BASS WARS 9 💥😱 - BVV#72

[@Evilthx]

I am 46. The first time this van hits a bass note will be a great retirement surprise for me at 65 years old. By the way... that Loctite is gonna twist.

[@justintaylor412]

That’s pretty good

[@davidl7459]

Wrong....it’ll swell

[@richhancock3110]

Same here I retire at 65 so another 22years he may get this van some subwoofers

[@loudelvis610]

Spoiler alert when van is done in 20 years Soundman colab with Whistlindiesel and van gets destroyed in 10 minutes

[@majorpayne5693]

He can complete it by age 65 thats the early completion estiamte.

[@steelresilience]

Just on time. I graduated today. Your builds gave me comedic relief through my last years of college. Thanks man. Keep it up!

[@airscoutborne]

Go forth and live in debt, godspeed

[@wal]

Thanks again for joining me and HiFiVega on 12V Talk! We need pops next time to talk about how the OG Soundman started out, befo you had your big wheel in the showroom 😝. Those 80’s pics were CLASSIC!!

[@jrossman4703]

I really enjoyed that episode 👍

[@scottiffanimccord1509]

It was the best show yet! All the pictures and history it was epic!

[@NathanOakley1980]

Great show, I really enjoyed it. Your 100,000 play button does mean something.

[@oscargonsales1336]

Loved the show. Doug seemed he was sedated on how calm he was lol. Loved it

[@Adamas_83]

Awesome episode, definitely showcased the family passion for car stereo and let us see the slightly more serious side of Doug and his business. I don't care if the bass van takes 500 episodes, I'll be there for every single one! You have to appreciate someone who creates what they want and throws the algorithm out the window to stay true to themselves - Doug has certainly done that and I think we as his community respect the decision despite all the shit talk!

[@cup_and_cone]

Hoping I'm still alive for the Great Bass Van Build Showdown, coming Summer 2053.

[@big_mon1]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@thecman26]

Yeah its gonna rock till the subs blow! Better back that off to 2060.

[@soundman_caraudio]

WHAT UP DUDES?!?!?! Happy Friday Night!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌 I miss you guys!! I hope you guys enjoy this new BASS WARS UPDATE!! 🤣 🤣 🤣💥 Leave a comment, let me know how youve been!!!! 💥😎 Watch me on the 12V Talk PODCAST 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYfFfHWoqbZ5q80

[@TheBrokenLife]

Thumbnail game is hard tonight.

[@nikjohnson9944]

Loved the 12volt interview...good times down memory lane...you and the 12volt guys make for a good pairing of knowledge and amusement...keep it up.. . Also... Bass van looks good... Doug for the win in the bass van war...

[@360ModsandHacks]

It's slowly coming together. I see you finally got the first layer of wood in the van done, something that would've taken anyone else about a day to do lmao

[@dalegladdin9068]

We wanted a test bump from that box you rattled together in a hour.... didn’t even go near one kitchen

[@Ddogg2000]

Exo coming at you strong in his new video vans coming along still his door panels aren't done

[@dougtond1380]

Well, he has been a bit of a shitshow since the start of the build. He got a van that couldn't fit in his garage, he got slag in his eye, got over spray all over his new van, etc. Give the kid a break lol I'm really surprised all of that efoam didn't make the sides of his van all wavey 😬😬

[@Ddogg2000]

@@dougtond1380 no kidding lol

[@PHUSII]

Nice, a new upload to start the weekend! Thank you Doug, keep at it! This van will bring all kids to the yard!

[@davidbrowning3336]

Have to say that this picture is my favorite one out of all that you have put out up til now. Love the way your mind works Doug. You my friend are a F**KING LEGEND. All of your content is always on point. To the many more years to come of amazing videos and

[@shanecunningham6082]

For Your consideration. When spreading the PL adhesive. Take a tip from tile contractors, scrape it with a rake trowel after spreading the adhesive.... reason being without the rake pattern on the adhesive you're potentially traping air pockets/ bubbles. The rake pattern provides channels for air to escape and adhesive to move into. Also Mark from fab kitchen is way behind.... he doesn't even have a van! Love the channel.

[@DangRoss]

Ok, it was worth the 3 week wait just for that thumbnail 👌

[@360ModsandHacks]

I always thought the CA in "Soundman CA" meant California not Car Audio lol

[@shanecunningham6082]

Love the lighter and bong sound bites. I imagine each is is unique and not just using a sample over and over

[@AwestruckAudioHertz]

The comedy on this is gold. Few videos have actually made me laugh out loud. Your a legend.

[@denniswalker1640]

Sweet, seeing ya on 12v talk,enjoyed the show, like the t bird build!!

[@julesbruchez-outperformtra2020]

Seriously this is the only show I watch when it comes out and it never disappoints

[@orlandot3944]

I was worried for a second EXO was going to weld himself inside the cage of his van and never hear from him again..

[@vegaskidgsxr600]

Befor you can act dumb and get more glue in your hair 😂😂😂😂

[@R34Sumo]

Damn Doug, you gave that box the old Mac Daddy Stretch for sure.

[@sterling-Dubois]

I saw your interview on 12 all talk it was really good great pictures

[@epicdemic215]

Yooooo I’m laying here dying laughing cuz I saw XO videos of foaming the van and when soundman said it’s gonna break up and rattle I can visualize it and that’s what makes it extra funny lmfaoooooooo

[@billyfish6004]

100 bass vans were finished in the time it took you to hang 3 boards.

[@audioa7739]

Doesn’t matter what you... Fido give me a noise!

[@ghostunspeakable7866]

...Can I help you?

[@czechbixkut]

Hey Doug, if you start a screw or two before you put the board up, then you don't have to balance screws on your tip. ;)

[@jasonpillay5320]

Hahaha he don't have brains for that he's to busy coming up with jokes about Mark

[@islerenner]

That's hillarious! I just used that TS-A2000LD2 to replace a blown factory Fosgate woofer in a 11' Eclipse Spyder.

[@Hertzsogood219]

I was just watching one of Marks videos and I literally fell asleep. From now on whenever I have troubles sleeping, I know what to watch. lol

[@franzlewis7777]

I waited to drop my morning glory before I hit the play button..and gave it a thumbs up after .

[@nastychevys]

Holy shit. I havent watched in like a year and your still working on the bass van 😂😂 I'll check back in a couple years to see if it bangs.

[@jxke]

Build a helper with some 2x4’s to hold the boards up to the ceiling. Lag bolts with wing nuts and a channel in the middle of the 2x4 so you can adjust it to any angle or lenF. Make a cross for the feet for stability.

[@Muffin460]

STILL BEST SHOW ON YOU TUBE THANK YOU DOUG You make my day every time you post a new vid.

[@ricardogaribay1991]

Been waiting all week for this video to come out. It was a great podcast with big d wiz.

[@ignacio8597]

Just finished it and boom new bass van video

[@colbylaro9361]

"The foam is going to absorb decibels"...omg too funny!

[@aaronsherwood4835]

HELL YA WOKE UP AND LAUGHED MY A## OFF BEST THUMBNAIL YET. FUNNY STUFF

[@buitenb]

Thanks for the video Doug !

[@patrickp.1998]

Why not use the airflow from the port for cooling the amplifier ,just switch the side of the port 😂👍

[@Barney-hk3es]

Fuck yeah baby. Good thinking

[@jasonpillay5320]

That's a good idea

[@OriginalWis]

Dude your comedy you've got me dying to start my vlog for my first build my guy.

[@stangfan93]

I was pooping and thinking “Doug needs to put out a MFing video” and I check, you posted one 23 min ago

[@dattepo7534]

Just when I was thinking you lost your mojo lmao damn dougy you killed it

[@soundsnvisions]

I still get a kick when I see him NOT staggering the joints on those three layers. I remember being an IASCA install judge. Our mantra - Intent and execution. Soundman has great intentions but not-so-good execution.

[@zachhaidek5591]

What kind of prep work to do you do to plastic before applying bondo or fiberglass? Im trying to repair my gauge bezel and sanded it before hand, but the first round of fiberglass did not stick. So i peeled it off and applied some bondo with glass hair in it, hoping it sticks. But was curious whats your prep work you do for plastic.

[@christopherwebber1104]

This is the best build. The dedication and strength . You get my vote!

[@lassediscovers1813]

That thumbnail tho LOL... nearly shit myself laughing on the way to the toilet to watch this video

[@ttwatt3027]

Walmart has great box for that pioneer speaker plus the speaker is centered on the box.

[@dkskario2980]

Daaannggg 💯🔊 EXO already fixed his subs turdblowers drrr😂🤣😂

[@HUBBABUBBADOOPYDOOP]

Thanks for the update, Doug. I'll bet you've added at least 200 pounds in wood and glue to that van by now. Add the batteries, amps, speakers & wire- there goes another 350. I'd seriously look into stronger suspension, tougher tires. MPG is going to suck. Have you made any progress on the "under hood" section? Are you running only two alternators? One must be dedicated only for the engine; ECM's don't work very well with brown outs on every bass note. Do you plan on using caps? I'd like to see some updates on those parts of the build, too.

[@shawnburns8190]

Mid 90’s flea market boxes called, they want their carpet job back. Daaaamn

[@TomtheS_AI]

Doug, with all that lumber in the bass van, the wood will be worth more than the audio equipment.

[@dredgerygc]

Great as per always. Been watching for quite some time. I'm glad you have got more subs, you deserve them. I was big into car audio since 2000. But half a world a way. Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. One Q. Amp and 6inch components for fronts (Something from a sponsor of yours maybe? ) (wifes 2001 wrx - been rebuilt)

[@regular_goof]

LOL, total LOOOL @ Casey Noseflat :D Welcome back to the show Casey !

[@everythingbox]

Dang you emptied those 30 construction workers caulks like a pro. You always have a backup profession since you love caulk so much.

[@Adamas_83]

Hell yeah, SKEET TIME.

[@lunitikk]

I to wire all my subs perpendicular. It gives them more if a vertical sound, rather than horizontal.

[@shane87floyd]

Been watching this channel for a while, good to see someone with integrity through time . I can see the passion. Flex them quarter panels!!!

[@jackburton7959]

If you've ever nailgunned yourself in the garand thumb while building little turdlet boxes for pioqueer speakers, go ahead and hit that subscribe button.

[@gavinspeed9228]

Thank you for posting Doug. I haven’t been able to shit in weeks and my Dr was getting concerned.

[@skaterscott007gaming3]

I’ve been itching for a new episode. Thank you for the fix.

[@AUSTINPETITE]

Just watch the hour and 24 minute interview loved it man I wish you would do more of that kind of stuff I don’t think you realize your fans love to hear about old school stuff and you need to start putting more videos out this is ridiculous SHIT !!!!!!

[@krqkan]

If you didn't have that powered goop ejector, imagine the forearm you'd have today.

[@benbowden8177]

Maybe the next project should be a coach. Take the seats out and have an amp rack in the luggage department below. Have a walk way in the centre full with subs and kitted out. Haven’t seen someone do a coach yet?

[@migascustomsounds3054]

Could I tell me wat kind of glue u use? I havnt found a glue I like. I usually use the can high adhesive spray glue.

[@armleggos4092]

You’re only Channel i don’t skip the commercials,keep going Bass Mechanic

[@TurboJohn74]

"Nose FLAT" alt character... loved it!

[@justintaylor412]

Love your videos, I hope you find time to work on the van more and upload more often! The content is great and you’re hilarious in the strangest/best way!!

[@dhaigler90]

With all the wood in this van, the van is going to swell just like Rafas mom on taco Tuesday. 🚐🌮🌮

[@soberholic]

any idea on where the fuck rafa is?

[@theresalong6573]

plywood on layers rule, should have played pioneer box, that way you got a standard,still sweet

[@tonyphillips9963]

Hey, Doctor Robotnik wanna be, where’s my name? Is it up on that wall yet! 👀 Quality episode though, keep em coming!! 🔉🔉🔉

[@brockfijal9244]

How many videos Intel you get the dam VAN DONE!!!! Pay Mark to do it.

[@vinnybscoolstorybro2273]

Best thumbnail I've ever seen!

[@MrShiffles]

I'm a bit BOARD watching you install more boards lol

[@jlinders13]

Ok, thumbnail had my wife asking me "what's so funny?" Haha best one yet!

[@dredgerygc]

Also, 12v talk..... awesome.

[@jesscneal]

Thanks for the Friday chuckles Douglas. I've been watching a bunch of old Amplifieds lately with Jordan and Spoon and the others. Your facial hair has improved since then :D Have a great weekend 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👊👊

[@cafrogg2016]

The bass van is gonna be so top heavy that it'll roll over taking a tight turn, barrel roll 12 times, land in a lake, and (inevitably) swell.

[@Freejason33]

Doug, you're right that EXO's spray foam is trash. But the 2 component mix and pour foam is a whole a different animal. Even the lowest density is super rigid. The flexing of your boards and sheet metal individually is gonna eat a lot more dB's than if you bond them together with a rigid layer. And it's not too late. You just drill holes and pour. EXO was wrong for thinking he needed spray foam at the top of his walls before adding pour foam, because that shit expands. All he needed was a few air bleeds at the top.

[@michaeltbopino]

Man you kill me 😂😂😂the thumbnail the exo part hah

[@mike.hunt420]

Its probaly the snail race scene from spongebob, mark is patricks rock

[@reesechris76]

What model makita jigsaw are you using? I wanted to buy one for a build but i heard one of there models has a soft start and people say it sucks.

[@seacoastdetailing4081]

That 12volt podcast you did was so cool

[@RockFordCademce]

You need to put a woofer in that work bench hole. Win the bass wars for good!

[@shanecunningham6082]

Will you upgrade the vans suspension/ brakes?

[@mrtwistaxx]

At the rate lumber is going up... this is going to be a 1 million dollar build by the time its done.

[@regular_goof]

Man your thumbnails are dope as fuk 🤣 May the farce be with you

[@liveyourbestlife3785]

I guess since that little pioqueer won't bump anyway you don't have to worry about the amp getting damaged by box mounting it

[@TurboJohn74]

(best Billy Bob voice) "It slaps the caulk on it's van"

[@cliffp73]

Doug how many speakers have you put a hole in mounting it?

[@optionstrader9637]

As he was talking about noseflat i dropped my phone right on my nose 😂

[@KBC-69420]

When I woke up this Saturday morning and saw the notification for this video...I immediately knew, I was going to have a great poop today. And I did!

[@kamakazecrxsi85]

I feel like i keep watching the same episode for the past few months

[@CarAudioInc]

I wonder if he watches the fab kitchen while he remodels his kitchen.

[@fleuriejeanpierre]

All jokes aside doug, this bass van is going to be sick!!!

[@scottiffanimccord1509]

Hay bud I saw you on 12v talk and I definitely have a new respect for you. God bless.

[@NaturallyaspiratedJJM]

Think of the money Doug is going to make selling a complete Astro van template set!

[@patrickcardenas123]

That van is gonna be badass brotha. But how ridiculous is the prices on wood. Keep up the good work bro

[@ThePattonboy123]

Love the mule! That’s so bad ass also new sub! Love the content! ❤️

[@justloudcustoms]

U clearly have been in the 12 volt game long time .. Quick idea when working above your head ..make a T board u can kick in place to help hold above head . old man that taught me called it a neighbor.

[@smetanavichlamanov8103]

I'm fucking soooo dead 😄😄😭😭😂😂 from the thumbnail photo 📷 ✔ 👌💯... That's totally Fucking Swell KZbinouless. 🙃😄

[@adrock18t]

Just curious. Why didn’t you use Green glue acoustic sealant?
