gotcha. was just like.....wtf is he doing with a sealed box that big?!? lol

assumed the dark spots were wiring terminals or something lol.


square subs are designed to maximum surface area for spl applications so they have pretty crappy sound quality. its a trade off that some like and some don't and i'm not a spl person.


And the ports are so small and so long to get the desired tuning frequency yatta yatta yatta. Also the ports take away quite a bit of the box volume so that it get's down to around 1.3 lol Just didn't want to seem like a dumb ass. I do all my own builds. To my desires. ;) Let's see your system?

E/ putting in the subwoofers I was scared shitless, there isn't a millimeter to spare... I designed it to fit without the grilles and later desired the grills. Luckily there is 1 1/2 of breathing room if not a bit more!

Ouch. :( What year? I am thinking of selling the tahoe and by a Ducatti 1000c or a little smaller. Been dirtbiking since I was 2. Started on a 50cc with training wheels. I usually don't get ranted on for my box size. It's usually my tuning. Who has ever heard p3 15"s at 20htz? *I have I have!* Sounds bomb to my ears. But I guess people like musical rhythm... :P

E/ If you are ever in Phoenix, AZ hit me up. I have quite a bit to show off. ^_^

lol ya its a bit uncommon to see tuning that low.

was a 1996 2500 turbo diesel. injector pump and pmd burned up(would of ended up around $3k to fix and while i was under the hood it became apparent my turbo was almost done and i had oil/dirt mixture in the top end lol.

been messing around on dirt bikes for last couple years myself and have been hitting motocross tracks a few times a week usually until my suburban died lol.
