New build
 

Well its been some time but myself (Basstronics) and a friend (Car Godz) will be uniting to put together a fairly large install for a customer. The funny thing about this customer is he works for a local mom & pop car audio store. So he can already get decent stuff and installs, but he wants something exceptional.

So without further ado:




What you see there is a 12" Blitz audio cheapie, a Elevation Audio Pro sub ($350- 30 Lb beast) and the 18" DC Audio Level 5 Carnage subwoofer. Weighing in at 90 Lbs.

This latest build will showcase my latest box construction design. Im fairly confident this idea is original and Ive never seen anything like it since Ive been doing audio since the mid 90's.

:yahoo:

ROFL... that last one is bending the trunk in. :emotlol:

should be amusing to watch this come together...

this'll be cool to see. probably sound good to with all the subs have different qualitys and ideal frequencies

lol, oh god no. The other subs are just for reference.

Only that big sub will be used...

Its capable of 20,000 watt RMS burps.

20,000 watts rms! Amazing... I wish i could see the pics, but im at work right now.

Sell me the cheapie for really cheapie.

wtf 20,000 watts

"my stereo pushes more horsepower then your engine!"

k that does make a bit more sense when i think b4 i talk

If your interested Im sure the guy will sell it.

I can't wait to see the outcome, and in the first pic the reflection from the 18 looks like a ripple in the trunk....cool. What kind of vehicle is it going in?

Traiblazer

Hifonics mm4000.1 pumping out 4000 wrms daily...

Well I know you are going ported box? What you going to tune for I know it can get low right like 25 to 30hz at 4000 watts..its going to hurt? Good way to spend a grand though!

25 to 30 Hz? You crazy?

This is going to be 38-45 Hz area. That sub probably doest play that low.

We just got a Dayton Woofer Tester 3 to get T/S specs. This sub doesnt come with T/S specs as they are all custom one of's. I think this sub was $600...

There level 4 18 shows 28.9hz thought that one would hit around the same range. Wonder why they haven't posted any specs on it? If they are made to order I wonder what problems that present when trying to match two subs together. Oh well I can never see my self paying over a c note for a sub anyway...LOL!

doubt that can handle 20k rms

20K WRMS for burps?

The MFG claims it will... If hes going to warranty it I doubt he would give an inaccurate number ;)

We put over 2KWRMS into a sub that only handles 500 WRMS on burps before...

A burp is all it takes sometimes to win a bass contest. LOL

Ya I know.

For a sub of its size 20Kwrms isnt that outlandish.

The motor on it is bigger than some subs...

why do they still use ferrite magnets instead of neodymium?

I think because the hotter they get they lose some intensity in there magntic field. Also they are extremly powerful, and a magnet the size required for some subs could do some damage if it isn't handled properly....Here's a comparison s Neodymium magnet the size of a golf ball can wipe a credit card or send some metal things flying.

exactly. why have a 90lb ferrite magnet, if you could substitute a 10lb neo?

Because an equivalent neo magnet would make the sub way way way to expensive...

Neodymium is a rare element and cost about a $1 a gram. There are 453.6 grams in 1 pound.

pfft. so? :p

We have a meeting of the minds tomorrow. I will be inspecting the sub and help doing T/S Specs on it.

I know you got this going on you site Ryan but keep us posted here as well. I can't wait to see what it looks like.

:eek:

48 Hz Fs before break in...

We put it on the Dayton Woofer Tester 3 tonight...

:coolio:

Damn that thing is huge. 90 Lbs sub? I really hope you dont have to take it out to reach the spare tire :lol:

Spare tire is under the vehicle.
