[jeepintn 10+ year member]

well about a week ago he jadon pm'ed me about building him a box for his two 15" Memphis subs for his Ford Explorer. i told him i could do it, he gave me his max deminsions and we went from there. well, in addition to wanting the box built, he also wanted me to do the big 3 wiring for him and install his amp. well anyways, enough about that, lets start with the box build first.

7 cubes tuned to 33 hz

its not pictured, but i did add vertical bracing to the box.

You should use woodglue next time. Looks pretty solid though.

and finally the meat of the system, MTX 1501d and his two memphis 15's

perfect spot for the fuse holder

i love fords factory wiring, leaves enough room in the channel to get 1/0 in it

grounded to a seat belt bolt

yea thanks, i used liquid nails because i already had it here, and i have used it on almost every box i have ever built, so its tried and true in my experience.

Brandon is a hell of a box builder and installer. Mad props out to him. I love my system its my first and its pretty loud for what it is, overall i am extremely happy. And it only gonna get louder when i upgrade the alt and batt. Thanks again Brandon.

It works decently, especially if your cuts are not spot on but it is pretty weak. I had a joint fail while using liquid nail's wood glue so I quit using it.

Where did you get that grounding adapter? Looks like the most solid ground I have ever seen.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

Great install.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

they are made by stinger, and they are great for instances like that. thanks for the compliment. 4" grinders do wonders for making good grounds //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
