Burbanhunters progress (right section lol)

[Burbanhunter 10+ year member]

Ok the box was started today, but had to be started later in the afternoon because the installer/builders friend was in a car accident at 3 am yesterday so I told him to take his time and when he feels ready to start on his time. So this is the progress so far. I will be getting one more gallon of resin and order a roll of 19 oz glass mat for the bracing. I am going above the window line as you all can see. I will be triple baffling the face and doubling the MDF all the way around. This thing is a beast. With one baffle the height is about 24 inches, the width is 48 inches and the length is 52 inches. Big as hell I know. lol so get ready this box is about to be beastly. I honestly didn't think it would look this big.

I hope you are using a ton of screws and glue and no just nails and glue becaue when I tore out my wall i found out that the lower drivers side was loose. my box was 3 layers and when i built it I used a 5lb box of 1 5/8 a 5lb box of 1 1/4 and a 2.5lb box of 2 1/2's and 3/4 of a gallon of titbond. the way i did my seams was the first layer was screw from the side and the second layer was screwed from the bottom and the third layer was screwed from the side. i also used 2 1/2"s at an angle locking the layers together at the seams.I thought it was bomb-proof but wow was I wrong. so build it right the first time or you will be sorry you didnt

one other thing with the way the port looks and the placment of the subs.you could have backpressure problems with the 2 subs sitting by it. not saying you will but you dont want that to happen.I built a crx box for 2 9510d's it was 21w 12h 18d with a custom 7.5" areo port out the back and my first full volume burp smoked the first sub dust cap went flying and the cone got shredded so I plugged the woofer hole and did the same exact thing to the other said thing was it only did like a 146 on the TL. I found out that it was the motor beacuse they were only like 1" away from the side's of the box and that created a deadly back pressure on the subs. so my next box i built it 24" wide and never had that problem again.
