Buck's Explorer Audio pics

[BobWiersema]

Are you by chance blind or something cause those pics are extremelly huge..

He will end up deaf with that stereo.


Seriously, 2.2K x 1.7K pictures, who has a display that goes that high? Do you use a 72in TV for your computer display?

If you set your browser zoom to 50%, the pictures are managable.

Do I like the install? Personally, no. You've taken a utility vehicle and have turned it into a poor handling, bad gas mileage getting, 2 seater vehicle. And having to endure the constant physical abuse from listening to that stereo would get old quickly.

Maybe I'm just old...... I'm all of 33.

LOL

That and the poor workmanship on most of the instalation and cabinet building.

If you wanted to use that vehicle to advertise your business, then you should wait until you do it right

I still get 18 mpg, I drive slow. Audio is what I do, so too each his own.

What business? And poor workmanship? I fail to see where that statement is coming from...

Haters are gonna hate man. Some people use their X to haul and whatnot, others use them for ridiculous ammounts of audio , to each his own.
Im crazy about car audio, and wish I could do something like that, but I use up alot of the little bit of room I still have :

I give you props for all that work, that takes alot of patience, and time. Im doing half that right now, probably 2 runs of 0 and 1-2 extra batteries and im only making minimal progress a WEEK lol.

I gotta ask, HOW THE HELL MUCH did you pay for all that 0 gauge? I had a 25' spool and that was 80$ alone...

 

[BrianDye]

I do suggest though, upload those pics to Photobucket, and on the uploader, set the size to "Large" or "Medium," alot more people would probably take the time to look at this.

Yep, haters gonna hate. I'm sponsored, so I get stuff on the cheapz. I had a 100 foot spool, you'd probably hit me if you knew what I paid.

The images come from photobucket, but all my other forums have an automatic downsizer.

Not here unless you host them on the site (I think?)

Gonna shoot you a PM here in a sec.

Fits on mine perfect lol, though I am running a 24" LED TV with the resolution at 1080P so that may help

 

[jtbuck92]

Right now, I'm prolly around 145 db at 32 hz.

I broke part of my sunroof. It's the wind flap on the front.

in all honesty i stopped buying audio branded wire along time ago, not worth the money when you can go buy 0 gauge welder cable for atleast half the price and in most cases it has twice the amount of strands of copper in it as the branded crap

thats not bad, but its not that great either for what you have

The amps are down. I'm not close to where I could be. And this is more of a musical setup than a spl. The box is tuned between 27 and 28 hz, so numbers weren't my priority. I'm actually thinking about switching to one 18 for now, and sell the 2 I have because I want more SQ.

Yikes.....

Right now, I'm prolly around 145 db at 32 hz.

So your 5db above permanent hearing damage, 35db below tissue death (deafness) and 49db shy of the Loudest Sound Possible.

Think I'm kidding, take a look at this chart I found at http://www.gcaudio.com
Check out the other charts they have compiled http://www.gcaudio.com/resources/howtos/loudness.html

Kudos to you for all the hard work that you have done.. But eletrical tape is a no no in the car audio biz. A trick I use is on 0 -4 guage is on the end melt some solder on the end as it will make a better connection and look better as it will not show the frayed ends. I would pressure wash the engine compartment before I start any job as all the dirt will get all over you and loook like crap when you complete the job. Use heat shrink that you melt with a mini torch on all connections it will make you look like a pro. Good luck and keep up the hard work!
