There really is none. Some just like the awesome sq that the XXX puts out.

That was my main basis for not buying a 12A instead of my 12 XXX. I heard many storys of people returning their subs and waiting 5 months for new ones, then I looked into RE and I only found one instance of a XXX blowing (he was running it freeair in his trunk off of 2500 watts). So, I figured I would buy a XXX, and I also figured I could buy it used because it wouldn't have problems. Well, a year later, I am still satisfied and I am glad I didn't go with eD.

How big is your budget?

How about an orion 2400D?

Not likely. They usually change every year. Just suck it up and take the 10 minutes change a few wires.

I dont know if I would face them backwards, especially if its ported because you will need room for it to breathe. You could maybe make the box into a bench shape and fiberglass the seats and add cushions if you wanna get crazy with it. I have always thought of doing this. My cousin did it in his jeep and it was pretty cool, the only thing is, dont make the seat too high because you wont be able to fit.

Looks pretty nice. Is it just a sq woofer or does it get pretty loud too? Good price for XBL^2. I bet that small looking motor will amaze you kind of like the tempest.

Anybody thinking what I am thinking? 32 hz... the chick frequency... thats the perfect truck to test it in. :boink:

Sorry bout that, I'll get some pics up tomorrow. We got it all functional today, and man does it sound good. It gets loud as hell and stays clean. Plays good bass too. It will be interesting to see the chicks reaction of sitting on it I posted something yesterday but it didn't appear. heres basically what i said: I am thinking of an idea of how to make it hold beer and be insulated. I will take some 3/4" wood and make a frame for the thing and glass the inside and the outside, and take some expanding foam and fill in the gap. I will then put some thick rags on the outside of it to soak up the condensation if any. Anybody have some comments on how to keep all of the stuff dry? I also need one of those cd player covers that they have in boats if anybody knows where to get one. Jamie, I may need some help w/ the appearance of the thing, so if you have some free time this week, just give me a call.

Well, last summer, me and my friends saw somebody w/ an ice chest speaker box. They had a Pioneer HU, some Kicker 8's, some Pioneer 6x9s, and a small amp and a battery. It sounded really good. We had the idea to do something bigger and better however. On our quest for the perfect ice chest to use (hey its gotta be big enough to hold beer), we came across a rubbermaid bench. We thought it would be perfect for the project and so we bought it. I took my old pioneer hu (deh-p330) and my friend donated some 5.25s, and I bought some pioneer 6x9s off of a friend. For bass, I picked up a pair of RE 8's while they were on sale. I bought a JBL 80.4 to power it all. After a few weeks of working on it, we got too drunk one night and messed up the cd player install in the armrest. I waited about 5 or 6 months before calling rubbermaid and realizing that it would only be $12 shipped for a new one. Well, it came in and recently we got back to work on it. Right now it is almost functional, I dont think the cd player is working so I plan on buying my friend's old pioneer for all the money he owes me. I also have to mount the turn on switch, and the speaker box terminal that I am using for a charging point. Now to the idea of how to get beer into it. I plan to make a frame out of some scrapwood and fiberglass about 4 layers of mat to it and pop the mold out. I also plan to make it lip over the edges so nothing happens to spill. I will glue some thick rags on the outside to soak up any condensation that may occur. I will also drill a hole and put some small pvc and a stopper for a drain. After that, all we need to do is cosmetics. I have some body filler and I plan to make the cd player install look flush and clean. I either plan to paint it with spray paint, or with my dad's automotive finish gun that he never used, and some paint from a can. The latter will be more expensive and risky (due to the fact that I have never done it before), but I think the results should be a lot better. Maybe Jamie can help out with that. I will post up some pics tomorrow. But for now, does anybody have some criticism of what might not work? I have considered almost everything, but I'm sure yall can find something to point out that I need to work on. Thanks, Alex

If you need any help, just drop us a line on here. We will be glad to help.

Welcome... I have always wondered how those Ti's sound. What are your thoughts on them?

Nice work Denim, you rock Thanks :denim: edit: oh yeah, thanks for savin me the work of putting it in my sig :boink:

Let us know how it sounds That just sounds nuts

I like the fuse idea, except in my case. lol How is it measured, by the amp fuse or by the power wire fuse? I'll be there to help you out and hopefully there will be a nice turnout, especially with the low charge for metering. Hopefully some guys from the forums will be there too.

or you could make me some kicks, lol maybe even do some glassing on that lil bench project i have. i got lots of resin and a good bit of chop mat. :ugh:

I need to borrow your camera next time we tape some excursion... lol

How important is the engine block ground? Mine runs through all kinds of stuff (camaro) and is pretty tricky looking. I did the other 2 and now my battery runs at around 14 volts as opposed to 12.5-12.8

I should have gave you my cell. We were there hangin out along the drivethrough thing. The show was fun, but you missed the best part. Last night there was a big burnout contest at sonic and at the "parking lot" (thats what we call it) and they were pouring oil on the ground and people were doin massive burnouts. I did one in the 'maro at sonic and you couldnt see anything around. They had some people who didnt know how to stop, though and 3 people blew their tires and one guy w/ a big ford on some huge tires blew his engine tryin to spin them... I guess thats what you get for tryin to push a ford to the limit Had a good time yesterday though

selling a service, eh? :boink:

bastard, thought u didnt have a cell I'll get it from you though. I'll be there, its in my hometown, yall best come :ugh:

I have my mind pretty made up on this deck. Anybody know anywhere that has it in stock that has a reasonable price on it? I hope thezeb gets it soon. I know a place where I can pricematch it for 380 or so but they aren't in stock. I am all hyped up about it.

If you are running it at 1 ohm, get the hifonics. The rf wont like that.
