Check out my thread "starting over again" for the first pictures. I figured this was a better spot to post them so if a mod feels like moving the pics over to this thread that's cool.

Here's some update pics on the box:

5 sides completed.

Here you can see the molding that will help to increase air velocity..and SPL.

Here's the box in whole, minus the baffle which I had to recut as I wrote down the wrong measurements when cutting it the first time. I only had enough MDF for a single baffle, so I'll be doubling up on it later on when I buy more MDF for my Atlas box.

Ditto. If you are putting molding in on all sides, don't forget to put the pieces in the box before you put the last side on! lol

And it's done!:cheers:

I got it in my Jeep and right when I was about to hook everything up it started to pour, so i'll get to test it out in an hour or so.

I'm dying to know how this turned out! Just one question though, why didn't you center the sub on the top board? I'm just curious, nothing wrong with it.

Well..got the SX in and its loud as hell. I'll get some pics of it in the Jeep tommorow..with this setup the bass sounds more crisp than that of the SE setup..more than likely becaue of the enclosure. I will say one thing..my stock alt hates 1200wRMS...the lights are dimming terribly..time for a new HO alt very soon..

Here it is. You can't see the amp because the only possible way to fit it there was on the side of the enclosure. No carpet or paint on it as of right now..with as many different setups as I'll probably go through this year, i'm not sure if it ever will have a finish on it.

looks nice!

You should throw some carpet on it, help hide it a little better. would suck for someone to walk by and see that bright MDF and then noticed the sub, and then say 'don't mind if I do' if you know what I mean.

Haha..after 2 break ins and about about $1000 worth of stuff being stolen..I know exactly what you mean.
