[QUOTE="swimfreak26, post: 876886, member: 544365"] The first reply is correct except for the generalizations about general size of a driver...you don't want to just make the second cutout "a half inch bigger," there should be accurate measurements. The way to go about it is to make the front baffle, but instead of cutting the hole to be the cutout diameter of the driver, make it the entire OUTER diameter of the sub so that the driver can barely fit through the hole. Now, the second baffle (really only needs to be a ring) which will be mounted inside the box, should be cut the typical way, with the cutout diameter cut out. Next, mount the smaller ring behind the front baffle INSIDE the box. Build up the box like normal now, and when you put in the sub it will drop through the first layer of MDF and sit on the ring you made...creating a flush mount. [/QUOTE]
