My New Subs/box

no havent been to a show with this box.but im know it's a little louder.

next show around me wont be for a while.

as for the fuse.it should be at lesat 18 inches from the batt

 

!

this new box is causing a few probs.

today on my way home i was booming in 5 o'clock traffic like normal.

so i got the my bass mekanik cd and played the sub test and right in the middle of it my subs just stopped playing.

i was only 5 min from home so i just played reg music(at least it still played something).

so i check it with my meter and it was getting power but wasnt lighting up.the fuse in the dist box was fine.so i took it out,opened it up and the internal fuse was fried.(these old amps have internal fuses).luckily i had an agu fuse.in it was a 30 amp but, all i had was a 40.i hope it will be fine.

i'm eithe rgoing to have to wire it at 4 ohm mono to my M50 for 245 watts rms or get a bigger amp.i even had a fan on it and it still over heated.maybe more like over loaded it.


well its all back in,but it started raining pretty bad here.so i'll do the rest tomorrow.it still beats the snot out of those subs,but now i'm scared.

hell i may just put my polks(single 4 ohm coils) in that box.one amp running a 2ohm mono load was no prob,but 2 amps running at 2 ohms is just a lil too much.

 

i am soo seroiusly thinking of this thing.!!!!

600 at 1 ohm at 12v.how much at 13.8?

 

oh i forgot to say that i had the gains on both channels a little higher than normal.oops.

the last speakers that it was running was my mids/hi's front and rear,and the gains were at just a hair under half.

so i may have accidentally screwed my self.now i know why with the bass on -24 and the sub vol on 1/4 turn it still pounded like crazy.on the 4ch amp.



i guess i'll go back to my M50's running the subs ,and keep the gains all the way down.

 

i'm really thinking of a system rewire.

new rca's and a remote.new ground (not on the seat bolt)just too damn lazy to do it all.

Rockford Fosgate - 16' Twisted Pair RCA Cable - RFI-16

are these good enough?i need three runs and don't want to spend way too much,but dont want crap either.
the next one up are 30 for double twisted 16ft. each

 

**** it!

i'm removing the back seat tomorrow and the passenger side to get to what i need to get to and still be able to drive it.lol.

imma clean up that spaghetti mess i have back there once and for all!!

 

its not too old under the false floor.just messy.

last night when i went in there to remove the amp i just got mad at how messy it actually is,and one of my rca cables is starting to show its age.(had it from a previous install)

ok.then.i'm off to get my stuff,but the seats come out.

 

man i'd love to get one but i also love these old school amps i have.

i just got in from outside.i took apart the whole inside of the truck except for the doors.will do those in the morning.

i got some peel-n seal.to do the doors and the rear panels.to kill some road noise in the back.i also just rubber coated the rear panels for extra deadning.


i'll have photos up soon

 

Edit.!!!

Nine 5 Has Been Ordered!!

ALONG WITH SOME NEW WIRE!

 

the spaghetti mess.

THE CLEAN UP.


THE GUTTING


HOLY JEBUS WHAT A MESS.

 

i'm not reusing the 12's im going to put my trusted kicker back into action.

i'm putting my polks in the new box and most likely selling the orions.

i'll run the polks at 2 ohm mono.so when i compete with the new amp i can switch boxes to try and see which ones louder.

first i have to get all this done.lol

i'm going to get a piece of wood cut to run my wires under it to the amps in grey carpet.so it all looks pretty.then when the new amp gets here it wont be too hard to swap them out.i'mm hoping the nine 5 will fit where the 4 ch sits.
like this but with the new one..
