Audio Section


It used to be nothing but old school hardcore east coast rap and all kinds of reggae, from dancehall to junglism to roots to rocksteady. Now, what comes out of Skull-1's speakers is mostly trance. You don't need to be conned into thinking only a $10,000 system will do. Here's a preview.



Fresh for the year 2002, these are Audiobahn 12" AW 1200Q, rated at 700 watts RMS and MAX at 1,200 watts. These are big, heavy sons a bitches. A bang for the buck Lanzar VHC 2000 was chosen to power them.



The passenger's side is named Daedalus, and the driver's side Prometheus, you already know why.




At the request of my great fans, here are pics of the box I built in early 2002. It was designed with an NX bottle to be hidden underneath. I just built it, not really giving a shit if perfect volumes or whatnot. I am not to get any trophies for looking pretty or how loud I sound. Measurements on next page.




Careful attention WAS paid to of how the rear curves and the keyhole trunk release is shaped.




Here, you can see the carpeting job. It's not the best in the world. However, you'll never see it, so who really gives a shit. If you think you need to spend $200+ for some wood you're fuckin nuts. It only took a week off and on to complete. About $25 for some medium density fiberboard, $2.00 on wood screws, $2.00 each for speaker terminals, $10 for carpeting, and a waste of $7.00 spray tack that was less efficient than wood glue. If you're either lazy or lack skills to build an easy box, then don't try this at home.




This is obviously the front of the finished setup. It is one heavy son of a bitch, lemme tell ya. Featuring the aircraft carriers Daedalus and Prometheus, you can see the SDF-1 in the middle.




Currently in it's early stages of design, here is the trunkspace that will contain the woofer box, the nitro bottle, and the VHC 2000 amp. As you can see, the VHC 2000 was not thought of during the design of the box. You can see it stick above the level where the Jensen amp is. Attatched to the VHC 2000 are some MDF boards that will have a fused distribution block and capacitor. This makes for easy removal of the whole shit.




To prevent suffocating the VHC 2000, a few PC fans will be used to get air underneath the box.




Here's a close up of some PC fans that sometimes work. Mostly they just provide noisy interference. The ground distribution block is here as well, but it will be switched with the power bloack instead, as there is no room for the 2.4 capacitor on the other side next to the bottle opener.




Using "L" brackets and various crap from Home Depotheads and Lowe Lifes, boards were made to attatch distribution blocks and other junk. They were screwed onto existing holes on the VHC. This also prevents thieves from wanting to house your shit. Have those amps insured if they are sitting on the gas tank, if you don't punch a hole in it while drilling.
