the door skin, and how tight the fit is in the car, I guess its a bit innovative.

06RTCharger Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Made some angled door speaker adapters to fit an 8 in the doors and have them slightly more "on axis". Still havent gotten to listen to them yet tho lol smh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Ripped apart the battery pack from a nissan leaf and built it into my own lithium bank Used crimps before they were cool Used super caps before they were cool Did some super sketchy wiring to be able to run a 5k DJ amp in my room. Literally had extension cords running around labeled DO NOT UNPLUG Tested the HV DD-1 before it was actually an official product. Pretty much worked with prototype stuff. Neat to think I have what is probably one of the first units. Thanks Juan for putting up with my shit ❤️ ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineNut Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Using 8ga power wire for speaker cable inside & outside the box before anyone else did around here and they all thought I was nuts, and look now alot of ppl are now doing it! Even got told I was stupid for doing such a thing a few times! 73456w9vbwevsdb sodtbsorutnvsd sdtuspdun sd d f gsdfiusd gdf n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even got told I was stupid for doing such a thing a few times! Why would anybody call you stupid for that? I put 8 ga on my subs because it is stiffer wire and stays where I want it better. It also looks better, fits the terminals better and requires more force to pull out. My 600w RMS subs surely don't need that heavy of a wire but the 8ga surely is not going to be bad for it either. There is a common thought in this industry..."What I have is best..because it is what I have...". The reality...if there was such thing as the best everybody would have the same gear.

Crazy 8s Drums Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 It is not just the car audio world where the thought 'what i have is best' is common. There is no 'best'... Here is an example of pure bullshit found in the firearms world... Clearly, .38 Special isn't the best because almost nobody uses it any more. There are reasons why people don't use it any more.
