The Saturn: Cant Stop There (dual 18's Upgrade)


Recommended Posts

Thanks :) And I'll see what I can do about getting a http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/hairtrick.gif vid in the near future

And it's seriously just begun, it'll be a ton cleaner looking and a good bit louder once this section of the upgrade is done (not to mention the mids+highs will be in and should be able to keep up with just about anything the substage can put out)...and come next year :)...well, things will get louder :D

I'm excited.

I was just looking at the Omega 15 for myself but I really don't feel like buying another amp.

You've inspired me to go louder. lol

4 18's, low power and lots of gay fur.

Alright,

It's time to seal-off the sides of the enclosure and to make the top one piece all the way across..

Pretty good gap on each side..

^The 3rd baffle sticks up a little above the top of the enclosure due to an oversight..that'll get sanded down along with the roughness on the top of the enclosure and maybe a layer of milkshake to level+smoothen everything off and one final sanding.

More tomorrow probably
