Four 8's = Violent BASS! BADASS Ported Under-Seat Truck Enclosure Wired Up - Disintegrates a CD!

visit: www.stevemeaded... - Join our fun, friendly and knowledgeable community today!
Bobby Gately (Gately Audio, Sacramento CA) dropped off another one of his amazing truck boxes for me to try out. I originally wanted to do the 8's but decided to try the 6.5's first (see previous vids). I am happy with everything so far! I might have to give away one or BOTH of my old 6 6.5 boxes to a LOYAL subscriber who also has a Ford F250 like mine. Also, i am planning on swapping out the B2 Audio Rage 2500 for the Falcon 5000.1 and also an 8 channel amp on the highs...and hopefully MORE highs!..stay tuned!

This is 1000% the goal for my truck. I’ve been obsessed with wanting to do 4 8s in my truck and now seeing this. Just even more motivation. Just gotta find the money to do it 😍

I was running 4 soundqubed hds2.108s on a ppi ice 7000.1 @ .5 ohms, 4 8s on 3k are nasty! Best part is the sq 8s are like $80 each so not gonna have to mortgage your house to get sum!

Im rocking 3 JL 8w3 for the last six years. It's funny the reactions I get from people when I turn up the music. First, they didn't realize I had a system of that magnitude as its hidden behind 3rd row downfield. Then they can't believe they are only 8s . Ive Had all sizes through my years , but the 8s take so little room and sound good with ALL music .

Sky High wire is enormous. The regular 1/0 OFC is really 3/0 Welding size. I went to my local Auto parts store, Economy Auto, took a piece of wire in there to size it for some copper lugs and the 3/0 Welding lugs ended up fitting perfect.

[@DouglasThompson]

Seems like the 2nd and 4th position subs have a lot of surround deformation compared to 1 and 3 from the slow motion footage.

[@wtcamer]

Probably the 2 used subs that have broken in surrounds. He was xmax'n them hard.

[@DouglasThompson]

@@wtcamer agreed. I figured something along those lines.

[@DTW-bx2vy]

It is the internal wiring causing more power to be sent to two of the four subwoofers because of the series parallel wiring.

[@TheDudeRc]

Was just picking my truck up at my buddies audio shop last week and he had one of those boxes on the ground. Its a seriously impressive box. The quality is amazing and the corners (or lack of) is really nice. Yeah its expensive but its a quality piece.

Great video. I’ve always preffered the sound of 8” subs over 10s or 12s. I started running four 8 free airs back in the 90s and had to explain the whole series/parallel wiring thing many times. Thanks for showing 8s are still good option.
