[QUOTE="Scarenius, post: 604855, member: 555987"] Math skills have never been a high point for me. I mean, I'm already spending $30 in materials for an enclosure that the nearest shop wants $200 for. Is another $15 going to kill me? Not really. I would naturally do the math myself, give whoever I pay the design so he can check over it and modify it as needed, but in the end, I take enough pride in knowing I built the box myself, I just didn't design it. Trust me, I am capable of enough trades as it is. I'm typing on a computer I built myself, visiting a site I programmed myself (not caraudio.com, naturally), attached to this PC to a car amp attached to my XBox, with RCA cables I made myself running between. Outside is the car I repair and maintain myself, and inbetween in the house I'm building. If you don't believe me, I can get a digital camera and prove it all. Penny wise, pound foolish and that, a shitty design will kill a custom built $30 box, wasting materials and lots of time. A $45 box, professionally designed, is significantly less likely to do that. Your instructions are good, no doubt. But in the end I will stick with what I am best at. [/QUOTE]
