Front Stage speakers

All main power and ground wires are 2/0 welding cable, wire for amps are 4gauge knu wire. Sub amplifier wires will get upgraded when more power is purchased later down the road. Im undecided on keeping the factory radio or installing a new bezel and buying a double din h/u or 80prs.

I dont have the subwoofer yet, enclosure was spur of the moment and Im very happy with the outcome. I still have the US Acoustics Mike amplifier for sub duty till I purchase a bigger amplifier next year. Front Stage amplifier is undecided. I have (2) SSA 6.5" Evil mids and (2) SB Acoustic SB29RDCN-C000-4 tweeters in hand, just needs to be installed. All wiring is in hand, alternator still undecided, batteries need to be purchased as well. Tint is another thing on the to do list.

I have more pictures but they are all over 5mb, which I notice wont upload.

Enclosure designed and built by a local builder. 3.81 @ 31hz before sub 3.6 @ 32 hz after sub (15" SP4)

Sub is badass man, love it

to the forum, start a build log if you can

I knew the connects just couldnt remember from where since I been using a gas forklift lately. Very cool and creative idea man.

Tuned in man

Oh yeah as far as frequency points, 3500hz is good start and work your way down for the mids. Some people like to overlap frequencies on mids and tweeters (ie. Mids 2500hz, Tweeters 2000hz), others underlap frequencies (ie. Mids 2500hz, Tweeters 3000hz). While some just keep it simple and cross them off at the same frequency (ie. Mids 2500hz, Tweeters 2500hz). As far as where the frequencies for the mids and highs end up, that is going to come down to testing, listening habits and your preferences. Test mids by themselves and vice versa, test tweeters alone. This way you can test the drivers and see where stress at so you can back down. For example at full tilt your mids may not like a 45hz or 63hz low pass filter, they may like 80hz or 100hz, so adjustments on the fly can help if your active settings are at your fingertips. Active is fun, dont be afraid. Ask any questions and we will help, or I can at least try. Haha good luck man

Ditch the 6x9s in the rear door, put that money elsewhere. I have the eminence and love them myself but wanting them for a 2way setup in a daily is useless. Yes just like the PRVs, they get loud on limited power but they have a narrow bandwidth vs car audio/raw drivers. Also everything doesnt have to be ugraded at once, do what you can now and some later. That's the joy of car audio, it's never ending. Nice equipment man

Nice list of equipment, make sure to post a build log.

time for some bass

Cool build man, what happened to the Accord and BTL?

Yeah they can be hard to get too on the forums, but they are very helpful over the phone.

Really wanted to take part this year, but just bought a new car last week. Enjoy the deals fellas

Great scores

Cool video and love that truck.

Your enclosures always amaze me, didn't know they made subwoofers.

Enclosure looks badass so far

congrats man

That escalated quickly , what mids and highs again?

I was just in Tampa last month for my school's classic, love the Florida car audio scene. Have fun and yes post pictures/videos if you can here.
