Looks good! When do you start on the box? Lemme see some more pictures of the thump-maker!

There is no telling, Im still getting it designed at the moment but even if it is done it wont go in for a minute. Here are a couple more pictures of SAX-125.2 installed:

[Don Ganso 13]

Dude, I really like your amp rack...

Good thing I'm way north of you or I'd probably be breaking into your trunk now...

[jcarter1885 995]

You would risk your life for an $8 board from Home Depot, I picked it out of the Book Shelf, Shelve Building section (already painted and cut to size exact/they have different sizes and colors available). But thanks for the compliment, this is my third time doing this but wanted to make this one a little more special than the last one and the padding underneath the amp does it.

Yeah dude, that padding must be like temperpedic amp bedness.

Haha, yeah I only have two and will be putting the other one under my other high amp I get in the future. I wish I had two more to put under my sub amp but I have padded feet for those right now.

[porkchop 304]

Sub looks familiar . I was actually really surprised when I saw that my Type R was taller.

Get this bitch in now!

Naw Im taking my time on this one and doing everything right incase I upgrade in the future, no shortcuts on this install just to hear it.

The box will be 3.75ft^3 @ 30Hz, working on final design with shizzzon (thanks man)

respected view !

looking good.

Since Im putting my amp on box I already have 4 padded feet for it but decided to see if I could find some more egg foam and I did, not much though it is only 10" x 10" but cant complain what you get for free. I will just center it behind the amp unless I can find some more of it at my Aunts house, here's a couple of pictures:

Yeah man thankx, Im actually looking for a good ole job now so I can speed this build log up some but it is coming slowly. Im trying to find someone to design me a temporary box until I decide to buy one from either Fisher Customs or Pound That Sound since they both do nice work. I still have your number and will get up wth you one of these days.

[jcarter1885 995]

I ordered some KnuKonceptz rca's Monday, one of these days after I get some more products in I will take one of those pictures with everything that is not in the car yet but will be going in there. So hang tight guys, I have not forgot about yall but its gonna be a slow build till more money comes in .

[Mac N Cheese 90]

Looking good!!!

[walker01s10 1]

Wait in line with Thumper. I'm hoping that he starts on my box soon. Give me a call and we'll have a beer.

[jcarter1885 995]

All RCA's and y-splitters have been purchased, just came from Home Depot and grabbed some Titebond II and clear silicone from Wal-mart earlier this weekend. On my last box I used nails and trying to figure out which route I want to go this time nails or screws? Since I dont want to rent any tools and havent bought any since I came home from college I may just have Home Depot do my cuts for me. I need to go and purchase a few clamps and some wood then I will be set to start on making me an enclosure.

I ordered 1 of the 4 Mach 5 Audio MLI-65's that will be used in this install (wanted to check it out before I bought all four), the rest are gonna be purchased some time next week for my birthday.

Yeah I remember you saying that in one of your post that you made (thats where the idea came from today while walking around Home Depot). Was it nice even cuts?

Yeah they do a good job, all cuts were exact to my dimensions, plus it makes it easy to fit in a car.

[jcarter1885 995]

Yeah the fitting in my car is another reason why I want them to cut it for me, dont have any friends with trucks like I did at school. Well thanks for the insight man

Glue and Silicone was purchased today:

[Don Ganso 13]

Wait for it...

[jcarter1885 995]

Thanks to bromo I have my enclosure designed and all I need to do is go buy some wood and get it put together. The enclosure will be 3.72 ft^3 @ 30.01Hz with 50.38 in^2 of port area.

Design Topic

[Kanaworm$ 292]

Nice progress!

[bigrank916 72]

Get them boys to cut your wood and lets get this thing started. Dont forget your too. It also helps to have suds off to the side. Im sure its a builing technique a few folks like to implement here!
