Dear friend, I hope that my letter reaches you in a blessed way. I noticed your for sale advertisement and would like to purchase the bricks you have mentioned but before I send payment I would like to know are they part of a complete set or individual bricks? Please email me your Address and phone number as soon as you can. I will have my shipping agent contact you shortly to make the arrangements. My plans for the bricks are to send them to my uncle in Nigeria to construct a school for poor children.....

Just kidding, I love how that thing flows!

lmao, i almost thought that was legit for a second (a legit scam, i mean...).

i kinda forgot about my build log, its all done now and i've given it a listen in my truck hooked up to my 1000.1 with the gains way down. it's smooooth. i gave it a variety of music. it hits the lows in put on by jeezy, and hits the highs in various bass lines in songs like wasting time by jack johnson and a passing feeling by elliott smith (pretty good song for testing the range of a woofer, the bass line walks all over the place, and its a great song imo)

blends nicely, doesn't over power my weak door speakers. i'm looking forward to testing it out indoors, but because of the nature of this box i have no where to mount my plate amp.

so, i'm going to build an "enclosure" just for it. i'll probably have it done by this weekend, it depends how lazy i get.

anyways, pics will be up top in a few minutes

looks like an *** doesn't it?

with teh sub

thats all i got. i might take some pics with it in my room. i don't think i'll paint it or cover it with anything, that way when i sell it (i do plan on upgrading eventually) whoever buys it can do whatever they want with it.

More importantly.... how does it sound?

 

[tyler_fitz 10+ year member]

uh, sounds good, kinda like how i said it sounds in the post at the top of the page...

 

[DNick454 10+ year member]

Sorry... completely missed that post. How does it sound as far as punch and loudness. I know t-lines have a great flat response, but compared to a normal enclosure, does it have a good kick like a typical sealed or ported box?

 

[tyler_fitz 10+ year member]

its difficult to compare since i've never ran a sealed box in my truck before. for a little 8 inch sub with ~200 watts (probably more, i bottomed it out a couple times lol) it hits nicely. although compared to my 15" Q on 1000 watts its nowhere near as loud, but like i said, it blends very well, is smooth, and overall i'm impressed with this little sub.
