I almost swallowed my tongue when I saw that woofer. It scares me. I think I'm going to go lay down in the fetal position now.

...although you'd expect nothing less coming from an SQ guy...

That looks like a MONSTER! I can't wait to see what happens with this!

Don't feel so bad man, it's still sitting on my coffee table. I go fetal everynight looking at that thing.

I dislocated my thumb the firs time I picked it up, haha

I'm gonna gain down to where I'm only drawing ~3500-4000. With the alternator and a couple batts, I'm not seeing much voltage drop in my near future.
unless your batts rest at 14volts or you have a 300amp alternator you will be seeing voltage drops.... even at 3500-4000rms. Remember, amps run most efficiently when they are running near full capacity.

I believe his DC alt claims 300amps so we'll see.

I talked to Rob at DC Power and it also shows on the invoice I got

1 DC Power 150/320 amp alternator

Heres a vid of me free airing the SMD sub. LIGHTLY. Also some voltage issues I was having but thats getting sorted out. DC Power FTW

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-PbcFIAJTU

That's a COOL video,

You are going to need at least 3 or 4 layers of Mat into all the interior of you Yaris, or will start to come apart!

I guess you need a box too! LOL

That was my old setup with 2 12" RE SX subs before they went more mainstream with their sub lineup.

You're exactly correct. I'm gonna need tons of mat and deadening. Only thing is, that's where I ran out of $$$. I just spent over $150 on the box material. When I do get the money, maybe I'll ship the car over to you, the the "sound deadener JEDI". Lol

More Build pics

Starting the box



Little bit of bracing, also to help witht the weight of the magnet







Had to do a little trimming in the upper corners



Cut out the false floor







Had to cut that into three pieces to get it to fit

What type of wood is that?
Any plans to glass the inside of the box or round the inside corners?

You'll want more than just mat... you want to use expaning foam inside the pillars. Foam comes in a can, you spray it in, it expands, then hardens. Increasing rigidity will be more beneficial than adding weight (lowering ressonance frequency). Have to be careful with the foam tho, foam can bend the sheet metal if you are careful.
