[QUOTE="volkdent, post: 68314, member: 544853"] I'm sorry, Bean, I didn't mention this, but I've been into car audio for a long, long time. I have all the basics down, its the trickyness of the incredible pressure this woofer will be putting on the box, and my absolute abhorence of resonance that I'm asking for assistance. I do appreciate your effort though, so please don't be offended. I guess I'm looking for out-of-box ideas to make this box totally dead, strong enough, and light at the same time. I understand the usual mass increase/resonance decrease rule, but I always try to think of new ideas and look for new ideas from others. For example, one idea I was thinking about trying to copy was Lexis's metal/plastic/metal idea to get very dead luxury cars like the LS400. Perhaps fiberglass with layers of Dynamat sandwiched between, with areas open that bond the layers of fiberglass together. Or sound deadening tiles, like on ceilings in between. I don't know, I'm just looking for NEW ideas. I've deadened kick panel enclosures by running a layer of resin in side the enclosre, then putting a bunch of MDF sawdust in and shaking it around, then another bunch of resin. The enclosures were incredibly dense, but were ported and only servicing MB Quart 160 midranges. Go on, let your minds take a walk on the wild side and give me some sweet ideas! Whatya think? Jason Some of my really old installs, some from the late '80s! The blue kickpanel enclosures were my last, about 3 years ago.
