  • @thejuanchomich fuck off. You dont do anything but sit on your ass all day long, i just gave away a bunch of shit to some strangers. If you or your ass-buddy dont like it, like i said, to fucking bad. Do something about it, deal with it.

  • do it even next time so everyone has a chance...

  • @DirectorsoftheDead i did. If you dont like how i did it.....TO BAD. LOL.

  • Should have did all 3 of the same subs and less technical stuff. just 3 subs. 3 boxes. 3 teams. GO! not a coin toss and all the other bull shit...

  • @DirectorsoftheDead run your own contest and do what you want. I will do things my way. Thanks anyway.

  • @meade916 im not rich and have time to waste. you obviously have both of them traits..

  • @DirectorsoftheDead i do more before 9am then you do all day...."time on my hands"...i wish. Also, im not rich but i work hard for what i have. You should try that someday. Maybe get up off the net and go find a job.

  • what type of material (wood) are they using?

  • @MrMacallu prolley mdf

  • Steve is like the Santa Claus of the Car Audio World

  • HEAVEN from 00:1-14:10

  • that pizza looks delicious

  • this was a cool idea for a couple vids, thanks steve, i hope to see one again in the future.

  • Did you get a refund for that cadence lol

  • I would shit my pants if I got a free T2500

  • @TheBassKing2000 shut the fuck up asshole, the secret is getting out about the videos clips,images and info you've been stealing from my account and other user accounts on here! You know nothing about rockford fosgate, or anything to do with car audio.

    And anyone that looks at your channel can see it's quite obvious that your just another common youtube troll with no life!!!

  • What wood you use?

  • what's the name of the song 3:40 plz

  • WHOOP WHOOP TO THE HOMIE WITH THE HATCHETMAN TATTOO @ 2:23!

  • what brand is the circle jig, I need one of those haha.

  • hey Steve, you should make a online contest, like people send you their video links and you judge based on the system and how good the ride looks as well.

  • I want one of those saws :(

  • Haha that's my celica in the back lol

    --kenny team 1

  • my god id love to have that 2500

  • DAYUM! Who's Celica GT back there?

  • Hahhaha badass

  • Sealed box retard

  • I've been working on my own sounds for awhile, still pretty amateur but I havent burned anything. I need to learn the basics of building a box, know any good dvd's or what ever. Im really the visual and hands on type so reading something on the web is out the window. Thanks in advance!

  • Also your towers turned out amazing Mr. Steve Meade

  • Easy E Boys in The Hood playing in the background FTW!

  • did everyone have to wire to 4 ohm for the contest? otherwise, someone had a serious advantage. the rf sub was dual 2, and i think the cadence was single 4 ohm. that amp makes drastically less power at 4 ohm than it does at 1.

  • @ktraughb its already been brought up that the cadence was wrong from the beginning. Nice observation though.

  • @meade916 Yeah I noticed the Cadence ended up being dropped anyhow, but I wasnt sure of the coil/s on the old RF sub as well. Just me being picky. It looks like pretty much everyone was taken care of anyhow, win or lose.

  • Do you happento know what the dimensions where to the kicker box? i want to build one for an old pair i have

  • Did a damn good job man. Personally I would have done 3 of the same woofers (brand and model) to make it all about the team's skills. But to each his own.

  • @thaostrich it was all about the teams skills using similar spec'd subs.

  • where can i grab those aero ports at my man?

  • what year honda is tht in the back

  • @EXOisBEAST man i want to kno that also its sweeet!

  • @pawly91 im almost positive its a 2000 honda civic there not very exspensive but u can definetly make those things look worth a lot

  • What kind of saw is that

  • Try Dubstep :D to ur Subwoofer ;)

  • those towers are beast! When i get my settlement from my work injury i want you to build me a set. to put out by my poolside!

  • the girl in white at 12:03 is hot ;P

  • great video, fun to watch even for not an audiophile... thanks! looking for more.

  • What in the blue/green honda? Like engine?

  • lol looked like a great day man!

  • First!

  • The persuader...thats what I call a traffic controle device!!

  • WHAT IS THE NAME BRAND OF THAT SAW ...I WANT ONE SOOOOO BAD.

  • this was a great idea for a video(:

  • @meade916 U have really motivated me to get back into car audio, great videos And that Tahoe is ridiculous, beautiful truck man

  • Kicker box looked good....should of put the fosgate in it. Sweet contest!

  • lol with this little persuader

  • To be honest I was most impressed with your home system. That shit is sick lol

  • hellz ya i want that Fosate amp! Lucky man!

    YEE!

  • hate kicker lol, but nice vid steve

  • Don't be so hard on yourself Steve. Everybody makes mistakes. Not too many people giving away the caliber of prizes that you are either. This was a great idea and I enjoyed watching it. LIKED!

  • WAT KIND OF MIDS AND HIGHS ARE ON THE BIG BLACK BOX WITH THE SMD'S

  • Wow great video!! I enjoyed it :) you should do more stuff like this.

  • what are the specs of the enclsoures the contestents made?

  • sorry found it

    

  • My question would have to go to the teams themselves. Why would you tune your box to mid 30 hz when one of the big factors in winning was SPL? The team that won could have used less wood, tuned to say 40hz-50hz and had a sizable increase in spl. The team the build the sealed box...wth were they thinking, not that it mattered since their sub went the way of the junk pile. But I suppose they won either way but not knowing then when making the build I would have tuned higher.

  • @yzf7steve well they were tested between 21 & 80 htz and it needed to be able do as close to all of the frequencies as well as possible so thats y we tuned to the 30s seemed to work out prity well for us , in the car at least.

  • @TheKenchase90 Yeah I can see your point there. Better than I would do since I have no tools! :-) I was just curious since I know the SPL guys always tune higher. I am currently running a factory made Kicker CVR enclosure and after doing the math it's tuned to around 39hz. It is loud as hell but thinking about building my own and bring that down to lower 30's. I love loud but I listen to alot of Death Metal and Black Metal and like a flatter curve on my box's response.

  • @yzf7steve depending if its 12s or what me and my team mate brandon generaly tune our boxes to about 34 or 35 for our twelves works prity good for a fairly wide range of music as long as ur deck has a decent cross over. iv got my 2 p2 12s in a ported box we built and i beleive its tuned to 34 and they get prity low and dont try to kill themselves when i listen to rock or metal if u build your own i strongly suggest playing with a slot port the contest was the first time we even tryed a slot port

  • @TheKenchase90 Yeah I bought the 2 12" CVR enclosure from work (Best Buy) and an alpine 1000 watt amp. My only concern with going with a larger enclosure is I'm already overpowering the subs by 100 watts per sub. If I went with a larger enclosure I'm worried I might exceed the physical limits on the sub. The factory box is shared chamber at just over 3 cu. ft. tuned to 38-39hz. I'm running an older Pioneer 5000 series which I love.

  • @yzf7steve thats easy....loudest is only one catagory. check it...

  • my mates sound system dealer was the on who said to kicker do not sell ur subwoofer or u will go bust... low n behold... it went bust :L he also advised my mate go for alpine :)

  • ahhahah can of spray foam ahah.. sooo dry

  • @meade916 im not against fosgate at all. i love that amp and id love to have it. but a whole system sounds better for that price to me because i do not have a huge amount of money for this kind of stuff and im not "sponcered" by them either. the AQ 2200 is going for 429 rite not and the subs for 279 for copper coil and 340 for aluminum. so for the price of just that amp i could actually get 4 copper voice coil 18s and an AQ 3500(799). so for a working 17 year old who buys his own, AQ is better

  • @trent1234108 MSRP on that AQ2200 is $875, the AQ3500 is MSRP $1599.99. Those subs are $340 each but im sure MSRP is twice that...just like the rest of their gear. You also have to understand, RF is a 35yr old company, a REAL company, not someone ordering equipment from some far away place and selling them on the internet from his house. Not that their is anything wrong with that but im trying to explain the difference. Plus there is technology in this amp that other brands simply dont have.

  • @meade916 thats still an amp and sub for less. i never said there was anything wrong with the RF amp. i used to use 2 RF 12's HEs and they were great. dont think im hating on RF im just saying it would be more prfactical for ME to get AQ. if i had lots of money id buy new RF amps and AA subs like yours. but i dont man im 17 like i said. i make an honest $8 and have an okay stereo and a good truck. yep i have AQ subs. im proud of what i got. why hate on me for stating my opinion?

  • Thailand V's China V's Malasia

  • *FAIL*

  • How much to build one of the fiber glass speaker stand with the woofers that shit would slap in the house

  • @Da85prince Watch more vids bro on the build of them. There not fiber glass. They are MDF, Neo, SMD, RF, Resin and Piano Black liquid. Cheers Bro....

  • I think you made the mistake on purpose because you just wanted to be nice :)

  • ok so im watching this vid high and i confess....i stare at he honda the whole time.lol i miss my civic! why not more vids on it?!?!?! :)

  • Rockford For the WIN.

  • Hey steve can you demo tech n9ne delusional in your truck? You don't have to if you want...

  • how do you tune a box?

    

  • is that a 77 Toyota celica gt @ 13:13?

  • lol at the end of the video they made a port for the other team

  • do you have a parnership with utube yet/?

  • @90nikefootball yes, for almost 5 years. Why?

  • @meade916 havent seen any commercials 

  • @90nikefootball thats because i didnt apply commercials to this video. There is ads though, look to the right and in the video lol - you dont know much about youtube partnerships do you? doesnt seem like it.

  • i shure could use a newbox. i bought a sealed box with 2 12 from my friend and when i replaced the woffers with new ones, the inside of the box was all moldy :(

  • looks like team 3 sealed up all the sound inside their box too lol

  • DAMN.. A 2500bd is a GREAT PRIZE>>>>it really doesnt get any better then a bd2500

  • guess some people never heard of a "sealed box" haha

They might not even accept a compensation... Just to know you are even willin to make and post an apology video and It would be nice if the other team that got to boast and destroy the other teams box would give them the prizes they didn't win in the first p

  • woop woop mmfcl rock thehatchit

  • @truejuggalos FUCK YEAH NINJA

  • how do they tune the box?

  • how much RMS where you putting on 'em??

  • Steve...you are an absolute internet sensation for car audio...no doubt about that, BUUUUT you ARE still human....humans DO make mistakes!!!! I could have come in 3rd place and would have felt like a winner there just hangin out w/ you and all those guys! Besides, this was the trial run of contests...means room for errors!

    STEVE YOU ROCK! AND TO T1 AND ALL THE OTHER TEAMS! GOOD JOB ON THE BUILDS! CONGRATS T1 AND BAD ASS BOX!!

  • thats the same setup somewhat i have at my channel epopecurb

    1 opti 2000d

    1 opti 1532d blew it 3 weeks ago and replace it with a opti 1535d at no extra charge

    i will be posting a vid soon.. i should have got the 1535d 1st

  • Great job on both the boxes ! Really like how you are trying to give back ! Mad respect ! Keep Bassin ! BASSHEADZ UNITE !!!

  • Loving the Eazy-E tune at 3:30

  • how many hours did they use to make the box?

  • Having a port war was stupid.. Of course the Aero is going to win vs a long slot port.

  • What shitty prizes you could have gave one of the subs that the teams used to the 2nd place winners

  • what is the kind of wood you use called

  • I'll buy the RF amp if he doesnt use it!!!

  • kudos to Steve for hosting this. Looks like everyone had a great time.

  • Damn I wish I had a circle jig! That would make everything a lot easier

  • Team 1 WHOOP WHOOP!!! MMFCL

  • 6:44 i thought it would be a peice of shit, i've never heard of that brand before

  • wouldn't a band-pass box be best for bass?

  • @craptastic5 I have one, and it gets crazy lows, but not that good of highs. It all depends on how its built though.

  • Everyone makes mistakes Steve.

  • Steve your the best.

    Greetings from Macedonia :)

  • shits annoying when it has to keep loading

  • that box comp looked fun. wish I could have been in it !! first time I every seen something like that... nice meade..

  • Dam steve, mad props on manning up to your mistake. Your cool as fuk!

  • Thumbs up for being a good sport about making a mistake!

  • this looked really fun lol...is it just me when he flipped that hugr box back at 11:05 it looked like it hit the tahoe lol but then that lift pole is in the way

  • can anyone tell me if that site will ship to Canada?

  • Man that sucks for team 1. But I know you will compensate them nicely. Good contest Meade, lets see some more like this. Use an 18 next time, lol.

  • Comment removed

  • @ljmike1204 lol - what?

  • Comment removed

  • @meade916 I'm sure you prolly know what he's asking...but for those who dont, he's asking if the subs will blow since there seems to be no port, but the answer is no, a regular sealed box in your trunk is the same way...there's no port to blow the air out, or bring more in, but the box is not air tight, the subs make the bass by flexing in and out, causing the air in the box and out of the box to move. If i'm wrong, please, Steve, or someone on here explain. I'll take it as no insult and learn.

  • @letemrip32 Steve built those towers with passive radiator cones on either side of the sub. The passive radiator looks just like a sub on the outside but has no magnet structure behind it. They allow the internal volume of the box to expand and contract while the sub is playing and therefore it reacts very similar to a ported box without the need for a physical hole. This setup is pretty popular in home theater. Hope this clears it up a bit.

  • @bodyDropon20s Thank you for explaining that to me...now those other "subs" acutally make more sense lol. Steve, i apologize if you explained that while building the towers of power and i may have missed it. bodyDropon20s, thanks again!

  • @meade916 i think, he meant to ask if, since there is no ports for the subs on your towers. wont they get hot.. or something.

  • @LuC1Fr ports arent for cooling your woofers LOL

  • @meade916 Oh, i know that.
