(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/cache-03.gawkerassets.com-1435-1268538662.2.jpg) I think these would be easy enough to make. I have plenty of ammo cans, some left over RaaMat sound deadener. I'd need speakers, an amp, minijack hookups and some sort of power supply. I can't imagine that it would be hard. I think this is cool, but it is not $600 pounds cool. Not when I can make one myself. Help me find the components to make one. The box pictured uses a 70 watt amp, and a battery pack to be mobile. I think I'd rather be able to plug it in, but having batteries would be nice for backup. Zach |

I have both 50 cal and 30 cal cans. i am going to try and use a 30 cal can. With the RaaMat for deadening I will still have 3.25 inches internal.
My speakers only need a mounting depth of 2 inches, and the amp need a depth of under 2 inches as well. I am going to have plenty of room in the smaller ammo can, but if not, I'll use a bigger one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Mike, I ordered a better soldering iron (then the one I have, dunno about yours) to bring my order to the point where it was free shipping. But, i will still be looking for your guidance as I bough the total DIY amp that I am going to have to solder the connections for. I was able to find everything on that site - including the 8AA battery pack that I am going to use for the battery power. I also picked up a relay for my 914 hella horns, seeing as I broke the one I was using on Tuesday. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Zach |
