I never liked putting the baffle inside the other boards, i usually put it on top of the other ones. I don't really know why, but i think it's better that way. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

In any case, nice work for only your 2nd box.

i personally think it looks pretty ghetto when you stack another piece on top of it for a double baffle though.

why not runn the speaker wire through the port, no need to worry about air leaks in the back of the the box. It looks good. nice build

Or just use a speaker terminal:idea:

Looking good. Don't like the use of liquid nails, but it's your box.

I think its more of a strength thing than an aesthetics thing though. Screwing DOWN the baffle instead of screwing INTO it.

I don't know, call me crazy. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

just one question if your folding off the upper corner of the port shouldnt the inside corner be folded to run with it so they are / / instead of / |

well with 4cuft and that much power you want to insure no flexing of the mdf. them top and bottom boards look to be about 38" x 24" thats alot of flat area to not brace when pushing subs that can hit 150+ dB
