[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8516039, member: 614752"] [IMG]http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g69/hispls/IMG_1369_zpsaiopx1ft.jpg[/IMG] Been really busy all year so I haven't got much done. Had a couple days with my brother and we tightened up the inside of the shell with fiberglass and some bondo, added a few inches more depth, and rebuilt the baffle for 3 12s to better suit the space and provide a properly functioning port. Currently this is nearly finished up with bondo and fiberglass filling in the gaps, the port mouth finished and rounded, and the port itself narrowed a little to lower tuning. Door panels are roughed out but need some finishing touches and carpet as well. Hopefully my brother can free up a couple more days at some point to tighten things up before the end of the summer so we can do a show together. Sounds very nice and plays without killing the battery bank or overheating coils, which leads me to believe that amp isn't putting out much more than half power 90+% of the time. 4.2 ohm DCR is a really safe place for this amp, it can go for hours like that. Initial meter testing was rather lackluster (barely 150) but this configuration of subs/port will generally meter poorly at the dash. Top ports generally measure quite nicely at the kick. Then again, he is not looking to compete, just have something that looks and sounds nice without **** constantly breaking. [/QUOTE]
