behold the power of the BL matched with sundown

[jonbearsmt 919]

so i noticed last week that my lows were not making my heart beat off tune...

i thought perhaps i am just getting used to my subs and it was time to upgread

today me and my sister went to the store, i was on the way back and i turned it up.. and the low end was there.. but not like it used to be.. to i whipped in behind a big box store and poped my trunk.. and what did i see my subs jumping out of the box at me!

i broke, a buncha screws... and there were a buncha screws that pulled out of the wood.

its maybe time to build a new box.

im very glad that the cone had the tensil pad otherwise im sure it would have rubbed thru

no sprider crackage no other sign of wear!

thanks fi

haha, that's awesome...but some what annoying too i guess...lol

i had that happen when i had 1 Audioque HD3 15 ran off of a 1500w amp in this crown vic i used to have.

So, i vowed never to use drywall screws as subwoofer screws again, hehe.

This box i have now, i make sure that when i made the double baffle that i cut the hole perfect.

I had just enough room to get the sub into it's hole but me and a friend couldnt do it because we had to perfectly drop it in and we couldnt grab it from underneath.... so i took the rubber gasket off the sub and ran PArtsExpress's speaker foam tape all the way around the hole then put the sub in. Super tight fit.

I then predrilled and ran #10 wood screws in there.

The subs are mounted vertically but because the cutout hole is made so perfect, the weight isn't just resting on the screws which helps a lot.

It looks like your subs are facing up.

Instead of building another box, turn the subs, make new drilling points. Fill the already made drilled points with glue and let it cure.

For the new points, do one of the following-

Hurricane nuts and screws

Inverted bolt with lock washer AND lock nut(if you can find one to fit the bolt, if not, Threadlock the nut onto the bolt.

yeah i was pissed off!

that box is heavy and A TIGHT FIT!

i had to mad handle that box as high as you see in that pic, take out aqll the screws and try to run stronger ones at an angle to catch new wood....... im scared i might have got a touch to sideways on one of the screws at the base of the gasket basket point.

ill have to watch it i maybe looking at a recone if it reacts the way i think it will

NICK, how much a a recone for 15 bl d1 shipped to 78666.

thanks

thats the sub that the local audio house used when thay built my box, i left a sub with them so thay could cut the hole PERFECT and i told them that...

anyhow it was not perfect on that side and those are the screws thay used, when i picked the box up i went home threw the last sub in and droped it in the box, i used wood screws

the subs face back, and the bottom screws broke, i have never heard anyone enjoy there box faced up close to the deck.. but i did wanna try it one day.

i wanna build another.. this one is so thin.. 3/4 mdf single a crazy brace i was embarrased to take a pic of the inside of the box.. so i didnt..

i want a nice one.. i nice blue printed super box

[shizzzon 461]

oh i see, def build another box then.

Double baffle it making it flush with the surface of the box so you can practically drop it in without screws and not fall out, that's how tight mine are.... of course i used screws too, haha.

thank you sir

I have had issues with my TC sounds OEMs pulling out too, they are 48lb subs or something like that. I tend to always do a double baffle on subs for the structural integrity.
