A1 Audio Designs really hit the mark! + Limited Edition Subs

Been slack in the updates recently but here is how we stand at the moment - Last friday night I went to see Paul at A1 Audio Design to pick up Project Big Black from him after he spent 10 days working on the door builds and rear door amp rack - all I can say is WOW

We spoke at length about what I was after and he got the idea perfectly - here is the finished article

Saturday morning we took everything apart for storage so as not to damage any of the panels Paul has produced - the plan for t he day was to get the front face of the box in - that didnt goto plan but will let you know why later ;) - As you can see pauls work is fantastic -The car will be going back to Paul before modded nationals to  have the rear amp rack and front face trimmed up as well as having the front seats retrimmed

First off was a trip to Travis Perkins to get some 25mm MDF - the plan for the front and rear of the box is to use 2 panels of 25mm mdf to make the baffle port and rear of the box

Loaded with 25mm MDF

Before we started I wanted to get a rough idea of port opening so i knew what size to cut the front face to so a lil BassBox Pro action in the back

Trimming the front face

Measuring out the cut out-

Decent spacing between the subs and a cut out designed for the GZPW12LIMITED Subs

In the above board i was testing my cuts - routing isnt something I have much experience with but thanks to Ground Zeros 15th Birthday im glad I did.  Ground Zero are celebrating the 15th birthday with 555 limited edition Plutonium subs called the GZPW12Limited

They are rated at 3000wrms, have a stiched surround (the surround is stitched to the cone as well as glued making for a stronger join - it also rocks a 4" voice coil - all the better for eating power with.

So im now going to be using 8 of these babies instead of the GZNW12 - and im glad i held off on the cutting as the GZPW12LIMITED and the GZNW12 have differnt baskets and so the cut outs in the front face of the box need to be remeasured.

This weekend im off to see adam dumdum daniels and John Daddy- O Aitkin to have the alts fitted and to make a start on cable running as well as finishing the front face of the box

Updates soon!
