$600 Ballin On A Budget Build

Recommended Posts

SA-12 is a D4, VVX-12 will be a D2. More power from the amp plus the Skar is proven to get lower (which is what I'm looking for) as Jacob has stated many times. I know the SA get louder, but this is a DD and I like teh lowz!

Waiting on FedEx, should be here round 1-1:30pm. All I need is the HU and amp kit from them and it's install time!

Amp kit arrived. Everything is installed except for the hu. Waiting on stupid FedEx. Two trucks have already come down my street, one with my amp kit , and still no hu. :(

Oh yeah, decided against the regular batt in the back. With the AB100.1 bein at 2 ohms and my 140 amp HO alt, I think I should be fine for now. When I drop the amp to 1 ohm with the Skar I will just grab an AGM batt and do it right.

Should be fine. But I wouldn't call 140h/o

When the stock is an 80, yeah I would consider 140 and HO.

Not a big fan of skar. Have you thought about a 2nd SA12D4 so you could run a pair then a little larger amp to go 1ohm??

Looks good for minimal $, keep up the good work!!

Love the Skars. Great sounding daily subs that get low. Can't wait to get mine!

Yes, batt will be secured before it's all said and done with. I usually use an AGM batt, but had this one laying around. Might just get a house garbage can from Wally World and cut it down to make a battery case for it to set in.

Love my helpers. They actually ask about what things are and what they do while I'm installing them. They both show alot of interest in car audio, lol.

You're lucky...my brothers kids helped once and all they did was push the cones in on my door speakers.....

Robin is doing your enclosure?

Robin and BHE build ALL my enclosures including this one! Best enclosure builder in FL!

This last one I have now is the only one that wasn't built for me. This is one of BHE's 2.0^3 @ 30Hz standard 12" "prefab" boxes. Checkout BassHeadsEnt.net for pricing on anything from a small single 12 box like I have to a full custom install/wall with multiple subs and amps. Awesome company and great service!
