Team Bassick Update: Cage Almost Complete, World Domination Eminent

I just checked back up on the Team Bassick build post and it looks like things are coming along nicely on the bangin' Burban build. Looks like the cage is just about done, which means the guys can start getting down and dirty with the next steps in fabrication. I can't wait to see how this turns out! Here's a few sneak peaks. If you want to follow the thread over at Steve Meade Designs, click on any of the pics!

Oh yeah, and if you were one of the few folks who got hit with the Antivirus 2009 Spyware ad that appeared on CarDomain and SoundDomain, check out John's post for a details on this annoying and non-CarDomain- or SoundDomain- approved advertisement.

Monday Meade: New Victims & New Old Stock

Steve posted up a new video this weekend and two older vids from his "Inventory of Hurt". Here's the first vid:

"Went up to my boy Chicken's house and there is never a shortage of people who want to hear my beat....One of them was a non-believer a few days ago...."

Two more vids after the jump!

Team Bassick Builds Big Boom In A Burban

Team Bassick's Jason "Alpine" Evans has been documenting their Suburban SPL build and have posted up a ton of photos of the progress over on Steve Meade's forum, SteveMeadDesigns.com. The guys are building a complete steel square tube cage frame on the inside to keep the planned massive amounts of pressure in check. SoundDomain's Deafy negotiated with Fi to build some purpose-built  18" Fi BTLs (Similar to what Mr. Steve Meade is running in the Tahoe), which will be driven by four, yes four, of Stetsom's 7KDs. The 7KDs are pretty amazing mono amps, delivering a measly 2400 watts at 4-ohms and up to 7000 watts RMS when driven at 1-ohm! I guess that's why the truck was upgraded to run two alternators juicing out 19-volts and a total of 14 Kinetik KHC-16 batteries (that's 16V each...). They even went so far as to have custom wiring made for all the power connections, printing the Team's name on the wire jacket! The overall goal is to break the 160dB mark. We wish them well and we'll keep you posted on the progress. Oh yeah, and he's already gone through 300' of steel tubing and 200' of 2/0 wire!

Mid-Week Meade: Taking it Back A Few Systems

Steve put together a compilation of clips from previously unpublished videos dating back to 2004. This is pre-Fi, folks:

"Decided to mix up a few from back in 2004 that never made it to youtube...At the time i had eight RF BD1500.1 on four 18" subs powered by two Irragi alts and two or three batteries. First scene is a demo at my boy Felix's son's birthday party, musta been 50 kids there. Second is me doing a 157.3 on the NEW TL sensors (kickpanel, Usac) and last is some demo's from a show in South Sac...enjoy!"

 

Midweek Meade: Another Victim Feels the Pain

Steve gave more of his eardrum-splitting demos to a few new victims:
"Just more random slappage.....including video from 4th of July weekend, and even a visit from my boy Roscoe and the legendary Deaf-tonez (aka earthtonez)."
