A Lil Build In Ma Grandpas Chevy.


Recommended Posts

aight, so today i threw a new box together with my grandfather for his truck. i didnt have any TS parameters of the sub so i guessed at 1.5 cubes.

i finished off a piece of old MDF which was good, but i had to buy a new sheet at lowes for the sides.

heres a couple pieces after cut.

camera faulked up and deleted like 10 pics, so heres after the fact, in the truck. sub is mounted from the back, and the port is tuned to around 34 Hz

also, the kickers i ordered came today, so i slapped em in. power ratings are LOW LOW LOW but they sound good.

the neighbor got rid of his 03 chevy so he gave me his head unit, he said it wouldnt work and that i could just have it, in about 5 sec i told him the fuse was blown, so he tried to play like i didnt make him look bad. were tight tho so its all good, it hits a LOT harder than the alpine. kinda sad.

im taking out my passenger seat, battery is disconnected, going to unwire and take out the three amps, take out the 70+ lb box, then the platform so i can crimp 1 wire.

Almost as bad as those fegs that put those horns in their grills and roll down the street distorting the block....

i got it off of ebay like a year ago, it said it was a livewire, ive looked em up and thier shit is scarce, i havent found many of thier subs, and NO company info, asfar as i know, i have the only one on the planet..

ive googled and found a few forums that have livewires for sale, but never any pics, of course.

if i could i would buy 4 of em, at LEAST. loudest 10" ive ever heard....

i have no power ratings, no nothing. had to guess at the 1.5 CuFt for the box, and it flexes the truck more than my 2 12"s so i was VERY impressed...

cone looks volfenhag, and the magnet looks like one of the focal mag. assemblies...i will take alot of pics tommorow. dust cap DEF looks like its been painted tho.

any more questions??? :)

thats exactly what i said lol. im amazed by it, it has 2 times the magnets of that focal. im thinking 1000 max 500 RMS on it but im not too sure. i think it may be a one of a kind subwoofer actually....

all in all, i dont see it blowing any time soon. heres 2 new vids, getting some new CDRs tommorow afternoon so i can get some actual good bumpin' songs.

i may put it up for sale some time so everyone, keep an eye out, but no gaurentees on that. voice coil looks to be around 2.5"-3" from what i can see.
