Im at my parents place for christmas, so im using up some of the scrap wood i had left here (you'll notice that the flush panel is MDF, where the rest of the box is not). There should be a few more box build logs after this one later on.

This box is for my girlfriends ford escape. its 1.2 cu ft @ 30hz, and will be for two sundown e-8's powered by a kenwood amp. I dont remember which model, but its rated for 500 rms @ 2, so it'll be more than enough.

The girlfriend bought me some jasper jigs before break //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif so i put them to use for this build.

Here's the pics thus far:

After its build, i'll be painting the port/flushed space between the subs red (school colors), and the rest of the box will be white (to match her SUV)

they are some of my favorites to play with. Nothing like doing a build for a pair of 8's and have it be louder/sound better than everyone elses pairs of 12's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
