This car will be loud. The wire is in.

Since there was actually some interest in this tread I decided to start it up again. Let's keep it clean.
For those who asked there are 16 runs of 0 guage going from the front fender to point just behind the sub box. 8 wires are for power and 8 are for ground. The battery will be an NSB 90. The amps used will be 4 Soundstream XXX6500's and the subs will be 2 XXX 15's. Should be ready in 2 weeks.

can i sit in it when u burp it? :P

NTOXKTD 06-21-2007 10:36 PM

I guess I will have to prove I can do over 150db first. If it is at a show near you then yuo can sit in it when I burp it.

Aren't you a little worried about the cable passing through the sheetmetal with no grommet...or is it just not in the pics? Looks to be a killer setup...definetly won't have voltage drop through that much copper :D

willcann 06-21-2007 10:43 PM

rich that thing need more wire lol and i thought it was going to have 18's

I will pull the wire back out this weekend and I will trim the opening to protect the wire.

18's will be built and tried at some point.

.ben 06-21-2007 11:04 PM

that is a lot of wire....that thing is gonna push 150 no prob....

NTOXKTD 06-21-2007 11:09 PM

I will bring it up to the Bay for the August 26th show at Shark.

1LoudScort00 06-21-2007 11:49 PM

Can't wait to see it done man, lookin' good!

JohnVroom 06-22-2007 05:53 AM

hehehe black positive wire and black negative wire without a polarity key color... nothing bad can happen. Terminate everything safely

ChrisB 06-22-2007 05:59 AM

Good stuff

Good luck with those 6500's, from what i've heard they are hard to get to work in Street/Street Max due to efficiency

VANPASS 06-22-2007 07:16 AM

What class are you doing.

The positives are already terminated with red ring terminals. Everything is under control.

I am told the 6500's work great on a 12 volt sytems. The XXX 10000 on the other hand needs 16 volts + to produce some real power.

Killer_klown187 06-22-2007 08:17 AM

that is some crazy setup man!!! After you do a break in, im sure you wouldn't have much of a problem with a 150hit,

FrankB 06-22-2007 08:21 AM

what do you think of that nick???
can he do it :bs:

Richard's coming after me :D

VANPASS 06-22-2007 09:17 AM

Or me???.

FusionMadsen 06-22-2007 09:21 AM

Why XXX's and not MT's?

Mr.American Bass 06-22-2007 09:23 AM

With his own knowledge no he cant. With help from other yes it should do over 150. My car does 153 with 1000wrms but that is my car.

bodar 06-22-2007 09:59 AM

looks good so farwhat size of cable is that? 2/0? looks huge

boombox 06-22-2007 10:22 AM

so are you planning to run that thing in a wall because if your not i dont see it being loud at all but a 150 you can probably do it with your eyes closed

Lucifer_Ghost 06-22-2007 10:44 AM

Brings new meaning to the slang phrase "Im gonna go lay some cable" :P

Can we just get a ban on this guy so he can't screw up another thread up with his childish drivel? I'm interested in what Richard is doing without all of this childish "I'm better than him B.S."

Richard, I think I counted about 20 runs of wire - I'm guessing 10 positive, 10 negative. What exactly are your plans? How many amps? How many subs? Will the subs be DVC or Quads? And what impedance on the coils?

Can you answer any of that, or are you keeping everything somewhat of a secret?

Nick... please... stop this. I don't want to have to start handing out warnings and temp bans. I think it's great having you here and you provide a lot to the community but your beef with Richard has got to settle down.

Thank You for the interest.

Check out the first post for all the info.

ChrisB 06-22-2007 01:45 PM

Richard - what are you doing about buss bars?? copper? alum?

maltesechicken 06-22-2007 01:47 PM

Oops! Sorry.
I saw you repost the pics, but I didn't even notice the equipment list.
Thanks

JohnVroom 06-22-2007 04:26 PM

Yes just the one.

Mr.American Bass 06-22-2007 06:50 PM

Listen chicken you dont know me or anything im about so please dont talk about me I was simply asked a question and I replied. That why there is mods and if i step out of line they will deal with it thats why they are mods and you are nobody. P.s there is only 1 true chicken in caraudio and that is Tom Adams AKA the spl Chicken.
Sorry if i have offended anyone with my posts its always good to trash talk a little and get people motivated on this forum.

Prolifik 06-22-2007 07:40 PM

but u never trash talk me, i feel left out and unmotivated.....u know what, im just not gonna come to your show :stroke:

Mr.American Bass 06-23-2007 08:56 AM

Why would i bash you your a legend. P.S you better show up for my show.

ryannow 06-24-2007 01:23 PM

so what would the benefits of running negative wire be? I've never seen this done before.
