LOL!

 

this is hilarious

 

Im enjoying it....

 

shame on yall for picking on that poor kid

 

If theres one thing im sure of on this thread is this kids not poor.

At 16 my first vehicle only had 3 gears out of the 5 it was suppose too. And your dad did a good job at building you a box okay you did not do this all yourself just quit BS'ing us.

2nd off you had alot of positive comments about your setup until you forgot were alot older than you. So pull your foot out of your mouth and enjoy your setup. Im sure it sounds alot better than mine at least!

 

sorry for being an A$$

1. i did build this box all by myself my dad did not help me at all. all he did was buy the mdf and carpet for me thats it. so im not BS'ing you guys....
2. sorry again for being an a$$ this last weeks been hell.

 

how does it sound

 

man i remember when i was 16... i had to walk 25 miles to school and home up hill both ways. I worked 5 jobs and played 3 sports. I finally turned 17 and i bought my truck (i worked for every last cent of the truck). everyone doubted me when i said i could fit 3 mtx jackhammers under my seats without a seat lift... AND I DID IT!!!!!! I then posted it all over a forum and was bragging about how awesome my system was... man did i shut down all those old men!!! my system will blow all of them away!!! I then realized that i had mtx jackhammers (kicker L7) and it was just a bunch of noise. I could never actually hear what the song was because the words got drowned out. But man did i turn heads with the rattling noises of my truck falling apart!!!

 

I'm no expert, but you should have put in an LMI seat lift, that way you could have made the box a little taller and not have to cut a hole for the magnet.

Anyway, nice job. It looks preety good for a first timer, better than I could have done.

I did something similar, I replaced the stock audiophile sub with a Kicker comp VR 8" in the stock box. The stock box only has 3.5" mounting depth and the new kicker sub needed 4.25" so I added a 3/4" mdf spacer ring and mounted the sub. I still have about 1/2" clearence between the sub and carpet. I have no idea what the internal volume of the box is, so I stuck with the smallest required volume I could find. All in all it sounds pretty good for a single 8"

BTW I've got kids older than you pup.

 

it sounds good bumps how i want it lol

l
ol ^

 

i didnt really cut a hole i used a router to shave the mdf then befor i put the carpet on i enforced the mdf a lil with a lil peace of metal.

and thnx

 

cool

 

im just playing wit you... but you should get a seat lift

 

Everyone should lighten up on this kid. I find it very refreshing that anyone from this instant gratification, GIVE it to me now generation is tackling something from scratch. There's no reason to believe that he didn't build it himself, but so what if his dad helped him. My dad helped me with lots of stuff.

 

yo there is nothing wrong with being proud of your work. i would show off too if i built a difficult box, so what if its a kicker square or a 12w7, u built the box, it fits, it plays, so ftw, and it is DIY.
