X2. OP, you are the reason people don't like the world of car audio. There's a time and place for everything, be considerate of others...

can you say recones?

we are giving the XCON's away! Just another reason ssa is Awesome!

That is awesome looking. For anyone else interested in this as much as me, here's the website link: don't click here, click here.

but but but I need my drivers for turkey day!?!!? Have a good holiday Jacob and the rest of the crew.

but he is in Germany and it's being shipped to Bulgaria. wtf are they gonna do

Fiberglassing the outside may strengthen it a little but internal bracing will do way more. But it'll look snazzy with the fiberglass Won't effect sound.

So the fiberglass is put over the box for aesthetics? Nothing wrong with that. Have you seen / heard any of his work? Finding a box builder is a bit hit and miss, for my last setup I was too cheap to pay for shipping for an enclosure and have someone I know that does good work build it. So I found someone locally that could do it, and the end product wasn't terrible but wasn't perfect either.

Well I'm sorry to tell you that if you don't know then there's no way in hell we know, therefore no one can help you. If I were you, I'd talk to Andrew from Argent Audio on here and see what he can do for ya. His prices are fair and his work is superb, you know you'll be happy with the end product.

You need to be more specific about "he uses mdf wood and fiberglass". does he build a box out of mdf and coat the inside with resin, and your referring to this as "fiberglass an mdf" does he build a box primarily out of fiberglass and uses mdf as a "skeleton" for wrapping the cloth around? does he wear pajamas and a name tag with "Willie" on it? If so stay away from that guy, it won't sound clean

Honestly, you expect people to give you an educated answer when you ask such a vague question? What are your goals? Why do you want a fiberglass enclosure? For the look?

Cool cool cool. So whatcha got in your ride? I'm in tucson...

that's nuts Hows the windshield and weather stripping around it, weren't you having some problems with it getting torn apart?

MIP That sucks.

lawyer?

I'm digging the light and dark intensity around the edges, nice pictures. Oh and:

yeah man, start tearing up the streets And so this post isn't considered a waste or flame, post a build log with the new drivers

have as many fuse blocks as you want lol. For every connect from a positive terminal there should be a fuse. (unless you have a battery bank in the rear then theres no need to have a fuse between every single battery, but there should be a fuse on the last positive connection that's going to your equipment and the first positive connection going to the front main battery.

yes and no. Depends what the fuse is trying to "save", an amp, multiple amps, the wire itself in case of short circuit?

I don't have a fuse between my positive stud on alt to positive terminal on battery, neither does my stock wiring harness. I wouldn't worry about it.

Monoblock amp is the way to go. Plus you don't need separate channels for the sub stage.

Couldn't of said it any better. What coil config are the drivers? As long as you can wire the subs together to 1ohm then strap them. I believe you mean to two ohms, if you where wired to 1, each amp would be seeing .5 ohms the BTLs only come in 1 and 2 ohms. so you cant drop them two 1 ohm only .5. so would it be louder and more efficient to run them at 2 ohms strapped or not? As stated previously, get two dual 1ohm drivers. Two amps strapped at 2ohms is 1ohm AT each amp... your fine.
