Bullet Proof Glass Enclosure?!?!?

[allanluberda143 10+ year member]

I just recieved a decent amount of bullet proof glass, and i have 2 15" l7 subs with no box. I have decided to make an awsome box out of it (sealed), but would it work, my boss said to me...

"if your sealing it, how will the sound get out...its 1" bulletproof glass"

That made me think, is there a such thing a TOO dense? or ....

is denser even better?

will a bullet proof glass box sound even better then wood? and will it hit harder?

or will it be too good and not allow any sound from getting out? (NO I DONT LIKE PORTED BOXS SON DONT THINK ABOUT IT)

ONE MORE QUESTION,

if i buy an amp that is 4 ohm stable, and lets say i throw a 1 ohm load on it(my l7's wired in a parelle) will my amp still handle it? does 4 ohm mean 4 ohms and under or 4 ohms only???

whats a good amp that would power

x2 15" s15l7 kicker subs? at 4ohms a coil? (dvc)

and what wiring should i use?

4 ohms means 4 ohms... if it doesnt say 1 ohm stable and its not a good quality amp, then it most likely cant handle 1 ohm.

ok thanks bk =-)

And 99old, lol ported boxes get me all comfused n shit, with frequencys and damaging speakers and so on, i like to keep it simple and caveman style....(build a square box hehe)

But yet no one has said weather a bulletproof glass sealed box would sound anygood...

L7's, but your sealing them....Well, ok:uhoh:

No such thing as too dense. But that bulletproof glass is going to be a ***** to cut compared to wood with little benefit. But it will be see through, definatly a cool upside

hell yea you will be able to see THROUGH my box i might put a balloon inside to bounce around or sumthing, sumthing out of the ordanary, so bulletproof glass would sound better then wood? AWSOME u sure? anyone else got ne comments?

Port them

yea if i port them i gotta have a pro do it cuz i dunno how big to make the hole,or how to tune it, or how that even works,

i figured id just make a glass sealed one and keep it simple...

ya that would make sense and possibly be true if they were all in the same section, but they are all in different sections

Or you could make it loud and sound lower //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
