Recommended Posts

I just read this WHOLE build log from start to finish! I can tell you that it was definitely worth it :) This is clean as hell. I think you need more mids and tweets though haha

that's a whole lot of reading to go through. glad you liked it though. I'll be making an uninterrupted as soon as everything is done soon.

Mike No respond to texts :(:P

Hello Kettle. Meet Pot.

I've been told you're the king of that :lol:

Mikey I know you're "only" using 20,000 or so watts but if you wanted to add more, could you? Or is that type of enclosure best for "lower" powered systems? Do you know what I mean? I think the Level 5s can take at least double what you are giving them..so could you add more amps and do even more destruction? ( along with more upgades in your electrical of course)

6th orders are tough on woofer suspensions an soft parts iirc, and they are supposed to be pretty efficient, so a ton of power isn't needed to get them loud.

At least from my understanding.

I would like to extend my appreciation to Rusty Flowers and Bob at American Bass. Both of them have stepped up in a huge way and show that customer service and support goes a really long way. Thanks!

I agree 100%. Definitely going to thank Rusty for the awesome CS he's given.

Mike your going to need to weld new doors handles on the truck they are done. Passenger side is pretty much ripped clean off now and the drivers door is not looking good. The pressure is tearing the steel on your doors like paper. I am not going to play the truck at all again until I am back in Florida.

HELL YEAH!!!!

More like hell no.. kind of like when you break your windshield it's cool for about 2 minutes then your like.. how the hell am I going to fix this from happening again..

I understand, but i also think like your system can tare a hummer apart.... damn...

I think you'll find a solution for it one way or another.

I havent started building my car yet but i allready have 2 spare windshields! LoL

I am planning to go to miami (2012), hope you still around by then for a demo :drinks:

I finally got my car back two days ago and got to hear it for the first time last night. All I gotta say is that you do NOT want to miss this if you're going to SBN.

My hat is off to Mike Singer and Jay Kirkpatrick for this build and design. I don't even want to sit in the car anymore at full tilt. lol

Thanks Mike

Laid out scores will not get posted until after SBN but I did get Mikey to let me post this. 18-20K RMS and still no voltage drop with only two of my alternators on his truck. For the NONbelievers (that the truck still is not laid out) watch voltage in the video. He barely even hits 16.9V :)

mannnnn you are gonna get cancellation with the woofers aimed at eachother!

just playin bro thats what lots of dumbasses tried to tell me on chickens caddy. :pardon:

anyway, this is an EPIC build!!! Great work, great results! I am highlighting this one for sure!!! :drinks:

Thanks Meade,

What I find even more funny is the people still ripping on Kinetik batteries. Lots of dumbasses tried to tell me not to use Kinetik HC16Vs. 90 percent of the car audio community does not know how to maintain a 16V battery correctly so the Kinetiks always got a bad rep for it.
