[QUOTE="brandontw, post: 1214283, member: 553125"] Well I got to work on the box for the new Type X this last weekend, I went from a big nasty, complex, 4-10" ported system to a single Type X in a very small sealed box (about .9 cubes.) I’m still breaking it in... (I don’t want any "you don’t need to break it in" guff either. I pay 2 bills for a sub I’m going to at least give it a little break in.) I can already tell that it will blend a lot better and it already sounds a lot cleaner than my old subs and the amp is still most of the way down... so I think this little baby will have plenty of bump when I get her broke in. I didn’t get any pics of the build, but it wasn’t to exciting. Just a square box, gluing screwing, sanding, ect. I whipped it out in about 2 hours. Then covering it took another hour. I still want a grill for it, I was thinking something silver metal colored for some contrast with all the black, but im not sure what to get…I was looking at these: [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/POWER-ACOUSTIK-WG-12-UNIVERSAL-SUB-GRILL-12-CHROME_W0QQitemZ5821968394QQcategoryZ67773QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/POWER-ACOUSTIK-WG-12-UNIVERSAL-SUB-GRILL-12-CHROME_W0QQitemZ5821968394QQcategoryZ67773QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-12-Chrome-Bar-Style-Woofer-Grill_W0QQitemZ5799195908QQcategoryZ67773QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-12-Chrome-Bar-Style-Woofer-Grill_W0QQitemZ5799195908QQcategoryZ67773QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/UD-G306-Pioneer-12-Subwoofer-Grille-UDG306-Grill-NEW_W0QQitemZ5804509623QQcategoryZ67773QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/UD-G306-Pioneer-12-Subwoofer-Grille-UDG306-Grill-NEW_W0QQitemZ5804509623QQcategoryZ67773QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] Give me your opinion on the grill idea.
