Got Bass? Spring box build is here! E34s too!

[nrubenstein]

Nice! So, what's the ETA on shipping? :)

12" boxes will ship next week, e30 boxes will go out in the AM..I screwed up and called UPS too late for a pickup today. I will likely just go to Fedex and drop them in the AM, they are all packed and ready to go.

You wanted extra carpet, right?

BTW: I still have 3 E30 10" boxes not sold.

[nrubenstein]

Yes, extra carpet would be most appreciated.

Having been and done a very small part of this box build, let me assure you of a few things:

A. The Quality is out standing.
B. In my very honest opinion, these are damn near stealing a man's time and hard work. You wont find craftsmanship, thought, blood, sweat and most of all time for a cheaper price.

It's astounding that Luke's still got 3 un-sold boxes. WELL worth the money. The packaging alone is a custom box for your custom box.

2 left, get on it!

I found a badass new woofer that is one hell of a deal:http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=199083

Bump! I have to build 9 boxes this week. If you buy today it will ship monday. They are already packaged, ready to go, waiting for your address.

Just send you money via paypal, right? Ok, I want, by the time you read this money will be sent!

[StereoInstaller1]

This is an an all time record: from payment to shipping label printed and box taken to UPS store in under 1/2 hour

Seriously insane! I got the email and just figured you printed it out as a matter of keeping track. I guess I'll have to order a sub sooner rather than later:p:p

[StereoInstaller1]

FUCK.

I have never gone to a UPS store to ship.

They are all CLOSED on SUNDAY!

You guys who got emails, I will be at the UPS store tomorrow morning at 8:30 to get your boxes on their merry way. You west coast guys might see them as soon as wednesday, and you all should have tracking numbers in the email from UPS/PayPal

Any issues, gimme a shout.

Can you confirm for me that an Infinity Reference 1060w will fit? I'm just worried about the depth, since I have no concept of what kind of space I will be looking at for the box. Hmmm...maybe a 1062w instead. Is dual voice coil really an advantage? I don't know shit about this stuff.

LOL, I just saw your UPS update and wondered why you had a UPS store that was open on Sunday. Mystery solved! No worries from me, I wasn't even expecting a box to be sent out for a week or more. You are already WAY ahead of my expectation :D

Did you see the woofer I posted about? If you are using a half of a 4 channel amp or using a 2 channel for bass, get one.

You could feed that thing 300 watts RMS and blow your head off.

Box, amp, woofer, the whole damn deal for about $350, less than what a local shop charges for their idea of a custom box.

I didn't see it before but I have now. I'm looking at a lot of subs since there's no big hurry (I don't actually have a stereo atm). What kind of mounting depth should I be looking for? I'm not sure what kind of variation 10's have, but as long as I know how deep to NOT go I'll be safe.

[StereoInstaller1]

The big deal is all about "loading" your amp.

Simple way: If you have a 2 channel amp OR half of a 4 channel, you want 4 ohm single voice coil.

If you have a small "mono" (TRUE 1 channel) amp OR the subwoofer channel of a 5 channel amp, you likely want a 2 ohm load. You get 2 ohms from 2) 4 ohm voice coils, thus DVC is desirable.

Any questions about it, PM or post the EXACT brand name AND model number of your amp, I will tell you what makes the most sense to get.

And if you're bridging a 4-channel amp, you probably want a dual 4 ohm since most 4-channel amps are not happy bridged into 2 ohms.
