tdc3187 Posted January 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 no real pictures tonight, I only did some sanding to clean up the edges. Still have to head to the store and pick up some smaller round over bits (next week maybe.) Then go find to fabric to start wrapping. God I got a lot to do. So I am torn between a couple of ideas wrapping in black suede, black vinyl, or black leather or painted high gloss black, then putting blue L.E.D.'s in. I am leaning towards paint, but I like all the ideas well it looks like monday is the bid day. I will be calling DC to order the sub, He said it would only take 2-3 days to build that monster, so maybe the following Monday i'll have a sub here. I guess I need to work on that box and getting a deck.

I assume you are talking about these... That is the plug for the tweeter. The one for the actual speaker I just cut off and threw in the garbage. I soldered an old piece of monster cable to extend it a little bit. Once I get my T600.4, I'll run all new wires to the speakers.

tdc3187 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Pioneer Z1 should be here next week, my boy said the shop has it back and he'll go get it beginning of the week. Turning out to be a good month. February will be an amazing month. Called the shop I bought the amp from and they told me that rockford and kicker wires are the same and it is 5.00 a foot. I still am going shopping for rockford wires.

tdc3187 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Well it has been a couple of days so I figured I would head out to the garage and put in a hour or two. So I got the front lip recut, sanded, and started taping some cardboard around the T1500.1. It looks like the cardboard has big gaps in the picture but it is nice and tight to the amp. I might not get a lot done tomorrow because I need to wash my car. I had one of those moments today... I was headed to a engagement party for my wife's best friend, had the iphone maps guiding the way, when I go around this round-about and the pavement stops... I stop the car for a solid 30 seconds, and repeat to my wife, "there is no pavement, WTF!!" Anyone guess what this is.

tdc3187 Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 well... I cut the lid cover tonight. Now I gotta sand it smooth, hit it with the router, and head to home depot again and find a hinge that I like. Maybe tomorrow.... Also gotta find something to wrap it with.

tdc3187 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Well the second opening is cut and sanded, guess I gotta get that second amp. Gotta find something to wrap it in. I found some real nice looking vinyl the other day. I am going to continue to look around because it didn't have that WOW look to me. Going to try to stop by the stereo store tomorrow and pick up some wires. I am off for a couple of days now so I am going to try to get the rack wrapped and mounted.
