I had a type-r as well. But then went to hopefully an upgraded rsdc124. I hope I like the sound and it impresses me. and someone please tell me if that is right mounting the sub like that. WTF I have never seen that ever? Is that cuz your in england so you do it backwards? haha jk But still someone tell me wtf is up with that and should i do that with my rsdc124.

its just inverted, it functions almost entirely the same as normally mounted.. makes calculating box volume size a bit easier.

I just got a RSDC102 sub. I will be putting this in shortly. Not sure what box I am building yet. I am thinking about a bandpass box. I will post pics when I am done.

I have mine in a .44 sealed enclosure and the output is amazing. I still can't believe how low it plays. I would try sealed first just for fun; the box is easier to build...lol

Looks great. Is the enclosure bolted down to keep it from rolling around?

x2; looks great, and curious about the safeness of your sub ebclosure.
Be carefull with those heavy things, as they can literally can kill you in an accident.
Nicely installed.

Nice work!

The one thing I see that would be easy and make it even nicer would be to paint the wood under the trim panel black. It would make the gaps around the amps and other devices disappear. I know photo's can sometimes exaggerate those things too.

I was going to respond with the same thing, but it looks like a flash was used in the pics, so I doubt its even noticeable in person.. clean looking install, especially with the PITA profile of the RSD's

I like the looks of the layout for the amps and such, but the sub looks out of place.

Very clean otherwise.

You are exactly right, I should have painted all the wood black. It is not that noticable in person, but you can still see it. The enclosure is bolted to the sub frame of the amp rack, and will never come loose. I will get that RSDC sub in this week sometime. I will post some pics after fully installed.
