that has nothing to do with the subs being badass. its you using shitty *** drywall screws to hold down subs.

A sub banging away free air with 800w and not bottoming out or anything is pretty bad *** if you ask me. On top of being slammed back in forth in and out of the enclosure for a few seconds. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Also, what kind of screws are you using for the subs? I'm shocked that they're able to rip them out....try using coarse thread drywall screws if you haven't already.

**** dry wall screws will break all day long on high powered subs. . .

Predrill the holes and use #12 sheet metal screws!!!!

Just temporary

It's got 1/4" t bolts in it now..and they're starting to come through the mdf lol.

The real monster is coming...soon //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

That just means you need thicker MDF. . . //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Can't wait to see the finished product!!!!

I was going to do something similar with my sub. I just dont have a bit long enough to drill through 6" of MDF, not to mention the t-nuts can be a ***** sometimes if they strip out the wood on the backside. T-nuts from Home Depot FTL!!! I initially purchased about 10-15 from Lowes, worked awesome solid as hell, then made a run to home depot, bought the same size t-nuts and had everyone of them strip out and/or break off //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Lowes>Home Depot imo

edit- Not to mention I had to cut off the head of the bolt on all of them when they stripped out on me, what a pita.......

Yeah...i could only find 1/4 20 panhead screws that i needed in brass as well

Needless to say soft metal and a screw driver does not get along....but it's only to hold the sub in until the 3rd, then she's getting ripped back apart for the g13 code build //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
