About EZ DB's Designs
Growing up, I always had a deep interest for building things, and understanding how things functioned and worked. Most people look at something and just see it for what it is at face value. What I see is almost an x-ray, like looking inside of it, imagining how all of the inner mechanisms and independent parts work together and function to make the product work and do what it does.
It’s ~2010, I’m 15 years old. And I have a nice AlienWare laptop that I want to get rid of. A close friend of mine has interest in it and offers to trade me two 15” Diamond D3 subs, a ported enclosure, a 12v car amplifier, and a modified PC power supply to power the amplifier from a house outlet. I say sure, sounds interesting! Never having experience with speakers before in this way.
I hook the subs up to my desktop PC. And immediately I am already tinkering with the setup. Moving the box around the room, changing the way the box faces, changing enclosure specs, changing enclosures. You name it I tried it. Come my 16th birthday, I get my first car. It’s a 2000 Nissan Altima. And I immediately figure out a way to slap the former desktop audio setup into the car. And the whole process starts right over. The tinkering, adjusting, tweaking, etc.
This snowballs out of control over the years. Constantly upgrading to larger and larger setups and tinkering with each one, squeezing every ounce of performance that I can from each one. In love with the overpowering, destructive force at my fingertips with the larger scale builds. Different enclosure types, different vehicles, building for friends, building for customers. Finding the patterns in how things interact with each other physically, mathematically, and how every variable plays into the final performance of the build.
For one of my builds, I ordered a box design from RAM Designs. I thought it was the coolest thing! All of the numbers crunched for me already, I just had to slap it together. And it came together beautifully. Some time later, RAM stops designing, and I am at a point where I am comfortable enough with my knowledge to offer this same service for people. Just something on the side to help pay the bills while going to welding school. I didn’t imagine I would be doing this for as long as I have. But here I am, nearly 10 years later, still dishing out box designs and loving it. Reputation and name powered strictly through word of mouth, and the undying love and support of customers over the years. I love being able to play a small part in bringing smiles to people’s faces, and will do so for as long as possible.
