Astro Build - 12 Cerwin-Vega 12"s in a Clamshell C-Pillar Wall


Recommended Posts

Put up a video with the world's oldest camera. Not HD, bad sound quality and refresh rate. I would love to get a vid of the subs and windshield, but the camera just doesn't pick anything up. Any bad sound you hear is from the cam. It picks up lots of sound at low volumes but loudness = teh fail.

12 old school Cerwin-Vega! Vega 12"s in a Ported Clamshell Wall. Each sub gets about 350-400 wRMS (3 Hifonics 1600 wRMS Brutus amps each powering 4 subs). The subs have about 1.75 cubes of enclosure each for a total volume of 21 cubes. Box is tuned in the 35-40 hz range.

Thanks man! It has come a long way- very slowly. LOL! I still have more batts to do, maybe a dual alt setup, and fiberglass.

I really like the old school in your truck too! Very nice!

Dang it Colin!

I'm to broke to look at your system. It only reminds me how I want to do mine. Even though I have alot to start with, I don't have the funds to finish. ..............I will wait and watch others :|

Love the vid!

How far away is the bass penetration? Say like, "the wife hears you pull off the free way and she can hear you forever" or "I can't drive through town anymore because I've pissed everyone off and they know my van"

Just wondering!

:) Thanks man.

It gets done slowly- one thing at a time. It took years- YEARS!!! to build up all of the subs and amps and the nerve to do a wall. :) It just started fairly small and then as it grew, I would add more and more and more. By no means do I have lots of $ floating around. I have my eye set on a Maxxlink now. :P ..and the extra batts.....

As far as how far does the bass carry... eh- a pretty good ways. :D I will just be tooling around with the volume relatively low and people 2-3 blocks away will break their necks to see where the bass is coming from. I have had people 1/8th of a mile away dance to the music.... and that is with me driving. I didn't even know them! LOL! ummm... another one- I was getting on the highway onramp and had 2 or 3 people in the Lowes parking lot looking at me slack jawed (onramp is 1/4 mile a way).

It's more fun to see people's reactions when they realize it is coming from an old Astro Van that looks like a marshmello. Everyone around here with a system has rims and paint and all that jazz. I don't. I have running boards. LOL! I love it when people let their jaw drop. I don't think it is from the volume... I think it is because of what the volume is coming from. :ph34r:

I'm gonna' tell you what- a leaky head gasket really REALLY sucks! As in sucks the coolant right down the motor and out the tailpipe.

The 4 hour drive from the coast was real fun, stopping every 30 minutes or so- with 3 Pits in the Van and gallons and gallons of water. Well.... this seems as good of an excuse as any to stuff my 350 V8 in there. :D

Wait, where'd you put the seafoam? In the tank?
