Does anyone want this subwoofer? This was the subwoofer from our old Bonneville. We kept it when the Bonneville was decommissioned. The right one is blown out, but it doesn't make too much of a difference; just makes the bass dirtier. I feel like this thing has some life left in it, and that it would be a shame to just throw it away.

We start by removing the side panel of the Pilot. This allows us to work on the factory enclosure are and add some sound control product.

In order to accommodate the deeper subwoofer, we fabricated a spacer ring. You can also see the sound control product we placed inside and outside the enclosure area.
Here you can see the mounting ring for the subwoofer to space it out to the factory panel. We will make a plate to match up the the ring, which the subwoofer will mount to, and give us a finishing plate to integrate the new woofer into the vehicle cosmetically.
the preamp (left) and its little brother, the subwoofer controller. new to the line-up (or should I say line-out) ;)
what's new, here, is that I built another relay attenuator but this time I picked 0.1dB spacing for the step size. using all 8 relays (bits) that would get me 0.255 as a count or 0 thru 25.5 dB attenuation. the subwoofer already has a level control on it (powered sub) and so you 'get it close' with the sub-mounted control and do the fine tuning with this lcd/IR unit. with .1dB steps, that's a very fine level of granularity.
to see the R values I picked, visit my online CGI calculator:
www.amb.org/audio/delta1/r2r.cgi
use 8 bits, .1db and 5000 as the Z value and you'll see the R's that are installed on my board.
Here's a sub I build mostly for fun. I just thought ... hey .... 2 18 inch woofers... Those would be a lot of fun... And they ARE! LOTS OF FUN!! Sounds incredible! Unfortunately; my appartment is not that big, so I'm selling it to a friend that has a cafè ... and needs some bass to keep his front speakers from overloading.
It's two Dynabel PA1818 in a push'n'pull configuration with a Hypex DS 4.0 subwoofer amp giving a whooping 400W RMS @ 4 ohm. The woofers are two 8ohm in paralell (=4ohm).

2005 GMC Sierra Pickup Custom Fiberglass Subwoofer Box install - Wiring for cap, PS2 and led's, DONE!
The smaller of Meridian's active subwoofers, the SW1600 features a 300mm long-throw custom driver for superb power handling, with the amplifier and power supply to match. With both analogue and digital inputs it is ideal for systems of either type.
The SW1600 features a sealed cabinet, for maximum flexibility in positioning, whether free-standing or as part of a built-in installation. It is ideal as a mono subwoofer for a Meridian Digital Theatre system, in particular to give exciting cinema effects and added realism to movies. The SW1600 is optimised for both music and movie soundtrack applications and integrates seamlessly into a system.
The recommended configuration for music is to use two subwoofers, one for each of the main left and right channels, for a superb stereo image. In a large system, multiple subwoofers can be employed to provide even more impressive effects.
This was somewhere around April 2001 or 2002, with my old band, ToeFinger5. We had been asked to play for a "benefit show" down here in Sacramento (Note, at this time I still lived in Redding, CA) to protest the Knauff fiberglass plant in Shasta Lake City, CA and it's ecological effects.
The organizer of this event was the infamous "Cat-Woman" of Northern California, a.k.a. Celeste. She was the one who had scaled the immensely tall smokestack of the factory and hung out (almost literally lol!) for hours before police managed to talk her down (no, not suicidal, trying to make a point), all while wearing a Catwoman-type outfit--ears, nose, tail, and all. I know, sounds a little crazy, but hell, she got the publicity she was looking for (including several arrests it seems lol!), but to my knowledge, the factory is still operational.
Anyways, Celeste had "hired" us as entertainment, along with a rapper from Sacramento (who actually owned a shop in downtown, if I remember correctly), named D-Cell. His topic of rhyme? The environment. Anyways, that's his GK rig behind me, one sweet subwoofer if I've ever seen one, and I even got to use it... Until things got a little... erm... crazy...
As I said, we were hired for this gig, and the understanding between myself and Celeste was that it was going to be a HUGE event, with a TON of media coverage. Well, as a show planner myself (not any more really, but during my band days I did it all), I know how these things go...
There was pretty much no one there. D-Cell, us, and a random superhero guy, whos name I don't even remember (but somewhere I have a picture of him lying on a bench just out of frame to the right haha), so we were kinda' freakin' out... Drove down to Sacramento, pretty much poor, hoping for a great turnout, and we'd rock the place, get some great media attention for dirt cheap, and get to say "Yeah, I've played at the California State Capital!"
That's not how things turned out... Our audience were random tourists coming to check out the capital, some of the local downtowners, bored people, and believe it or not, like, a fourth-grade class!! Apparently they were touring the building, and they wanted to watch us, so the teachers sat them all down and they sat there for like, at least 20 or 30 minutes haha... Not the expected crowd, but hey, we got to play for kids who thoroughly enjoyed us, gave them and their teachers an unexpected extra for their field trip, etc etc, and they weren't FORCED to listen to us (unlike some stupid school assemblies we did with various schools haha). Anyways... that's not even the most interesting part of the day...
Shortly thereafter, the California Highway Patrol officers who guard the building came over and basically said "Look guys, we don't have a problem with you guys out here, but the State Legislature upstairs says you're disrupting them... Turn it down please?" So we did... a little... They came over again, and asked us again... So we did, a little... Well, then D-Cell cut my feed to the subwoofer. I never noticed.
Note to the gear cynics out there: A Crate BX100 is PLENTY FREAKIN' LOUD ENOUGH, so don't go snobbing those of us who don't carry around a freakin' 8x10... Ask the California State Legislature if you don't believe me.
So. By this time, the legislature has complained to us a second time, and we're just finishing our set... We've effectively been the most enthralling of the entertainment there, thoroughly rocked everyone's asses in that part of Downtown Sacramento, and somehow managed to avoid being thrown off the premises and not get shot/arrested by the CHP from disrupting a session of California State Legislature TWICE.
A freakin' awesome show indeed!
Advice: Don't get Best Buy to install a subwoofer + alarm system in your car.
For me, the battery backup of the alarm system killed my entire car, resulting in ONLY the alarm working. (The alarm off button had no power.) Thanks Best Buy. Also, my subwoofers blew up, and had to be replaced, and the replacement -- one of those blew up. Also, although I can't prove it -- I think the amp they put in my car was not the one they sold me.
And then there's the fact that the subwoofers are made of some material that loves to grow mold when it gets wet. And my trunk gets wet. This makes my entire car stink, all the time (ergo the baking soda, though I'm really hoping to get arrested and have the police embarass themselves by testing it for cocaine). Still worth it to hvae good bass, but FUCK YOU BEST BUY, you suck. And not just for the reasons outlined here -- they violated a service contract with me and refused to replace my $400 cd player after 4 repairs. Each repair, they told me the 4th time I'd get a replacement. What do you think they told me the 4th time I brought it in? That the other 3 times weren't repairs, they were fucking cleanings. FUCK YOU BEST BUY, I'LL KILL YOU.

The Front Left Velodyne DD-12 Subwoofer and Front Left Model 9 Speaker looking For Their Final Resting Places.
Edit: It appears that while the Magnaplaner speakers that used to occupy these corners reacted well here, these speakers being of an entirely different design, do not react with the room in the same manner. Some acoustic room treatments are now required here in the form of bass traps to help smooth out the room response a bit more then what the built in electronic room correction in the sub-woofers can afford. Change never seems to have an end, yet it still sounds AWESOME! The best I have ever experienced in my own home.
In a few months, an HDMI upgrade should become available for my CBIII Music and Cinema controller, which will then allow it to decode the new lossless hi-resolution audio formats found on blu-ray discs.The sound should be nothing short of astonishing.
EDIT: While it took quite a bit longer the a few more months, the long awaited CB-IIIHD Music And Cinema Controller has finally been released!
The Unit Pictured Above Was Chosen To Be "The Worlds First HDMI Edition Casablanca III-HD".
It Was Delivered On Jan. 6th, 2011 Along With The Theta Digital Compli-Blu Universal Transport And Blu-Ray Player.
