Snail Art Car The Golden Mean

Step 15 Sound System

The sound system is designed to fit into a single NEMA box dubbed the "disco box". Inside we have a mixer, an FM radio transmitter (to link our sound with our other cars) and a relay to control the 110v power via a 12v dash switch. Mounted outside the disco box are speaker outputs, an iPod jack, a mic input, an inverter control panel and 110v plugs. Inside the snail shell roof we mounted 2 Mackie 450 Watt powered speakers pointed though the perforated side shell panels. Care was taken in the overall electrical plan to route the wiring as cleanly and hidden as possible.

We could now entertain a fairly large crowd and blow out the eardrums of everyone inside.
