killer20072001 System build

[killer20072001]

It has finally begun. Built my box today for my fully loaded Fi BTL old style triple stack motor. Took for ******* ever because the drill wouldnt hold a charge. Got the amp all in there. Still isnt dialed in correctly. The box is 20x30x30 8.70 cubic feet 6.58 cubic feet after port, bracing, and sub displacement. Tuned in around 32.32 Hz. Didny fiberglass of anything yet. We are planning on throwing some fiberglass in there, and some body filler on the outside. Then making it look all pretty. Its not all fine tuned and fineshed yet ,but a work in progress. Only have the one Sundown SAE-1200 running the sub for now. I have another one in the mail supposed to arrive middle of the week sometime. Before I put in the other amp im gonna pick up a roll of 1/0 wire and redo all my power and grounds. Also add another battery. I already have 1/0 run for all of my engine bay from my last setup. It deffinantly hits alot lower and louder than my last system, but I could not turn it up all the way because my stock CD player would skip whenever the bass would hit. I have a good CD player to put in there but, some ass on ebay is trying to **** me out of my wiring harness. But that is another story.

The plan is eventually to double what I have now. 2 18" Fi BTl's and 4 Sundown SAE-1200 amps.

Such a pain in the ass to drive with your seat all the way forward, and wood hitting you on top of your head, but I made it alive.

Ross doing his thing

Waiting for that damn drill to charge.

Not to bad of a circle for a jig saw.

next time you get wood, take your dimensions in there and they will cut it up for you, well at least thats what i do, or find a truck with a bed or borrow a trailer

Thats alot of SUB if you ask me! Haha, Looks really good bro! I thought about building myself a little box for under the back seat for my 8" Sub soon as it gets here...Not really sure yet.

 

[killer20072001]

Ya you see them on the internet and think man thats a big sub then you see on in person and say DAMN THATS A BIG SUB. Should be getting my other amp in the mail tomarrow. Then I just gotta get me a roll of 1/0 and a battery and im set to really bump.

 

[killer20072001]

I was excited at the begining of the day. I got my wiring harness in after waiting for a month. Tore my whole dash apart took out the factory intergrated XM radio to clear up dash room. Got everything all wired in and the ******* piece o shit clarion cd player doesnt work. The usb port doesnt even work on it. Turns on but the only thing that plays is the radio So ive gotta wire my LOC back in to have some kind of bumps. Then it got super dark outside fast and started to rain. So i end up inside the 100 degree yukon with all the doors shut trying to half ass put everything in so I can drive to work tonight. On the upside of things I got my second Sundown SAE-1200 and 20 ft of 8 gauge spreaker wire in.

All that XM shit taking up space in my dash.

This is how I get to drive to work tonight.lol

 

[fatnlowtahoe504]

do you have a aftermarket alt? your voltage isnt moving at all....

 

[killer20072001]

Actually no i dont. Just the big 3. Which suprised me. In the vids I have it about 1500-2000 RPM, but I was quite suprised at how well it stays up. No extra battery either. Deffinantly gonna get another battery for my other amp.

 

[matt14]

Are you gonna do anything with the door speakers?

 

[killer20072001]

I have a set of Rockford Fosgate 6.5" T1"s in the front doors. Havent changed the rears yet. Plan on changing those to T1's also.

 

[denalianyone]

where did you get the rear mat under your box in the rear?

 

[titanium02]

looks good

my 2 10's do about the same amount of vibration.. fi's are badass

 

[killer20072001]

The mat came with the yukon when I bought it. I just recently took it out because the box keeps sliding around.

Thanks titanium. Im ready to rum that amp on 1 ohm and get my other amp in there to really make it move. I have got to get some more battery's. Ive finally beat mine up enough its haveing trouble getting back up to 14 volts.

 

[mrtrill]

bless yo heart, I havent gone that deep into
my dash and its a ***** messing wit all that wiring.


props on ya diy. I dont believe I have the patience anymore.
But i love upgraded sound systems!

 

[killer20072001]

Got my second amp in over the weekend. Ran the 1/0 under the carpet. Its deffianlty alot louder but, I can only play it for about 5 seconds before I lose all my volts. Working on getting another battery and another alt.
