2000LaDe

nice numbers

aww how cute yah im thinkin they want alot more power but i dunno what they will truelly take in my application yet. the mm4000.1 is barely making them warm even after pounding on them which is good. just the suspension is like concrete haha. its getting louder lower but its still not playin low enough yet. got more port mods to do today and if i cant get the tuning low enough with the port mods im gonna have to break out the sawzaw and cut that back wall out and move it back which i dont really want to do cuz its that much more work to make it look pretty haha.

small update. its gettin louder lower but peaking higher but still louder. i was peaking at 53hz doin a 148.7 on bass mekanik-bass mekanik. but now im peakin at 148.8 at 55hz while playin Kia Shine - Crispy. while ive gained 2 db while playin Lil Jon - Push that from a 145.5 to 147.7 so im gettin louder lower so the range is getting better. im not in the mood to tear out the wall above the sealed chamber to make it larger so im gonna keep tryin these port mods which are working right now so far. the subs are screaming for more power though. barely moving. still have to completely seal it from the back.

im thinkin im likin them

hmmmm no box tuning. AND its still not sealed from the back

its playin had a problem with not having big enough screws to hold the subs haha. so i gotta go find a place right now that has something i can use or use washers.

secret.... if i told ya i would have to kill ya its playin had a problem with not having big enough screws to hold the subs haha. so i gotta go find a place right now that has something i can use or use washers.

prepped ready for take off

might be playin by tonight but obviously not even closed to finished. fillin gaps and what not still subs are all wired up just not installed yet and amp is already hooked up so its just a matter of liquid nailing all my seams and installin the subs.

i bought a ground loop isolator from radio shack today and noise is gone

in and playing. need a ground loop isolator cuz my 7800 has grounding issues and an EQ. sounds ok but need to be able to change the eq per set of speakers.

Primed but too many flaws to paint. im gonna go ahead and install the speakers and everything and worry about painting after i finish all the pods. i have spots i must fix before i think about painting but overall for my first time making pods like this im pretty happy.

TONS more sanding and filling to do to get it paintable or at least primeable haha is that a word?

gettin closer

wish i was ready. im tryin to sell those 18s i had in the escalade so i can buy an audiocontrol dqxs for my mids/highs and everything.

ok i remember faces better than i remember names. dont even know if i knew ur name then.

lol sorry i really dont remember. i swear i have the worst memory. or at least short term memory. guess i suck at life lol. so how was the escalade? quiet?

yes i did.

yes i did. with the help of others of course. umm no i dont remember meeting you if i did. and i wasnt at the last show i was in utah for military training. but yah the guys up there are my boys. been doing this install all at my house instead of up there like i used to do.

names Hank, i built coopers doors.

small update AGAIN for the night. workin on it off and on lol i am so thinking about finding another rear seat for an f350 and throwing it in the back with some more seleniums and stuff so i can sit at shows and what not buddy jake that is helping me with this build

ill take pics in a minute but i wired up my 4 channels. gotta get an audiocontrol and rca's and wire up a relay before i can do my remote wires. waiting for my mm4000.1 plate im mounting it to, to dry so i can mount it on the rear wall. looks like a mess right now but hey will be hidden by the seat and wires will be ziptied cleaner when its all said and done. base plate for the 4k to mount too on the back wall didnt want to drill a hole through the back wall for the speaker cables to run so i just ran it behind the plastics and to the rear through the window. it will be glassed over with speakers on it so u wont see the wires and for fun my vicious 11 week old male "SPIKE" 1/2 bluenose 1/2 rednose pit

small update. last layer of resin on the pods before i do 1 final sand and put back on the door to start the bodywork.

yah i goofed when cutting out one of the 8 holes after i glassed it but luckily i didnt cut it too much so it still gets sealed ill probably just build it out with some glass and bodyfill it so it looks round again. but the insides of the pods are glassed so they should be strong enough.
