that amp looks sweet! iv used an alpine like that before and its not too hard at all. theres a lot more things that you can adjust if i remember it right. you dont have to change them all but you can you know.

Wicked Mayhem · 04-25-2008, 11:04 PM

started the box.. not much done yet but its a start and it got dark so i stopped. tomorrow im gonna get the mdf cut for the subs and then fiberglass the side piece in. so heres some pics.

ProTouring2.2 · 04-25-2008, 11:41 PM

does your spare have the same tire on it as your irocs do?

cpolaris502 · 04-25-2008, 11:49 PM

thanks. thats only about 3 hours. and thats including messing with my dads car some. i gotta go to work for a little bit in the morning and be at the vet. after that im gonna get goin on the box. would love to have it done minus a few detail things and wrapping it by the end of the weekend.

Kenny_Cox · 04-26-2008, 11:55 PM

The SX amps are a good lineup, you should like them. From what i've read they have great tuning abilities, now hurry up with the box!

thats good to hear about the amp!

and i would have it all hooked up right now but my dad said it was to late to be working on it.. when i was turning an allen wrench hooking the wires up

so tomorrow I'm gonna finish hooking the wires up n screw the subs in. i decided not to use the fiberglass part, i didn't think it was worth the extra work/time for the space i was gaining. no pictures of box.

updates tomorrow.

blake293209 · 04-27-2008, 12:50 AM

ignore the visible wire.. i got to run it under the carpet n hide it still.. this thing rattles its ass off.. im gonna buy me some fat mat soon

2000xcabhooptie · 04-28-2008, 03:28 PM

did you get the amp adjusted?

cpolaris502 · 04-28-2008, 03:34 PM

man that thing is huge.

BudRacing · 04-28-2008, 03:34 PM

How did you countersink the amp in there with only one 3/4" sheet of MDF?

dawgnutz · 04-28-2008, 03:37 PM

cut hole for amp, cut some strips 1.75" tall and dropped down a base for it to sit in then sealed it all up etc. its all 3/4" except for the front i guess "beauty" panel so it makes the subs sit flush.

cpolaris502 · 04-29-2008, 12:41 AM

as soon as i hit reply i knew i was going to get that response from someone.

you know us all to well

thats usually why when i type up a post, i re read it to see how many different ways it can be taken/made fun of or something

this weekend im gonna take the box back out and route all the edges, fill te screw holes etc. im up in the air in if i am going to get the box carpeted or get it line x'd. for now ill stick with just routing it and getting it all smoothed up. im mounting the bass knob in the center console thing. ill get a pic tomorrow. im also going to fix up some of the wiring etc i did to get it all working. even though you dont see it, it bothers me how it looks inside the box.

BudRacing · 04-29-2008, 10:15 AM

My vote is for line-X. I've done several boxes with it and love the way it looks and holds up. Also prevents any air leaks and you can throw a wet bathing suit or towel on it and not think twice.

ima go see how much they will charge me to do it. ill probably have to make trim around my subs bigger so itll fit after line x. it barely fits now. same with the amp.

BudRacing · 04-29-2008, 04:05 PM

.. use the router to take off 1/8th inch and have them spray it that thick. They usually ask how thick you want it, and if they don't ask make sure you tell them.

Wicked Mayhem · 04-30-2008, 12:06 AM

got the bass knob mounted...

yes its dirty inside.. im gonna clean it all up friday. goin to gator drag saturday so ima clay bar the truck and everything friday after work!

downhilryder · 04-30-2008, 12:45 AM

nice spot man your blazer is sick

BudRacing · 04-30-2008, 12:58 AM

Discreet. I like it.

Wicked Mayhem · 04-30-2008, 01:14 AM

thanks, i like it. easy to adjust, and i can sit there in driving position and adjust it. and it doesnt stick out like a sore thumb. thats how i roll.

lowNslo · 04-30-2008, 01:18 AM

bass knob looks good there, nice and hidden, box looks great but where are u going to put the air managment
