    I have a jeep CJ5 and I am planning to build a very compact box to go under the back seat. It will only be 5X17X23, I'm going to try two three inch subs. I use your channel to learn about box construction. I have been building things for 30 years and you have totally changed how I use my router. I went from one router I used rarely, to having three dedicated to table mount, jig use and free hand. Thanks Mark! keep building!

Ill keep you posted this is my first box! Following your videos has helped me immensely! Mahalo from the 808!!!

  • @rhkips
    @rhkips 5 лет назад +5

    That is a beautiful box! Sometimes you just need good sound; it doesn't always have to be neighborhood-shattering insanity!
    Heck, my media/home theater setup uses four 5.25" drivers for the lows. I live in a cozy little studio apartment, so I needed to play deep and fill the room at low volume, so the neighbors couldn't hear it. It's all about the application!

    I did car audio installs in the late 80’s early 90’s. I with i had your channel back then you do awesome work. I was able to build several cars that made it IASCA Nationals back in the day but with what is available now a days we would not stand a chance against the likes of you. I have to say my six 15” Kicker subs in a toyota Tercel was pretty loud. 😁 I had 3 Phoenix gold Route 66 amps along with an M100 and M44 (Look that up on google) they are considered “vintage” now and even then the were a very limited edition. I own 3 of 4 solid in the southern US. For mids and highs I ran all Image Dynamics including the under dash horns that sounded amazing. (Look thst up too..haha) Any thanks great channel

    Man that's a great looking box. Wonder if CAF would be willing to start making videos with recommendations on subs and enclosures to maximize space available in a wide variety of vehicles? That would be useful to truck owners like me who are fishing around trying to get the right sound but have a hard time finding the right equipment for the space available. If CAF ever picked up on that idea I'd be watching those vids for sure. We all go through different vehicles in our lives so it would be helpful sooner and later to have a library of various vehicles and system setups.

  • @thenewhalogod
    @thenewhalogod 5 лет назад

    I use that adhesive at work extensivly. The charcoal filter that you showed have a useable life of around 3 days outside of the package. You should put new filters on every time you use that adhesive. Also, if you have a batch that gets a bit clumpy you can kick it back with MEK.

    Hey Mark, long time subscriber after I discovered your Jeep Wrangler build (at the time, I just bought my own Jeep and learned from you how to build my own car audio). I was hoping to buy the new Jeep Gladiator now that it's finally out and was thinking on re-building it's sound system too from the ground up (keeping the 9" touch screen navigation system though). Would you ever consider doing a video showing your version and how you would customize everything?

    So im putting a sound system in my 2013 Hyundai Elantra GLS is stages as of right now I have swapped out my stock deck for a Pioneer AVH-4201 NEX deck thats paired with my steering controls I've also swapped out my stock speakers and tweaters with with Rockford Fosgates T1650-S Power speakers in my driver and passenger doors and in the doors in the back seat a matching set with tweater overlays all running through 1 ohm cable powered by a Rockford Fosgates P400x4
    Punch Amp and it sounds very good but I'm stumped on what Sub to go with I've been on the fence between 2x12" subs or 1x15" sub and I'm looking to keep my brands matching front to back only thing I've come to learn is that 2x12" will bring more presence and a 1x15" will bring a deeper tone and for a guy that listens to everything but plays hiphop 75% of the time I don't want to be let down by a $5000cdn sound system and tips I do know for a fact I have enough air space to run both I actually have enough airspace to run 2x15" but I still want my trunk any knowledge or advice would be amazing note: my car audio guy has got me convinced that I should run my subs through a mono amp which I plan to do and I've already put a huge lithium battery in my car and it's actually putting out 100volts or watts more than its rated for so I've got lots of power for it
