'01 Silverado going to 2 12"s

Joseph K · Apr 19, 2010

Decided to go to 2 12"s under the rear seat. Did have a 10" BL ported, but I want to change it up. More cone area //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

The subs:

MB Quart Dual 2 Ohm Reference Series. They were made by Rockford Fosgate, they're somewhat old school. Manufacture date says May 2005, but they're brand new out of the box. Gonna have them on a JBL GTO 1201.1 II, 600-700 watts or so going to each.

The amps...

The box build...

Where I'm at right now. I oughta finish it today. I probably won't have time to completely finish/wrap it until next weekend...

What it's getting covered in (just the parts of the box that show when the seat is down, though) //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif Suede....

And a pic of the 10" BL that's going bye bye... so beefy.

95% done. Got the box all together, I just have to cut the holes, mount up the subs, and wrap it in suede. NEXT WEEKEND

Much thanks... I've done a lot to it lol. Only other thing that's different now (that you can see in that pic anyway) is I ripped off the brow and tinted the whole windshield.

too shallow.......raise the rear seat up 2 inches and now you got some volume

Flastrongman · Apr 19, 2010

x2^^ those subs are going to hate that shallow box

uhhhh 1.3 cubes per sub isn't enough?? lol keep in mind that last picture is of the BACK side, which is a lot shallower than the front. It slopes up haha.

bro.. he has got some volume.. bro

it's amazing how much room you have when you don't need to account for port displacement

x2^^ those subs are going to hate that shallow box

why will the subs care about how shallow the box is?

they have no feelings

if they did have feelings, i do believe they would not give a flying FUCK how shallow their box is. there's other ways to get internal space

perdy subs man!

Very clean truck, nice build

Joseph K · Apr 26, 2010

Box is done as far as structurally goes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif Wood filler in every screw hole, box is completely smooth and rounded over. Probably going to get an upholstery shop to do the suede that way they can cover the whole thing. Plus sewed seams on the edges //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

Anyway, pictures lol...

Mounting hardware:

(didn't have all 8 bolts in the pass. side sub in this pic)

Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the results. Sound quality is a lot better than the ported 10" BL.

They hit harder and are a lot louder, and I'm not even running full power to them yet, just breaking them in.

awesome job can't wait to see it finished!

Awesome build. I need to do a box just like that for my truck. Do you happen to have the dimensions/design?

Oh, and nice truck!
