Thanks madwi. Hopefully it works out for mine too. I'll find out this weekend.

Didn't mean to highjack your thread BoneZ. Looking forward to your next photos.

I'm wiring like a fool as we speak.

We have sound!

Now the months of tweaking can commence, but that's the relaxing part.

The amp has its home. I even found a convenient spot for the bass level knob, which I don't really want anyway.

I used a hole saw to cut a couple holes in the foam to pass the wires though. I glued in some copper pipes to trim it out, make it look better than just holes.

I'm happy with the sound. Still a bunch of tweaking to do, but I'm calling it a success. That sub is droppin' LOW!

My chief audio engineer evaluated the system and gave me his approval.

It takes a while for sure.

using test tones to set all frequencies equal before even touching the amp takes a while by itself.

Spent lunch and my breaks switching crossover points and playing with levels. I got it dialed in close-ish.

Relaxing for the most part.....I can't even count the hours and hours spent sitting in cars in the garage tweaking. In the 4 years I've had the Z, considering speaker changes, amp changes, ect... I would say 100 hrs tweaking would not be exxagerating...then there's the countless hours just chilling out listening to it....
Man, I love this S$#t.....lol

After consideration, I am going to make my final cover and stainless steel grill this weekend.

BoneZ · 10-08-2015, 06:50 PM

I started making my grill and cover board.
