finally got my subs in and omg!

[calvin 0]

Ok so ups delivered my 2 15" btl's today and needless to say I was anxious to put them in. So I used a box that FC designed for me but the cutout is too big. I put them in anyways and get it sop hooked up. Yo I played the first song and I couldn't believe how loud it was! The 2 subs were just as loud as my 4 15's that I had in my previous setup! I can't believe how loud it is! And I was talking about getting 2 18's! To say the least I am very satisfied!

I have to keep the gain down because my lights were dimming and also because the subs are leaking a lot of air because of the cutout! Just to imagine that these subs will be louder is amazing!

Good looking out on all the advice the forum members threw my way! And a special shoutout to Big John!

what did i tell ya hommie.

[calvin 0]

What can I say?! You tole me right! I mean these things really hit hard! To I got a headache after like 15 min! Once they get the proper box and electrical...........scary! But yes I am totally satisfied! I will never go astray from this type of sub! I was laughing nonstop from the enjoyment!

[filtor1 13]

I look forward to the pics. Glad to hear you are happy!

[jonbearsmt 919]

it is a GREAT feeling... !

pics and vids are a must!

[calvin 0]

i will get around to that today. just that i have never posted pics or vids on here b4 so i am going to have to find my way around and it is hard to do that at work and work! but i will put a couple pics up now. vids will have to wait lol.

and man it def is a great feeling! i cant believe how these subs sound! and man o man once i get a proper sized box and electrical it will be monstrous! i even have the gain on halfway, bass boost fairly low, and sub control on the headunit on 0 and that chit still is loud as fudge. a box vs. a weak box is night and day.

i have a lot of work still to do. i need more electrical, the right sized box, and i actually need to install all this stuff properly. but when it is done it will be glorious.

Turn that SOB off! Try and get a hold of a DMM and set your gains correctly too. I don't want to see you burn up one of those subs!!!

[calvin 0]

no it isnt screwed in but i actually am disconnecting it until i get everything straight.

yeah i know kharps. i thought they would fit but they wouldnt. i am not planning on playing it anymore until i get my box designed. this should be happening by next week. i am still waiting on my stuff from FC. once i get that all of the equipment will be secured!

i just wanted to get a feel of how they sounded so i played them for a couple of songs and took some pics. trust that the next pics you see will be a finished product!! btw what is DMM?

[jonbearsmt 919]

[BoomBoxB 0]

[calvin 0]

[BoomBoxB 0]
