usmc7980 Posted September 3, 2008 Author Report Posted September 3, 2008 Waiting on a new Sundown 100.4 model, 8-12 turnaround time. Anybody got any ideas what I could do in the meantime?
stereomayhem Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 Did you finish the new box? I like the vinyl trim on the doors. www.stereomayhem.com
usmc7980 Posted September 3, 2008 Author Report Posted September 3, 2008 No the new box is still in progress. I just have to seal up the inside and wrap it.
Nightshade Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 I like the build. Very good use of materials and way to show off your strengths. I have the same problem as you. I never seem to like a box when it's finished and I am always changing boxes. I don't even carpet them anymore, or do I rarely finish them off all toghether since they'll more than likely become trash soon after they're built. The box I have now has made it the longest for this year. I decided not to do anything to it finishing wise because it will hurt spl, so I painted the outside with fiberglass resin to help airflow over it better. By doing that to my box I gained .2dbs on the term lab. It's carpet and even bedliner that restricts the airflow over the enclosure making it not meter as loud. Next time you build a box try rounding over all of the exterior edges. This will also help the airflow over it better and help you on the mic. Great job and I can't wait to see the new finished box. Nice choice on the Sundown too! 2013 VW Jetta GLI 2.0 Turbo 1 Sundown Audio SCV2000 1 Sundown Audio X15 V2 1 XS Power D3100 Audio Control LC6i Stock Deck 146.4 sealed on the dash at 37hz 2001 Focus ZX3: RETIRED Team Sundown Audio, Team XS Power, 2 time NSPL Car 3601-Up Champion, 2 time NSPL Car Hardcore ChampionHighest NSPL Scores to date:154.3db on the dash sealed at 46hz, 156.2db in the kick at 46hz155.2db unofficial on dash at 43hz
usmc7980 Posted September 20, 2008 Author Report Posted September 20, 2008 I'm at it again. I sold all the JL amps and I'm getting a AQ2200d, Sundown 100.4, a 4th type R, and a MLA module for now. ext on the list is some batteries if I end up needing them. I think with 1 yellowtop, 220 amp alt and MLA module I'll be alright for a while. So I gotta get the amps in the and then set up a new amp rack, them I'll be ordering the last sub in a couple of weeks, and building a new box in the meantime. After that I'll have o room to add more so hopefully I'll be done

usmc7980 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Report Posted October 10, 2008 Still waiting on my Sundown amp but I got the AQ2200d. So in the meantime I decided to glass up the trim bezel for the radio and integrate the bass knob into it. I'm in between paint coats right now so I'll get pics in the morning.
usmc7980 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Report Posted October 10, 2008 Paints dry on the trim bezel and took some pics of the AQ amp too
stereomayhem Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 Trm bezel came out nice. Amp looks beefy too. www.stereomayhem.com
