btw, im buying 2 of those 1200.1s, a 300.2, and an 800.2

dude jsut cuase people in your area dont do it, and its like "new" to you, doesnt mean it is here. so many ppl do it, i like it so what does that matter? this thread is about a wall. the guy that suggested the wall has a van with a sealed diamond, 9 kx1200.1s, 16 12" ssd's, and a few kicker comp sets. its a VERY clean setup..i doubt hes the type "leading me down the wrong path" http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m282/jr...15/DSC00011.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m282/jr...slamfest021.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m282/jr.../Picture902.jpg

m5, what advice are you talking about? using the drivers i do? i choose those. using a certain driver is completely different from what theyre talking about (securing the wall in the car) but im not gonna argue with yall, ill post pics tmoorow when i start leveling the floor where the back seats were and find mounting points. neon, i have most of the stuff i need for both the Mini cooper system and the explorer, which will also get a wall, but its hard to get things done when i work 40 hrs a week, plus school plus HW and studying, then working on cars...if all goes good, in a year hopefully ill be getting hired on the fire dept, and ill have a ton of time to get this done.

lol at how the sensor edited when i said a-hole

correct me if im wrong, and i too, am not trying to be an arseho, but where did i say i wasent going to bolt it down? i said im building outside the car, and its going to be removeable IF I EVER WANT TO GO BACK TO STOCK, not removeable as in this week ill have it in, next ill take it out. just becuase i didnt mention that IF i remove it id have to unbolt it, doesnt mean that i wasent going to use bolts.... do you honestly think id put a box right behind my head with a 65+lb sub in it, and expect it to stay there? i mean, honestly .... /rant

take pics when ui put the rubber trim back on

did you just glass right up to the body, and when you paint, your gonna paint the door jam as one whole piece since its flush with the side of the wall trim peice now?

k

ugh...same way any other wall is built? lol

hey, if i dont like the 1 18" mt, i can always take the baffle/port off, and re build a new one. the sides/bottom/top would stay the same either way, so i could just make a new baffle.

i had 5 MT motors in the trunk at one time, and i didnt really notice a big difference. and thats a good 55lbs each motor give or take a few. at least 250lbs, and i think i had 4 batteries in there too... k

X2, I know that the MINI doesnt have a lot of space, but I dont see the point in install a wall unless your going with some serious audio back there. Why not a pair of really good 10s or 12s? Maybe another MT 12 to go with what you got? I feel what you want to do, but me personally, its a nice car but I would not do a wall in it. I got a 04 Crown Victoria with about 11 cubic feet of free trunk space in the center, but the only way I would do a wall in my car is if I was going to do 4 15s or 8 12s sealed or ported, just something crazy loud for a weekend/daily car. if im going to run 2 mt 12's (60lbs each) might as well run 1 18mt in a wall. first off, the seats are 36lbs, so that takes 36 away, making up for some of the extra wood for the wall. plus i cant fit more than one sub in the back trunk with how i want to mount the amps. im not doing the wall becuase i have to, im doing it cuase i like walls, so might as well do it also, you said your trunk is 11 cu ft. mine is about 3.

i didnt mean it like that when i said removable.... i meant like when the day comes that i take it out, its not going to look as if there was a wall in there. ill be able to put the seats back in, and itll look 100% stock. all the sides will have trim panels and the back cabin will be sealed off from the front, as a wall is supposed to be....im not just putting a big box in there, if thats what you thought. lol anyways, subs... i have my mt motor at the house, i could recone to an 18", and have the 2 1200.1s strapped on it for a good 2400w rms or maybe 4 12" type r's, maybe 600ish watts each from the 2 amps or 2 15's, not sure which though. or 6 10s, not sure which either. the mt will cost maybe 100-120 to get reconed (including the actual cone)

what you guys suggest? i mostly hear 2.5 net for the 12. power is 2 kx1200.1's strapped, so at least a good 2400w rms. ive already taken all the measurments and everything, this is about 3.8 gross, so i may shorten it a little, leaving me more room for amps on the top. port- what should i tune to? its for rap music. slot? aero? heres sorta what its gonna look like. the yellow will be double 3/4"

bump

thats what im thinking, becuase ive heard my 15" mt in a box with 4 aero's @ 40 hz, and i liked the sound. you think i should go aero, being as the baffle is angled? slot would be harder... if aero, what size/how many, etc. can you use PVC and just get like a flare for the end? any particular kind? and NET size of the box, 2.5 cubes? bigger, smaller?

can someone finish this diagram for me? keep in mind, i will have TWO sets of horns, and TWO relays. so i need to know how to hook up the one switch for both sets of horns, to both relays. also, i just need one fuse for both power wires going to the relays right? what amperage should i get? the horns are Hella Supertone 85115's.

my uncle has an 06 z06 black on black grandfather has an 81 fire engine red vert and a black 01 coupe dad has an 81 fire engine red hard top my dads was on the cover of Corvette Fever in Feb. of 2002. they took pics of all the firefighters and cops with vettes and he got the cover and a 2 page article

ok i have a pair of these: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.c...tnumber=294-650 and a pair of these: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.c...tNumber=264-422 the B&Cs say 8 ohm nominal, but then it says Re: 5.2 ohms. so that means that theyre actually 5.2 ohms each? and the Seleniums say 8 ohm nominal, but it says Re: 5.9 ohms. im gonna wire 1 B&C and 1 selenium in parallel to ch1, and the 2nd B&C and 2nd selenium in parallel to ch2. at first i was thinking it would make a 4 ohm load per channel, but would it really make a 2.76 ohm load (5.2 ohm and 5.9 ohm) ?

wow

both mids are the same impedance, if anything, theyre .5 ohms off at the most...

load wont be below what the amp can handle.....how can one mid get more power than the other?

im asking for an explanation as to HOW that can happen....ive been asking that for like the last 3 posts and neither you nor M5 have answered that specifically......can you? not trying to be a dick, im just wondering. i know you and m5 have a total different perception of what SQ is compared to what i consider SQ....

what exactly will it do to the driver/amp if i wire 2 different mids to one channel? thats what i want to know.

well first off, as ive said 908345 times before, what sounds good to me, and what sounds good to you, is 2 totally different things. im not into all the imaging and 100% SQ chit. it doesnt interest me, period. im happy with how they sound how i have them set up, and we can leave it at that. so lets see here. say i was to make a DIY component set and run active. your saying i need an amp for the mids and an amp for the tweets? ive seen NUMEROUS people on any forum make a DIY component set, and run both mids and tweets off the same amp with the mids/tweets wired in parallel.
