About my subs (visit www.b2audio.com... for more info)
RAMPAGE XM
2012 had the seeds planted for the RAMPAGE. A direct derivate from the legendary & innovative X2C subwoofer with a 5″ voice coil. Although the RAMPAGE XM is based on a 4″ coil platform, its performance will not stand in the shade of its heritage. In many ways, it pushes the boundaries even further. The new basket offers better cooling with improved SAFT (Smooth Air Flow Tech) & has the ability of offering even more XMAX than the previous basket . 3.15″/ 80 mm peak to peak handled by the 315 mm / 12.4″ spiders , that are amongst the largest you will find on any traditional 15″ subwoofer (without the use of adapters), in addition the new basket offers a triple landing so you can customize the stiffness and spider size to your application.
OCAF
OCAF version II (Optimized Cooling And Flow) implemented in the new motor design has adapted the large flares from the X2C’s backplate. In addition the pole piece features a dual cooling system that leads the air more efficiently away from the voice coil. Even though the internal diameter of the coil is 4″, the outer diameter of 4.33″ makes this coil a widebody, coupled with an 8 layer tall winding, this design is made for daily torture or demo days!
The RAMPAGE XM’s motor keeps the same 10.24″ diameter as previous XM subwoofers, but the triple stack ferrite slugs are increased by 25%. Still we are able to keep the entire height of the motor to a mere 10% more than 2nd gen XM. With the longer Xmech, the added 10% comes into play.
Stiffness
Another tool was made for the XL composite dustcaps with embossed B2 logo. The half spherical design with wider wedges stiffens up the cone, offering greater stability, and helps keep that transient response tight. So when the bass drops its on point. Using a slightly wider strech foam surround there’s less mechanical parts that will limit your stroke.
About my amps:
The A1500.x is a True Dual Stereo Design providing better stereo separation and imaging as compared to traditional stereo amplifiers - the chassis being the only thing common between channels. In an effort to provide the very best signal to noise ratio and lowest distortion possible, 109 dB (A-weighted) and 0.027% THD+N the amplifier utilizes a Mirror Image Design with positive and negative output signals of each channel generated using identically mirrored circuitry. Each of the two channels is also a mirror image of the other. A1500.4 operates the current amplifier devices in class A/B operation and the voltage amplifier devices in pure balanced Class A mode offering a realism and truth to the source never before available from a mobile power amplifier.
From a design standpoint, the A1500.x utilizes separate PCBs for the voltage amplification stage (and each of the 4 channels has its own) and current amplification stage to maximize the signal to noise ratio so that it's dead silent. It has been designed from the ground up around the highest quality components available at any cost, including; Nichicon Fine Gold™ capacitors, Nichicon Muse™ audio capacitors, (8) On-Semiconductor complementary bipolar junction transistors per output section per channel, Burr Brown Op-amp and non-inductive resistors, all assembled on 4-layer heavy copper PCBs! Its dual stereo channels can be wired as two single channels with double the output voltage for applications where high power is required. Finally, it includes two pair of gorgeous LED output meters to indicate actual amplifier power for each of the 4 channels as well being used for self diagnostics during a fault condition.

Sometimes i suck at this :D Don't forget to watch the previous video's to see how this was built so far and so everything makes sense! You can also follow my instagram page to see daily updates and also live streams showing what i am up to while i am up to it! instagram.com/meade916 thanks for watching if you did! Thanks for all the great comments too i am eating it up. I love it!! thanks so much! :)
What made u under power them so much
Hey who makes those amp Rockford's Foagate ?
Hey steve love the amp rack plus the b2s subs.. Tht was a very unique and different frm all the other amp racks I've looked at cant wait to see the whole thing play and bassin loud lol..
Big fan ❤️
I know that sub box is going to awesome just like the amp rack!
Bro this isn't car audio anymore. Lol this is art. Love it dude, your work is amazing.
I'm working My ass off to afford stuff like this, when ever I fall back, this is the kinda guy that inspires Me to push harder
Hey Steve, love the vids. I'd wanna see a vid of one of the subs playing in the styrofoam packaging they came in, just to see what happens. Been watching since before the Tahoe rebuild with the original AA SMD's for the 30kw system and I can't wait to see how the Escalade ends up! It's already looking wild, so I know it's gonna slap.
Name a better build!!!? Best I’ve ever seen
Steve meade did his boys escalade called it the rezcalade that system is incredible
@@MS-qp3ju OMG LOL
hopefully there is some plexy glass in the box to show them beauties off! also too bad that audio control wasn't white to match it all love this build it's been a work in the making for a long time and glad to see it finally come together
all i can say is please pay attention before posting....go watch the previous 2 video's and report back.
White audio control is otw bruh!
@@BiGGBLUNT1 sometimes, i don't know why i waste my breath or my time editing these video's only for people to ask about something i just told or showed them haha
One of the most unique builds I've ever seen. Badass!
I’ve been following for well over 10 years and I’ve learned so much from watching Steve. The evolution of this guy’s workmanship and designs has evolved exponentially! I mean, Steve was always good. But this is some next level shit! Can’t wait to see it finished!
My OCD is loving the attention to detail especially how the color scheme is throughout the whole caddy!
Steve
I think those amps are one of the best looking amps there is out there
Really well built looking amps
I love them
Great job
Brother, those B2's aren't even hooked up yet and I can already hear them in Norfolk Va bro! Bad ass!!! I think I may go with B2 audio for my semi!!
You can't beat white and black as a color combo, it's so classy
One of the best Car Audio Doctor. This guy will have your system BEATIN
That’s awesome. I hadn’t seen anybody use toshiba link optical audio since the late 90s. It used to be amazing sound quality compared to coax back in the day. Not sure how it compares to other current day connection options but cool to see it still being used!
where have you been all these years, under a rock? i use it for everything. Almost all my vehicles use optical. All my home systems too.
Love SMD 😎😎😎😎😎
Sup Meade!! 😎👊
Great vid! Looks sick inside the Caddy all lit up!!
Absolutely beautiful build! Best in the business! 10 year fan!
God damn your craftsmanship is unreal man!!
That ice blue is just ridiculous, very cool, what our doing is the top of the top! I just love it👍
SO SICK BRO!!! The attention to detail and all around skill that's going into this and all of your builds is just nuts. Keep it up!
Looks badass
4:28 MY GUY COMING OUT WITH THE DRIP 🔥 🔥 KEEP IT UP SMD
Yo Steve this build is coming together fantastic i love the white and black theme 🙌 cant wait for the box build

Super dope. As soon as I saw the B2 subs I just thought of the the skeletor box
why? those were Sundown subs LOL
@@meade916 just saying how dope the box looked, I agree they were just sundown subs 😆
Looks like a top secret military project AMAZING 😃😃👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
I would love to see someone question this man on his wiring. This guy is the goat lol
Struggling to get a new woofer out of the box is the best feeling ever!
All that work is coming together nicely man. Looks really smart!
Love your taste in music dude🤟 much love from another metal head❤️
8^) tbh those are some of the sickest 12's i've seen on vid which i'm sure does 'em no justice compared to peepin' 'em out 1st hand. people if ya haven't been to his website to see the array of pics from many angles u gotta check out the stages. dopest looking build from the ground up right now is Steve's Esco show. props ma man, props 100
dude , that beautiful . if only there was a market for that caliber of work here
Man, this is art at this point. I need one of the b2 subs!
This build is coming together so nicely. Those subs made me smile, haha!
By far the best looking subs I’ve ever saw!
It was sick watching the progression of this build. Learned a tonne along the way as always. Stoked for my QR-1 purchase to arrive.
Oooooo yes here we go!
Never thought I'd use this word in car audio but that is some elegant shit
IKR, straight up work of art what he's come up with so far and knowing him the box is going to be nuts too.
@@jody024 yup that's exactly what I was thinking with the box.
Just amazing, The amount of detail and forethought that goes into this is awesome. Love the rack, got me thinking about leds now. Thanks for a great video.
Yo I remember watching your videos back in 09 when I was in high school 😂 this is nuts good stuff bro 👌
Steve is always doing some next level S**t. I love his work and it inspires me to try 1000% harder with the stuff I do!
The six 12s are gonna be close as hell to the hatch
i know..might have to port up instead of back. The rack grew a little since i first started haha
Hands down the sickest amp rack ever 💪
Love the set up man
I’ve said it before and i’ll say it again. I love that Konnected flannel! But it’s not in stock! Looked a few months ago and it wasn't in stock either.

I’d subscribe twice if I could! My favorite channel! Best in the bizz
Awesome that the test was Pantera! \m/
Almost there man. Looking real nice. Glad to see the caddy getting its system. Awesome job
What would be a good sound booster for my truck. Don’t want an amp just something to boost my replaced speakers in my Nissan Frontier. Something easy to install
A better deck would make a major difference
Those subs are a work of art
Now I'm excited
That's so cool. Those subs are GORGEOUS! I'm excited to see that 40 mm of one-way xmax action!
Blue was my fav but now its white 🥶🥵😍

That build is gonna be fire.
Dammmmnnn, was that a box inside a box, inside a box, inside a box, inside a box?? LOL. Awesome work as always!
