The Saturn: Death-Horn Build/Addition


Recommended Posts

I think its about that time :)

Im going to be building a horn ontop of my current enclosure upto the b-pillar, continuing the top of the horn upto the windshield as the ceiling to make one, smooth surface from the port to the windshield. I also eventually plan on tearing out the front of my box to remake it to fit (8) 10" Fi Q's...I'll need more coil for a beast that may be heading my way :D

All of this should bring my new enclosure specs to approx. 10.2 cubes net, 200 sq inches of port area, and should bring the tuning to ~27-28hz ;):D

I also plan on adding batteries in the trunk and the sides of the horn aswell...lets just say the satty will be rolling on over 10kw... I will be ordering beefed-up springs for the rear suspension aswell.

A good handful of you have seen the design but for those who havent, here it is:

I got a few things cut and mocked-up last night but only had my phone camera...better pics tonight/this week though.

Thanks guys, this will easily be a 49.9 bassracer with plenty of headroom but will take a little while to get there...will be quite a chunk of money for the amp, subs, and batts...

I always love watching these builds.

You know you could probably just throw some black vinyl on the window instead of spray paint. Just a thought. Much quicker and easier.

Now do work!
