Doctor Q

there were issues with the back but it will be fixed so there will be pictures sunday because i am going out of town for a bit and will take them when i get back and the car is finished. thanks for being patient.

not that i can hear.

i agree haha. when we were all in the shop (me, my brother,drew, and 2 other guys he had come in and help) once he finished most of the work we hooked up the amp and it was at 4 ohm and it was pretty nice i mean i was expecting louder and then he hooked it up to 1 ohm and DAMN. they came alive. I played a slowed down Six 12's and the first note is high and so yeah it was loud, but not the loudest but then it hit the second note which is low and holy shit. haha. after it was all done we sat in the shop listening to songs for like 20 minutes.

sounds great. plays low stuff, plays short stuff, almost anything i throw at it, it can play. I like it better than my previous setup except i do believe the Q played low stuf a tad better and definately more window flex not like that matters, it was just cool to look at but this one makes me roof flex like a helll of a lot more than the Q probably bc it is firing into the cabin. Anyways its definitely louder which was my goal and i love being able to turn around and see the subs pound. After a little bit of "Beats to My Van" i had a headache.

haha that right there should tell you enough. if im ever bored and driving by best buy or circuit city ill always go in and look at the subs just to see what the ppl that work there think and it puts the biggest smile on my face when i ask them "hey what do you think has better sound quality... my FI Q or this alpine type e" and they say the alpine. or even better "can this handle as many watts as a Fi BTL?" and they say oh man this would blow that away. dumbasses. anyways yeah it was a little pricier than i wished for but they did a damn good job and im actually bringing it back tomrw for Drew to finish everything. He was so great on my first one i went ahead and requested him for this build. probably tomrw night or tuesday i will get the rest of my phone pictures up and some new ones with a real camera and possibly a video.

yeah it was pricey but i knew that going into it and i wasn't confident enough to build a box like this. It was 700 for building the box, amp install, 4 gauge wiring throughout, materials, red suede for two sides of the box and two trim panels, one 15" neon stick, an amp kit, and one diffuser plate. But i mean im in a quartet and i can make 100-200 for one gig so it wasn't impossible for me to come up with the money. I still got my 15" Q and whenever i have time im thinking about building some experimental boxes to see how good of a box i can make i just wanted someone who knew what they were doing to build this. it was worth them doing it though because i could not have made it look as nice as they did. plus the guy stayed past 1am when he only had to be there till 7pm one night and another night i drove buy on the way to the movies and saw his truck there a couple hrs after closing so i mean this guy went beyond his required time for this thing and made sure it was perfect and boy does the result prove that. i love it.

33hz (32.9 i think)

Right now i have a 15" FI Q with BP and im trying to sell it. A guy came up that was interested and before i was asking more but i really need the money quick so i said $200 for sub or $299 for sub and box. I made the box so cheap because it was custom made for my car. Anyways, to get to the point he only has 170 now and so he was thinking of trading and he has some 12" audiobahns and i dont want that and then he has a jensen vm9312. Currently i have an Alpine 9886 so my question to you guys is should i trade and get the headunit or is my alpine better and i should just wait for cash? Thanks, Alex

everything is almost done. the box isnt gunna be as big as i wanted because there was no way to fit it in the trunk. so instead of 5.75 after disp, itll only be 4 which i know is on the small side but my only options are to do 3 subs with max air space or 4 subs with 1 cu ft each, which it might be a little more than 1 actually. it should be done for sure by friday and ill have pics up. maybe a video shortly there after.

ive had the same problems with volvos. i cant find an alternator higher than 100-120 amps for my 99' S70. i have heard however that (atleast where i live) there is a guy that you can take your stock alternator too and he will re-wire it or do something to beef it up. im looking into that.

good idea.

stick with the alpine yeah thats what my gut told me. thanks. just wanted to see what others thought.

well today sucked... my subs were supposed to come tomorrow but now i have to wait until the 10th. I'm going crazy without bass!!!!!!!!!!!

I just ordered 4 10" Dcons along with a Sundown 1000D amp but i accidently ordered the dual 4-ohm subs and i need the dual 2-ohm to get the correct power. If anyone can change this before they are built/shipped and let me know. I was in a rush and wasn't paying attention. Thanks, Alex P.

the problem was solved but just sitting here on the forum all day beause im so anxious to get my subs so just wondering here but any idea on when they will come? I know it said something like up to a week for making them and i just ordered them last thurs i think so is it gunna be next week before i get them or possibly this week? Sorry just really excited. im sure many of you understand haha Since you have a semi-special order, it might day a day or two extra. But no worries, the moment we have your tracking number we will update your order. alright. thanks.

that is one awesome choice by you could not have made a better choice. i would wire them all down to two ohms on the saz1000d in a series and parallel wiring configure. wouldn't i want to wire them to 1 Ohm?

Im buying 4 10" Pioneer Premiers Dual 2-ohms. They are rated at 350 RMS and 1000 Max each. Here is the link ==> http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8631_Pioneer+Premier+TS-W1007D2.html?utm_source=froogle&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=froogle I want an amp that will give each sub around 200-250 watts a piece. No more than 250. And i would like the keep the price below $300 if possible but if you know something that would be worth it and is close to 300 go ahead and post. Also it has to be a Class D amp. Im going to order this all this week so i need to make my decision on my amp. Thanks guys.

i was just reading this and.... i got four of these 10'' monsters on they way!

yupp i was going to put that but i didnt know if they wanted that out there but yeah they are making it so that the sundown will work and ill get all 1000+ watts. So now i got the subs/amp on the way and box design so once i gt the subs ill be working on it. thanks so much for everyones advice. im really eager and optimistic about this build. thanks guys.

absolutely LOVE the design. this will help me immensely, however there is one issue... i already ordered the Sundown 1000D.

great call going with the dcons thanks. im extremely exctied about this install.

i just ordered 4 dcons and the 1000D about 2 hrs ago maybe. but thanks

thanks.

thanks so much. tomrw i wont be able to get on till night but maybe around lunch ill be on but ill just respond next time i hear back. this is helping so much.
