    Trying to help my stepson into the rabbit hole

    My stepson has befriended the 217 bassheads club, so I’m helping him ease into it.

    It’s an 8 cu. ft. box tuned to 35 Hz, for a Rival C15.22 on a Pioneer GM-D9601. The doors will house a pair of Silver Flute 6.5’s, and a pair of Phoenix Gold Zero Point Z130 5.25’s. The doors will run a Pioneer GM-D8604. The tweets will be a pair of TBI HDSS run off the Blaupunkt head unit. This is all in his ‘02 Tahoe. This is the first box I’ve built. WINISD says 130 dB in this box, so we will see... He says he wants more of an SQ system 95% of the time, and big sub just so he feels like he fits in with the other guys when they all meet up and hang out...

    I love this part
    Measure with mics, mark with chalk, cut with torch, grind to fit, sand to finish, paint to match.

    Do it for them.

    It's nice to see this become a family hobby.

    Nothing wrong with being a little louder.

    He’s a mechanic, so we trade work. He is installing all the mods on my car, and I pay him by stereo equipment and shitty advice, lmao!!!

    DAMN that's a beast of an enclosure!
    They might say "don't try this at home" but nothing about not trying it at your friend's house.

    Re: Trying to help my stepson into the rabbit hole

    Update: He and his buddies blew the sub showing off, lmfao! I had ordered a Harrison Labs subsonic filter, and I told him to wait until it was installed bcuz it was calculated to need one, and his amp didn’t have one. He is living and learning, lol!

    I must be too, though, bcuz our next set up has to be below the window line or some shit, so he can be in a different class. So, I guess we are going with (2) 12’s on the Pio GM-D9601. That little amp kicks some serious ass. For 1200 rated rms, it had his rear window wiper slapping...

    Oh, and I guess I have a fourth job now, as I’m the official box builder for Team217bassheads, lmmfao!!!

    Re: Trying to help my stepson into the rabbit hole

    New subs, and box #2! 2 Massive Audio Hippo 84’s. Built the box to 1.5 cubes per sub with 20 cubic inch slot port, 45’s in each corner. These little suckers weigh a freakin ton and are built like tanks. They sound great. Built the amp rack into the middle of the boxes, so it’s all one big unit. Apparently, he’s going to cover it with some kind of material that is like 3” black hair with white tips, lmfao! Anyway here’s a pic of try #2...
