Working HARD on Subwoofer Box & Testing CLEAR TUBE For Problems + LOUD BASS & Painting Sub Enclosure

[@EXOcontralto]

SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW 😊 Took a longgg time but the results are awesome 👌

[@RT_Motors]

cant wait to see when you get it to WORK

[@MrAnderson5157]

A little "give" helps a woofer out sometimes. You're gonna need some durable ones. That's the problem with building things correctly, it'll show you the weakest links. Ironically you're subs will be it. I suspect a lot of woofer abuse incoming lol.

[@WineHouse33]

This is really becoming one of the most thorough builds out there...

[@tyresedomingo6790]

Can't wait to see the finished product bro I'm super excited

[@tyresedomingo6790]

Been following the build from the start can't wait to see the finished product

[@kayjay4060]

I check for your videos every day. I got all sorts of happy when I saw you posted. The amount of patience you have to work on all of that, and not rush it along is admirable. Thanks for bringing us along on the journey. Can't wait to see you enjoy the end results. I can't wait to enjoy it myself.

[@michaelmaloney6112]

Bro same, the attention to detail and relatability to him makes his videos the best I’ve ever seen. Him and Steve meade should collaborate on a build one day that build would be legendary

[@brianmosher4053]

Hey EXO, I haven't had a chance to watch this video yet but there is something that I really want to say to you. Your Ion build along with all your other builds have kind of given me blueprints if you will to continue with my build that I am working on right now. And I really want to say thank you for everything that you have done because the way you go about explaining things and your sense of humor really resonates perfectly with me and obviously a lot of other people as well. So from me and I'm sure every other viewer of your channel thank you very much!

[@aramissauers3196]

Wow that truly is beautiful

[@kellypg]

Man, I love this build series. Your little side thing about the braces was a fantastic demonstration. And the amount of detail you go through to make everything perfect is insane. Plus the wholesome ass bday present and kitties! This episode has everything.

[@benaustinn]

Yet another professional video. Exo never fails to capture my attention. Diagnostics and prevention maintenance aren't a factor in your average car audio video. Love your videos. Can't wait until the behemoth is complete, no rush. I want the details to continue.*staying tuned in*

[@NitrousNation]

Fantastic work, my girlfriend and myself always look forward to watching, you're videos are always top shelf.

[@0xas]

So happy for you don't having anymore any doubts on your bracing tubes.

[@danielszemborski]

14:37 "...fooouurr hours...." I had an Angry Joe flashback there.

[@TellyKennyButters]

As a painter your attention to detail is CRAZY!! Awesome work EXO! Looks amazing.

[@TellyKennyButters]

So awesome you took in the cute cat he looks so cool 🤘

[@paulg.6120]

Always a good day when you post man. What a great build your working on. Hope all is well with you. Again, it's great to see your build progress 👏 until next time.. keep on feeling that BASS 🔊

[@M3duza__GG]

I think a Candy Apple Red will look so cool in this build

[@alanwhitehurst2576]

Just absolutely mind blowing 🤯✌🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@PiroguesCamp]

Man I appreciate how you tackle everything. It was nice to see how loose that filler was inside the pipe. I imagined the globulous construction adhesive consistency and it sealing off air pockets, and causing back pressure. I sure am glad it worked!

[@michaelparsons3188]

You have come a long way man! I started watching your videos maybe 16 or 17 years ago. Started with your minivan wagon you had. Your channel has grown with your knowledge, patience, and understanding of car audio. I have been by your side learning with you. And your positivity is amazing. You never let anyone's negativity or a mistake ruin your day.... your like the Bob Ross of car audio... here we have happy mistakes

[@nenezera16]

Desculpe por não escrever isso em inglês, o novo Gatinho veio pra trazer boas energias no projeto que esta ficando incrível! Cada dia estou mais ansioso pra ver como vai ficar esse monstro!

[@heyletsplaythis]

😳🤯 This is the most meticulous project I’ve ever seen. You’re doing an amazing job.

[@JamesOKeefe-US]

Looks amazing EXO! Not only do you have an awesome sub design but the time and effort in editing these videos is incredible. Love your work man!!

[@juhs]

You are such a good dude, this has been such a fantastic journey with you on this build.. I honestly never want it to end

[@bigbassbenjj2362]

You are the TRUTH !! In more ways than 1 The love and humanity shown towards Norfleet is what this world needs everywhere Bro !! 1LOVE--- KEEP ON BASSIN !!!

[@trunkbangking]

Made my day to see this video today!! Was cheesin the whole video!! 3 years ive been watching progress on this build and i get more excited to see it become what it is .cant wait to see it playing!!

[@johnebuckland]

Ohhhhh, that's a slippery looking paint job, looks the goods. Welcome Norfleet. I am super thankful you are giving him a nice home and a visit to the Vet. You deserve nothing but happiness. Love ya EXO

[@jartest9205]

I have been around your channel for a while now and it feels so good to see how you just push on and push hard. Nothing but a smile on my face. Watched till the very end and love the new cat, cats are awesome have around.

[@MastaT_150]

Awe thanks so much for taking Norfleet in and gettin him all fixed up. Sometimes the best Kitties are the ones that find you! 🤗

[@dylantackett891]

Exo honestly I love how you set your mind to do it and do it my hole build so far I question my self if I'm doing it right or clean and always change my mind on it.

[@Ichabod_Jericho]

These vids are just as good as the bulk building, it’s like putting the cherry on top by dialing in finer details & rethinking last optimizations. You’re very inspiring to watch, I don’t know where you get the energy to do this alongside all your house projects

[@lamalucian7733]

Coming home from a stressful day at work. Wife has dinner cooked and I'm sitting at my desk watching Exo's update on his van. Life is good

[@sean31294]

The attention to detail and determination is crazy. Love these videos

[@shavarthomas1110]

Bro I love how you take your time and go through everything little by little to have an awesome finish. Keep up the work. I just can’t wait to see the finished product

[@MetroidChild]

Best wood paint I've worked with professionally (in sweden) is Pinja Protect GM, with enough airflow you can more or less walk on it after 6 hours, would cut the dry time of each layer down to like a day with a more realistic small single fan placed in one of the subwoofer holes.

[@stoneytim3807]

Omg I found your channel again after 8 years I lost my old account and mane feels good to see you still doing what ya love! Hope you have a great day and stay blessed!

[@normancore9522]

Your the most positive car audio guy on KZbin , love your videos keep on keeping on !!!!!!

[@speakerpat]

Come to think of it: building such a big subwoofer involves a lot of everyday skills: carpentry, painting, woodwork in general. You're doing such an awesome job!

[@jlaroux2010]

Exo's attention to detail is incredible. The box will be built better than his van or any vehicle for that matter. I would even say it will be better built than most homes.

[@matk22]

Once again..... Attention to detail is second to none.... I think I'm getting as excited to see your system run as I am mine lol

[@michaellomax7991]

I may have left the front metal square braces black as well, this is an amazing build and the patience and attention to detail you have is top notch!!!

[@Teacher5000]

I am loving the time and care you are putting into this. And it shows just how well patience and dedication lead to great results. Phenomenal work brother

[@kendrick101]

Looking like a dream bro😊

[@KnuckleHedd.]

I HAD ONE OF THOSE WHEN I WAS A KID!!! I forgot about mine until you pulled that mickey out of the box. Thanks Sister EXO for the trip down memory lane!

[@DurtySailor]

that gray looks good EXO good to see the the build coming along. home you are having a blast working on it

[@Mart77]

0:53 - walled bass builds are basically massive sound enclosures, so this amplifies every tiny sound. Kind of same principle of how body of a guitar makes every string stroke sound much louder.

[@sheddhobbies374]

Can't wait to see it done. been following for a long time now and just can't believe how far u came it's crazy.

[@channel44444]

Great video! Love all the extra details and demonstrations you put in. It really makes your content stand out!! Fantastic!!!!

[@KeptDragon]

Man it's lookin good. Glad to hear the supports filled properly. As for the white don't go with a bright white go for something slightly darker and going for a matte paint will help with blowout as it won't reflect as much. Semi gloss and gloss are respectively more reflective. Could also do it accent wall style and color match a wall to the subs if the branding has a specific color scheme.

[@f1rstclass366]

This is an EXOllent Elevated Audio build. Much continued future success. Color option, what about a Ode Military Green?

[@fieldie]

Woohoo!!! It's a good day when you see EXO has posted, I've been eagerly awaiting this upload, I've missed ya man! Let all of us give you the will and strength to beat the tough times, just know the support is out there, love your videos bro!

[@DjSpinMaster]

I'm loving the updates on this build. Can't wait to see it when it's finished!

[@heatherriggs8528]

cant wait to see this build get completed me and my fiancé have been following it but i lost my self towards the end of the vid that's such a pretty catington glad u took the little fella in

[@captboomerhosen9030]

Awesome, man! Glad to see that my theory about the air getting trapped inside was completely wrong! Absolutely love the videos and the build is looking freaking awesome as usual! Love it, man!

[@MaxFiveGames]

I'm happy you didn't go for white. It messes with the camera to much I agree. Gray looks super clean as well :) Another banger of a video man. Great job with the structure of the video and the editing once again 10/10 And as a animal lover my self, so happy you helped Norfleet out and kept him around 😊

[@Pat-Man81]

The amount of detail is crazy appericate all that you putting out for us to all see and enjoy

[@justincloncs1116]

Helping the little critters that need help. Love it man keep up all the hard work

[@jr.3650]

Exo, all i have to say is this project is a master piece!!!!

[@chromengoldsupra]

How could you not like this guy? Animal lover, bass head, hard working dude! The smoke gray looks great.

[@Jason_Voorhees.]

The patience you have is astounding

[@Djayrichierich2]

So here's a thought for the white vs camera issue. I have a home theater setup where I use my wall for my screen and after spending a lot of time trying to figure out what to do about the glare and washout I finally found a remedy. I used my regular neutral gray but after I did a 50/50 coat of satin clear and paint to give the finish a translucent later for the ambient light to get trapped in. It does work on all colors and is super effective. Good luck and keep up the amazing job on this build.

[@GOMUGOMUNO21]

Exo, I hope to open my KZbin at 80 years old and see you still posting these types of videos. Great job, as always!!

[@xlfisher]

Got a real Deathstar feel from the grey and black. Looking awesome, keep up the great work brother.

[@stevebowen5458]

I admire the time you are taking on detail. Keep it up can't wait to see it done!!!

[@tsar-bomba2413]

So cool that you picked gray, cuz that's what I thought when you were making the decision. Gray is perfect

[@richb4gone524]

I CANT wait to see the full build. It’s looking awesome!

[@wadespirko]

The work you put into this videos is amazing! You always make me smile! Great job!

[@adamgilchrist3698]

I’m addicted to this channel huge fan!

[@Hurricane314]

EXO!! You are my main inspiration for car audio and RC cars. I have a Kicker CompC and an Arrma Granite soon to get an ECX Brutus. Im still 14 so i dont even have a car yet. Ive been watching you for like 5 years! YOU ARE AWESOME!!

[@FOH3663]

So fun following along on this build/life experience. You're inspiring.

[@piptyson5512]

The sister-exo present was awesome lol. Keep grinding man, you're one of a kind!!

[@richardvargas9224]

Wow, EXO that looks AWESOME!!glad you're feeling better and happy belated birthday

[@robertdudek1464]

Your killing it man!!.. the attention to details is outstanding.. I'll admit when you first released that you was doing this build I thought.. oh great another walled off build in a "van".. but it's unlike any other build I've ever seen.. when it's finished it deserves a spot in a museum somewhere for real.. and the bass it's gunna permeate from every pour is gunna be orgasmic to say the least.. you've squashed any annoying resonance and truly built a behemoth db monster!.. can't wait to see the hair tricks now it's gunna be amazing.. thank you for sharing this with us all.. keep on bassin.. no body understands stereo therapy like a bass head lol

[@Michael_Mari]

Hi from your Russian subscriber! The atmosphere of your videos is insanely cozy

[@James-of-all]

Wow that is looking so amazing exo! I'm loving the build so far, excited to see the rest!

[@veeb6970]

Can’t wait to see this thing in action. Work of art mate, you should be proud.

[@RyanBassForLife]

EXO love it!! Your system looks good. Hay Bruce how's your gorgeous sister doing?? Dose she have a system in her ride?? Well if not you need to build her a box and hook a system up in her car. You have to give her the first demo of your new behemoth build on camera 💯 That would be beyond amazing to watch🤩👍

[@kennydidntdie6370]

Looks great only thing I think I would of done differently was paint the tubing in the front of the box black because I feel like it would of matched better instead of having the texture differences in the gray

[@MrDopey32]

I love the colors, looks great!! Awesome new little buddy as well!! That was awesome of your sister to get you a replacement Mickey, that really hit the feels!! Happy belated long over due Birthday!!

[@alexsaavedra6948]

Sweat I always be looking forward for your videos even if it is once a month or even a catch up video, you’re always even indirectly be teaching at least me new things to do for my build….. keep it up brody!

[@1fastcamaro1994]

BRO!... THIS IS AMAZING! keep it up!... I can't wait to see what the white baskets look like when you drop them in!....

[@bassheadforeverclub2118]

Hell yeah I'm so happy your my favorite bass KZbinr been watching since I was 16 thanks for making my day

[@HoUsEoFcAtS78]

Lookin fantastic, Bruce! Really excited to see this thing bangin!

[@Pittsburgh-412]

Wow what an amazing video man. I loved everything about it. Your doing so much more than most would do. I can't wait to see this build when it's done 🙌

[@justkiddin1980]

Hey EXO going great!!! I really think white is the way to go…Because if you add LEDS on specific places you can make the box any color you want…I think white and leds are the way to go….Because who cares how it looks on camera as long as it looks good in real life…And with the RGB LEDS these days you can make any color or “disco effect” you want.. And for the background blowing up in close ups is because the led lighting being in front of the camera instead of the back…If you want to film front to back you need lighting on the side where the seats are on the inside of the box..

[@IchabodCraneMD]

Check in on this series everyday - long time viewer. Love everything bass and stoked to see the finished product. I agree, white isn't the path. I like a black car with a huge 80's vibe in colorways inside. Pinks, purples, teals with splashes of a little white. Anything you go with will be sick but that's my vote.

[@grady.stu.8300]

Pretty impressive all the work you've done on that build. Plus filming it all must've been a challenge. Nice work man. That build is crazy strong. Can't wait till it's done!!

[@BradParler]

9:21 Yes, with autoexposure or phone a pure white surface is hard to expose for so you'll get that blown out look - a medium gray would be as clean and not have issue.

[@BradParler]

Love the color he went with!! Will make those white subs pop!!

[@Daband1t]

Happy Belated Birthday Brother from across the pond in South Wales UK , loving the build vids , cant wait for the finished look.......

[@HillbillyRefrigeration]

Man it’s looking so crisp and clean ! Hats off bro!!

[@Yoooshtive]

Your literally 1 one of my favorite you tubers! Definitely the coolest bass head ❤

[@SKSVIDZ]

cant wait for that wiring day EXO, as for the colour its your build you do whats best! keep it up man From New Zealand

[@JavierDuque]

Gotta love this dude attention to details

[@ruikazane5123]

For the overbright problem on white objects or backgrounds, it will be on your camera - if you can see it well with your own eyes. Try setting up exposure settings, and if possible, set a minimum, (so it cannot be too dark) a maximum (so it cannot be too bright) or both. Another option is to use manual controls, but depending on the camera it might be iffy. Trial and error! But if you are using a phone, good luck trying those out...

[@spaminacan4u]

Metering is where he will fix most of the problem. Changing from a matrix, center or spot will yield massive changes. Most modern phones have "pro" modes which will open all the settings up.

[@minio585]

In general camera work would fix the issue. I think you can get filter for a proper camera lense that fixes this with blown out white.

[@WineHouse33]

He went with gray, so it’s likely irrelevant.

[@italianstln43]

looking very nice exo you are deffinitly an artist cant wait tell the next installment of the build

[@johnofsometrades405]

I found a tiny kitten at my work, extremely sick, so we fed him, game him meds in the food, worked with him so we could scruff him and give him meds for the ear mites. We called him beetle juice since that's what he looked like at first with his hair all messed up, and blood stained face. After we got him used to us, we opened the shop door and put the food bowl inside. He's been an indoor cat since and part of the other 2 we rescued as well. I tried adopting him out, but he's so adorable and reminds me of our kids, just talkative and wants to play with toys all the time. So I can't let him go. But it turns out he has Feline Leukemia. So he's a sickly kid, always in the vets, but we have a son that was a sickly kid making him even more like park of the family. So thousands later this super good looking little guy is my little buddy always at my side. Great job on the build as well. I'm getting anxious to hear it

[@acidbyte4760]

What a lovely cat! Love that you took him in!

[@The144Kth]

Not into bass nor am I into car audio, but I love a good build...of anything! Your dedication to detail is insane!

[@moabs10blowthru41]

It took months for my 3 color oil based to dry,looks great exo

[@adddictionsGTP]

love the clear tube test. busted my theory, respect.

[@daineball]

the voice overs are 10/10, in like 4000 years this thing is gonna get dug up like the sphinx, its going to be in one piece all rust free.

[@fareedrakeib2546]

That colour will definately complement the subs... that gift was the best 👍👍👍👍

[@moose911ful]

Amazing attention to detail! Long time viewer just wanna say thanks and you're doin great👍

[@saydenramkissoon7703]

I wait for your videos everyday i love how you explain all the details

[@randystull1502]

[@playmaker77351]
