anyways, here are the last of the pics. for today atleast. installed pics tommarow





after some wiring mishaps lol aka me wiring it wrong. dual 1 ohm to a 4 ohm load...its all good now though thanks to corey69. anyhow, it gets pretty **** loud for a sq oriented sub running off of a sq oriented amp and of course it sounds awesome. it plays the lows nicely and seems to not get as sloppy as the pioneers i have been running. i would say its very similar to my ap, except it may be louder. i will review it more when it is installed in my buddies car. maybe his wont rattle so much so we can hear it in all its glory haha

you cant wire dual 1 to 4 ohms. the q should be nicer after you give the suspension a work out for a few days

Vids for later today?? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

[mazdakid 5,000+ posts]

shoulda made the sub cutout away from the port opening inside the box. i got noise with my type r like that

 

[mikey060 10+ year member]

hah wtf i was told you can. you just have to wire it one coil + to the other coils negative and then the poitive and negative left over ones go to the amp. wired in....series i think. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

Series, yes. But not a four ohm load.. It would be a two ohm load.

How do you know how to build a correct enclosure, yet you can't do simple wiring?

 

[Atimm693 10+ year member]

Thatll give you a 2 ohm load.

EDIT: You beat me to it.

 

[mikey060 10+ year member]

lol //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif i guess not

edit. nvm i meant to say 2 ohm...dunno why i said 4. still doesnt change the fact i need to learn this simple shit hahah

Shouldn't have cut the hole right where the port starts...

 

[mikey060 10+ year member]

indeed. but the sub is 7 inches deep and there was only 7.25 from the front baffle to the port...

i have not noticed any change in sound...no port noise or anything
