UPDATE NEW BUILD WITH VIDEO !!!!!!! New build starts at post #13 T line build for 1 MTX 8500-12 in a 2005 Navigator

[splkia]

Man I feel like a bandwagon jumper but I had to give this a shot. Started it a week ago and worked on it off and on between other vehicles and family. I had one MTX 9500 15 w/dual 4 ohm coils before on a Earthquake PHD10000w2, Now I've got an MTX 8500 12 with a single 4ohm coil and damn its louder and deeper than the 15 with less power and less cone area, its also down firing. Sorry for the crappy pics they were taken from my Iphone 3g. Anyways on to the build pics.

Testing a few things here

Let me know what you guys think,

More pics to come.

Some new Pics

Also my neighbour 4 houses down says my shit rattles his windows he never complained about the 950015 this is great.

test fitting the box fiberglass is dry. I always use carpet for my forms it may soak up resin but, i dont usually need to go through the bullshit of building up layers for small jobs and bigger jobs have a good base to start from.

alien head in lol

alien head in holes cut for LED lighting

Bondo applied

Vinyl applied, this will be the only part of the box really seen from the top once the trimpanels are in place

Wiring shit up those lights are bright
