I hope he sanded the paint off the top piece where it meets the other panels before gluing it on the rest of the box.

What top piece? The cutouts are fine. The subs cover them anyways.

from where? seems reasonably cheap

NC to MI. It was also 2 day shipping.

You guys have me worried this is going to sound like shit and if it doesnt it will fall apart. Then Im out $100 and without a box.

what we are trying to say is there are areas in which do not seem to be level. im hoping that the price is not relevant to the quality.......

edit:

i did not want to open my mouth about it as i didnt wana piss vitveet off

I agree. If I feel around the corners I can feel miscuts and edges that arent flush, but on the inside everything is caulked off evenly. The carpet covers the imperfections in the wood. Im afraid the corner that James Bang pointed out may be fvcked up and Im scared of port noise issues now.

like i said. lmk if shits mega messed up...... lol ive got sum time to build u a quality box pm me if you need anything. wont be 100 shipped thats for sure thou but wont break the bank. try it out c if the box sounds fine. make sure ur not leaking air from those baffle cutouts either bro

Shit anything at this point will break the bank. A pair of ID8D2V3's and a box was all I could talk my wife into. The cutouts shouldnt be an issue. The subs have never been mounted so the gaskets on the back of the baskets will seal up nicely. He had the sub specs so I assume the cutouts are 7.25" like specs called for. I guess I should get out a tape measure and start checking shit.

Thats absolutely brutal if those edges werent sanded flush to make a good seal, wood glu is strong when bonding wood together, not for filling gaps....

Id prolly puke
