Sundown X18 build

[Mattl 0]

Hey everyone,

 

Im starting a build on my 99 isusu trooper.  My X18 dual 2 ohm sub came in today and i ordered a hifonics zeus 1800w rms amp a couple days ago for a temporary amp.  Im planning on getting a sundown amp later on.  Im going to start on my box when it gets a little warmer out.  Im going to be posting pictures of the build over the next few months.  To start off, heres my sub.  Hope you guys enjoy

Will sound good with the correct box and wiring. Good luck with your install

Zeus isn't that bad. Uses the same board as the brx series. It wont be 1800rms though.

I'm eager to see this build. Sundown Xs are nasty subs.

Dam that sub just makes my jaw drop every time I look at it and every time I add it in "MyCart"

Im almost finished with the box.  I just have to double baffle it, cut the hole, and paint it.  Heres some pics

 

Also, full credit to Bassink for designing the box.

Made some good progress today.  I double baffled it, cut the hole, and filled in all of the screw holes.  Im going to be covering the box with some fabric soon.  heres some pics.

yeah I know lol I already cut the wood to 35 inches for the x15 box so I had to figure out how to get the inside dimensions the same with the wood I had.

[EPerez 236]

Ohh gotcha lol well it looks good though

Eesh, gotta say when I first saw the surround roll on the X series I was a little put off, thought it looked goofy.  And now every time I see one I want to fill a Suburban with them.

 

I love that basket too, I'm not sure I could decide to mount ass out or conventional.

Here's a little update. The box is almost done, just touching up a few things. Il post a pic soon. I'm hopefully ordering the next set of things soon which are: 175a high output alternator, a xs power battery, a 500w hifonics zeus amp for door speakers, rockford fosgate front door speakers, and some wire for the big 3. I'm going to install it when it gets a little warmer out.
