Enclosure Build: Steve's 15" Crossfire XS V2

[Pioneer~Saturn 5,000+ posts]

Alright, Steve (BassikInstincts) drove out today to get measurements, help get the birch to the shop, and the aeros squared away. This will be for his 15" Crossfire XS V2 on a SAZ4500 in his Malibu. The whole enclosure will be double-layered and finished off with a radius on all of the exterior corners (minus the bottom).

Specs come to:

-3.65 cubes net

-36.5Hz tuning

-(3) 4" aero ports

Got started and all of the vertical/side panels doubled-up but no pics of that for right now

Alright, got started on these ports a little while ago...not exactly the simplest of tasks to do perfectly but they're coming along (had to make them very tightly packed to fit the sub next to them...you'll see)

The planning took a little while but got it done...

First aero's outer flare cut...

2nd aero outer flare cut...

Got rid of the excess material around the inner ring on the inside flares...

Inside flares...and a warsteiner to help the building along today.

More when it happens...

That tri-port looks bad as hell, looks like it's gonna be an awesome build

Such a dope way to make that port. Looks time consuming.

Thanks, man //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

And I cut it+made it that way to fit the sub...simply couldnt fit the 3 ports in the enclosure without the motor hitting them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif but I like the way it turned out for sure //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Alright, pretty darn close to being done...just need to clean everything up still, roundover all of the exterior corners, and make a support for the interior flares/tubes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Random pic of the interior flares...
