baaudio Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 If you thought those gains seemed easy, check this out lol. So i pulled the front 4 woofers out, wired two of the 1700s to .5 each and also braced the box up some more. I put some dowels between the baffles to brace them up. I made plugs for the unused holes and used some weather stripping to seal it up.On to the results.... haha! Screw You! meh... let me re-wire this and throw in some wood.... 3.5 DB gain while in the 150s!!! LOL. Great job sir. She is coming a long something serious! I know, I never expected this from this system honestly. But I'm very impressed with how well they take it. The gains will be MUCH harder to get now Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baaudio Posted July 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Ya only 8 woofers now. Not 4. It would be hard to get that out of 4 of these woofers lol Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baaudio Posted September 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 modded my voltmeter into the dash, being that my ex is a manual this was relatively easy to do then i took a dual 0 gauge stinger block and modified it to work on my alt, giving me 2 runs of 1/0 from alt to battery added dual inputs to both 1700s thanks to Project DB scored some kick pods on CACO relatively cheap and got them wired up with some Kenwood 5.25 components Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baaudio Posted September 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 i changed my port up again, this time i opened it up some and made it longer. biggest difference i noticed was how much cooler the system seemed to run. woofers wouldnt get stinky as quickly.

baaudio Posted September 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 it takes power to make power. i went and purchased a new large case gm alt from a local auto electric shop and am fabbing dual alts now. ive got the bracket about halfway complete, just havent had a chance to finish it. looks like enough space... its gonna be a tight squeeze... and finally a bracket started i need to add a idler pulley to get sufficient wrap on the alt and ac pump heres my idea and finally i changed up my bracing in the box 5/8" threaded rod Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
