Miles Posted January 23, 2009 Report Posted January 23, 2009 Well, I finally got around to taking pictures. I'm a senior at my school, so pretty much I have free reign over the wood shop. Haha. I got started about a week ago on this box, but just kept forgetting to take pictures along the way, and luckily after talking to Nick at IA I remembered to bring my camera to school today. So far the box has 7 layers of glass (with a layer of fleece coated in resin on both sides), and I have yet to figure up exact specs, but I'm estimating around 2.5 cubes with a 6" aero that will be tuned to probably 34 hz. The original box I had in my truck was built by me a little over a year ago, and housed a Fi Bl 12. But it had a 3" aero and was severly choking the DP, but the DP was still a lot louder than the BL, even though the DP isn't even broken in yet. Hopefully I'll finish up this box next week after I put a few layers of bondo on it and get it all smooth and purdy. After it's all said and done, it will be painted gloss white, with a nice clear coat on it to keep it protected. Here's some specs on my truck: Headunit: Pioneer Premier 690 Door Speakers: Rockford Power series 6x9's Kickpanel speakers: Phoenix Gold RSD 6.5's Mids amp: Powerbass ASA 400.4 Sub amp: Powerbass ASA 1500.1 Sub: Incriminator Audio DP 12 D2 Wire: All 1/0 welding cable Electrical: 2 Batteries up front in the engine bay with Big 3 going to be ran later Anyway, I'm probably missing something or leaving something out so if anyone has any questions don't be afraid to ask.... On to the Pics!!!! Old box I made a year ago New box New DP compared to the BL which I thought was hella big at the time I got it. Lol

Miles Posted January 24, 2009 Author Report Posted January 24, 2009 Well... I got some work done today on the box. After putting a layer of filler on first hour, I went back 7th hour and sanded it all. Now it's SOOO smooth, but I know I can get it smoother. Haha. While I was waiting for the filler to dry I made my amp rack. It turned out nicer than i thought. I've got the sub amp on the bottom (in pics), and the mids amp will be on top ( I didn't have it for the picture because it's still in my truck supplying music for me. Lol). I also got a few pics of under my hood and the stinger volt meter I installed a couple days ago. Enjoy.

Forevrbumpn Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 I love that black chrome, the new DP looks sweeeet I like how this is headed, SPL tuned for a single cab, sweet 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.
Miles Posted January 24, 2009 Author Report Posted January 24, 2009 I love that black chrome, the new DP looks sweeeet I like how this is headed, SPL tuned for a single cab, sweet That's actually really funny you said that. I'm actually going for more of the loud but efficient route, considering I made some fiberglass kick a couple months ago to house 6.5's, so now I've got AMAZING mids and highs. Haha. I really hope this thing gets loud. Considering the last box was pretty much choking it with that 3" port, this thing should more som air, and the meter. Lol. I'm just hoping for over a 140, but the way people are talking, is a 145~146 in reach?
