yeah, I decided to install it after all. I'm gonna run the cables through the car later today. I'll get the battery terminals tomorrow, so I should be able to test the system this weekend. I will get the carpet on monday, so I'll probably finalize the box next week. There's nothing wrong with using the box like that, right? Maybe my sound won't be as good, but the difference will be minor...

That's basically it. I have to find a 4 gauge ring terminal for the amp's ground. Other than that, I have all I need.

I also plan on building a custom amp/volt meter. I'm gonna fit all that in the empty space right below my AC controls. There's an empty slot and I have no idea what it's for, but I'm gonna fill it up with my electronics.

PS: I like the big box picture came in one tuesday yippee!

 

allright, thanks!

 

Dont mind hte shitty amp... temp one until my alpine comes in

 

no problem, but my box is too big for this design I will barely be able to fit it in if I do my trunk like that, and I won't have any space left... for anything else...

 

how big is your box... like WxHxL?

 

here's my box:

 

DEAR LORD! 56" across?! that board that is the wall, is only 36" why the hell do you need a box that is 56" across?! good god man.. thats bigger than my friends box which is 2 subs! have you lost your mind! (spasing starts now) fakjdhfkajhdfkahfjakhf

 

LOL, where did you see 56"?

The box is 25" wide, 15" tall and about 16" deep .

 

or is it 25"? i saw 56 and it says for vent next to it.. my bad... and if its 25" by what was it like 15 or whatever it would fit...

 

On the contrary, that is the exact specs of a ported enclosure on Elemental Design's website. It is designed specifically for that sub to get the most out of it. So that is why he used that particular design.

Yeah, the port is 50something inches when you go around the chambers.

 

scared the **** out of me... i was gonna say.. 56".... no way in hell is it gonna fit i nthe the trunk in the first place... and if it does... no more trunk at all and definetly no more spare tire access

 

yup, effective port lenght is 56"...

 

Hey MisterT, I think I'm gonna build a rack like yours. This amp is a lot more powerfull than I needed it to be, so even if the rack reduces the volume somehow, it's not gonna be that big of a deal, plus it's gonna look hella clean - like yours.
