Another Kickass Audio Build

And updates?

 

I'm right in the middle of fishing season! Plan to glass the pods in June though... Sounds pretty good already , so that's not motivating me to get it done .. Lol

 

Could you possibly post a picture of the stock tweeter grills from the bottom side?

sorry for delay.. I won't get into it for about another week or so, but I can post up a pic..

 

here u go. passenger side

 

I actually had a little time today, so spent 3 hours and made the passenger side pod.. Went well..

At this point, its sand, sand, and more sand!

 

Those are coming along nicely. Can't wait to see the finished look!

 

How's this progressing?

 

I think he's fishing

 

Definitely fishing lol

 

I have some equipment on its way and doing some research here. So, at 23V and a 4ohm speaker, are you saying the stock HU is producing 123W of power per channel? Something seems off here. I'm a car radio rookie so I may be way off...

 

Ha ha! So True!

I got tired of staring at my unfinished pod, so I build it this weekend..

 

This project is over the hump.. However, I have wait til it cools down.. MY shop is about 95 to 100F in July /August! No fun to work.

Items to finish:

1) PODs ; trim, sand, paint, done..
2) Tuck in wires
3) Tune ; I plan to post pics..

System already rocks! I will say that I'm very happy with the PODs, great sound stage.

A TIP for future builders, I highly recommend putting alot of watt power in the doors for mid bass; the PODs do the rest.. The sundown woofer is fabulous..

Talk to you guys in the fall..

 

Reminds me of how much I don't miss this process. I love having a 3d printer for this kind of stuff.

 

Yeah pretty cool.. But can't imagine getting the exact speaker alignment one desires..

Maybe u can tell us how it's done.

 

if you are shooting for optimal sound in the drivers seat you could just make sure the angles/axis match from your ears. they would't look symmetrical but would be the best for response and easier time alignment

 

What I meant was, how do you program the 3D printer to produce a POD with the angle that you want? I don't understand the reference coordinate.. Also, get the curvature correct on the dash..

 

With your 3D laser scanner of course.
