[QUOTE="PowerNaudio, post: 1626415, member: 561215"] i believe pioneer or mtx also recommended putting sound deadening material inside the enclosure, to absorb the sound wave that's inside the enclosure to keep it from coming right back on to the sub. what audible difference it makes i haven't done any tests my self or research it further. you want to stay away from making a square enclosure. make them rectangular shaped if possible. use bracing on surfaces larger then 12" x 12" that's just me. and take in to account any displacement of bracing, sub and if you add internal angles on the edges or corners. use 3/4" mdf board on again enclosures bigger then 1 cu ft. if your cuts are not straight ether use clear 100% silicone to seal the edges or polyester resin. use glue on all seems. and screws every 2" to 3" what ever you prefer. some people prefer not to use screws if you don't make sure you held the pieces being glued with a clamp and wait till is fully dried before declamping.
