Where do you guys get that style mdf??? I bought some 3/4s at lowes and it looks nothing like that, as far as the color and finish goes..

 

I got my 3/4 MDF from Lowes, it only comes in 4'x8' sheets, i have never seen it in any pre cut sizes. Home Depot has it too. Youll need a truck or have them cut it down for you. But youll have to buy the whole sheet.

Im still working on my box, i did a re-calculation of my box and subs, and ill need to add some poylfill Plus i installed my new amps on the back of the box and still need to finish the trim. Plus a re-tune. Ill take pictures after im done.

 

No pics from the back yet?

 

nope not yet, I just re-finished my new equipment install today. Ill be washing it tomorrow and take the pictures then. So Sorry for the delay. Ok time for bed now, i am soooo tired. Working in the heat can drain you

 

Ok guy, i finaly got the pictures. As you can see i got new Alpine type-S 10" to replace my old type-E. I also got new alpine V12 amps to replace my older v-power amps. And the good thing is i sold my older alpine stuff. i got it pretty much tuned out the way i want, but there may be a few adjustment during the week.

 

Thats BAD ***... good job!

 

Awesome work man.

Can't go wrong with the Alpine brand I'm thinking about getting those new V12 amps too. I'm just too broke..

 

Both those amps aren't powering the subs are they? Or do you have one for the rest of the speakers in the car?

 

The one on the right is the M605 and the left is MRV-F345
605 powers my two subs, the other everything else
I got both amps, and 2 type-S subs for $835

 

That must bump... even if it didn't it looks sick!

 

Its HAWWTT!! Nice simple and clean, good job bro!

 

Thanks for all the complements. BAD news, ill have to take out all my audio system, to have my car repaired. I got rear ended Tuesday. I am going to try to make the other guys insurance pay for my time for the removal and re-installation of my system.

 

I feel your pain James. Hope everything turns out to be OK in the end. Great idea to remove your sound system.

When I got rear ended in my 90 300zx, I didn't bother to remove my Alpine /stereo stuff when I took it in for repair. So, when I picked it up, my tweeters were missing. Some punk kid ripped it off.

 

thanks, me too. maybe since ill have it out, ill get the sound deadening done
I just hope im not with out my baby for to long.

 

Sorry to hear about your bad news hope you get it sorted quickly & they do a good repair job.

Like your sub box, nice to see something a bit different makes good use of the more or less useless area from the rear speakers to the strut brace

 

yep thanks, well since i most likely have to take it all out, Ill do you guys a favor. Ill measure out the box and the top deck peace with all the nice curves.
They better do better then a good repaor job
im hoping it will be quickly handled and fix

 

nice box james very clean! but if you build the box where the subs face to the rear (under the strut bar) there will be a HUGE difference! seriously. my box was like yours at first (subs firing up) but the bass quality was poor and weak so i re-made it so the subs fire toward the trunk and the echo off the hatch really amplifys the sound. not trying to flame just words from past experience. unless your just going for look then... Great Job!!!!!!!! like i said CLEAN!

 

Nice setup man... I have a similar set as you... Whats different are the fronts/rear/sub... What V12'd do you have 605/345?... I have my 345 on order... Ill get it sometime this week...

Anyway... All you need now is the "Amp-Link"... Too bad the only place that has the "Y-Adapter" has it on back order...

Sorry to hear about that car... I hope all goes well with that...

Oh year are you in Norcal or Socal?

 

Hi endless shock, I got both the 605 and 345. I dont have the amp link yet, im going to wait awhile to do that..

Im in the Socal area.

Well the repair shop is ordering all the parts needed to repair my baby. Said take about 3 weeks for the repair. At a estame cost of 4,200 thats encluding the 1,100 exhaust

 

Thanks for sharing it! It's a very practical enclosure.
