my hack job (my own install)

[almond 10+ year member]

I know it's far from a profesional hack job, but with my limited resources it's the best i can do for now. i'll probably use some expanding foam to fill in some nooks and crannies, but for now this is how it will remain.

Sub is a modded RE SX 12 with fi soft parts, dual .7 ohm coils, larger "MT" sized tinsels, tripple stiff spiders and a custom machined pole piece. the box is 3.34 net cubes tuned to about 30hz with 65 sq. inches of port area. amp is still the niche audio na6000d. i might mod it to do .35 ohms, but i don't think the sx will take it. my next project is to pitch that cap and get some good distros from knu. 1x0 gauge in and 2x4 gauge out.

and i do apoligize for some spelling errors, i'm a horrible speller and i can't type worth a **** //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

clean up the wires and you will be all good

yeah those are just the two speaker wires, the power wires are nicely hidden. i'll probably route the speaker wires so you can't see them much.

You don't have to cut the carpet like that around the hole, you can just cut it flush. Well, it doesn't matter once the sub is in anyways. Thumbs up.

Not bad.

Don't ever sell yourself short about doing a project on you own, especially when it's decent work. The only way to learn and to get better is to jump in there and get your hands dirty. So far, good work. Keep it up and give more pics when finished. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
