97SSBlazer Posted March 30, 2010 Report Posted March 30, 2010 My new install I have been working on. 2 Alpine Type R 15's Ported. Rockford 1500.1, a JBL1004GTO 4 channel, Alpine CDA117, 16GB iPod Nano, Alpine Type S 6.5" Components, Alpine type S 6.5" coaxial, Rockford Fosgate 0 AWG wiring kit. Here are some pics. Im using 1/4 hard board to build the box in the back of my truck. My Boss showing me how to use a router. After all the cutting I still have to pick up 2 Optima Yellow tops for the back. The batteries go under the amp rack. The amp rack is under the oval window. I will have Plexi-glass in the Oval cutout. What do you guys think? lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/

Guest Posted March 30, 2010 Report Posted March 30, 2010 that looks like a REALLY small port. i hope you didnt go with the port dimensions that alpine gives.
97SSBlazer Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Posted March 30, 2010 I have 45 inches of port. Yes it is Based on Apines specs. I called them and talked to them. They told me due the fact that the subs will be seeing more watts RMS than they are rated for that I should use there specs... lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/
97SSBlazer Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Posted March 30, 2010 haha looks like a robots head looking good though -waits for more pics- Thanks man. It will be a few days before I finish it up. Im working on it in my spare time at work. I work at Mickey Shorr a local Car Audio shop. lower tuning is just hard.

n8ball2013 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Posted March 30, 2010 i wouldnt listen to what the alpine techs say. I thin you are going to get some port noise. 45 sq inches of port is right around the ratio for like a 2.75 cube box. Are you sure they didnt mean 45 per driver?

97SSBlazer Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Posted March 30, 2010 i wouldnt listen to what the alpine techs say. I thin you are going to get some port noise. 45 sq inches of port is right around the ratio for like a 2.75 cube box. Are you sure they didnt mean 45 per driver? Alpine recommends 22.5 inches squared per 15 @ 2.9 cubes. The box i have now sounds great using there specs. we build boxes for Type R's all the time and have never had an issue. I do agree that the port is small but in the pics it looks SUPER small due to the fact that the top "cover" is 61" X 33"... lower tuning is just hard.
