Mo Powa

Subs and amp

This setup peaked at 28hz, and played well down into the 20hz range.

Well this wasnt enough, so more stuff coming in the next post.

I couldnt get the output I knew these subs had, so I headed over to Pete at PWK.

Later that night....

So after a little bit of riding around with that, it still wasnt enough. And there was a 3x point event coming to Jacksonville, sooooo

Id like to thank Darren @ Audio Designs for letting me use his woofers for the show.

A little more batt never hurt anyone

In and wired

Didnt care how pretty it looked, just know it was LOUD

Got my amp powder coated to match my truck

So after a week or so of having the wall, I got tired of it, and pulled it out, put the old PWK box in and the Pioneers, and headed down to Florida State Finals.

Currently, I have a RE XXX(new style) I am waiting to drop in to replace the Pioneer setup, for DD bumping anyways, just waiting on Pete @ PWK. He is also redesiging me another wall with hopefully some more output and one that does a little better on the meter.

And incase anyone is wondering, I have a Pioneer D3 for the headunit, and a Soundstream EQ with 8v pre-outs.

nice job

 

[rumblebee2 10+ year member]

nice work, but, it doesn't seem like you strap you batt.'s and boxes down.

 

[rival904 10+ year member]

The boxes are and have always been wedged between the seats and back wall.

The batts fit comfortably between the seats.

How much was the ticket for. And I don't understand why you have to sign your tickets in the US.

Edit: Yeah in Ontario we don't have to. Just checked my drinking in public ticket I got when I was 19. So like 2 years ago. Never signed it, has no place to sign it even.

I started on the next step for my truck.

Fiberglass doors.

Step 1: went to the junkyard, grabbed 2 new panels, and cut em up...

Step 2: Tape em up.

Step 3: Glass em

The plan is 4 PowerBass 4XL 6.5s and 2 Selenium ST350s per door. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Heres one Powerbass 4XL, 1 ST350, and my new sub for the moment //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Heres the mold I did yesterday:

And heres the other door I just got done glassing

Ill pop that one tommorrow and then trim em up, possibly start on the frame work tommorrow, but I like to take stuff like this one step at a time so I can do everything right.

 

[av8ter 10+ year member]

Any progress?

That mid/high setup is going to give your ears a work out, no doubt.

 

[rival904 10+ year member]

No, Ive been slacking.

I still gotta trim the molds, and make the rings, which I might do tonight.

I did put the RE XXX in though...

 

[rival904 10+ year member]

Trimmed out my molds

and cut some rings

 

[WOT]

You use ALOT more resin that mat eh!!

Bassracing a 120-129? Didnt even know there was such a class, my doors could do that.

Id advise against the st350's, hook them up and take a listen before building your pods around them, they sound horrible and raspy, you may like there loudness, but they dont sound good, I seriously suggest trying them out quick first

Nice truck btw, always lied that gen
