CHINO11550 Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Drywall screws are bad for mounting heavy subs. First sub I learned that with was my Blueprint 1803.#12 sheet metal screws work awesome, and don't over tighten them!!! That is what I have used for the past 6 years without a problem. thanks for the info, i did a thread about what screws to use before i put them in & mostly everyone said that drywall screws will work, i guess not for me Quote H/U Pioneer deh80prs w/ HRT iStreamer Ipod DACFront stage is active, 4 Morel Elate 6.5" & 8 CDT DRT26 tweetsamp running 4mids, Mosconi Audio 300.2amp running 8tit & alum tweets, Mosconi Audio 200.28 12" Ascendant Audio Chaos. amps 2 Digital Designs M4'zbox is a 4th order band passbatts. 1 XS Power D3400 under hood,6 D3100 in back2 XP 370 amp DC Power alts.MLA module 15+voltsAll in a 97 2door Tahoe LT2010 West Coast Reg. 140-149.9 Bass Race Champ Team Bass Hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forevrbumpn Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 I use these in with t-nuts 1 1/4inch long 1/4 wide. ^^ bomb diggity right there, sub will never fall out What you may be stuck doing, is just getting some MDF rings, raise another 3/4" inch, make some 20" OD 16.625" ID rings, glue, and screw them down, and bolts and t-nuts Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
