got bored awhile ago. drew up my new box for a 12" Fi Q. i was highly considering to try a transmission line box, but eh, i'm still a noob when it comes to more technical stuff....and i don't think i have the patience to constantly mess with the tline to get it right for my sub. i still want to build one later on though. but heres what i have in mind...



now i gotta calculate port length and such.

well started construction on the box. it's really my first enclosure with kerf'ed panels. i reallllllly need to get some big clamps. that would have made things MUCH easier.




yes i'm using screws just to mess with Don


no clamps, so i had to ghetto rig it somehow. it works.

oh, a lot more? i thought they were going ~220 or so....or was that for the GD only?

he's currently running a set of crystals 6.5" components in his xB. they sound like p00p. tweets are pretty harsh no matter how i tweak and tune it.
