help me!!!!!! my solo X sounds like shit!

do you have any recommendations of people who build boxes? and about how much will it cost?
also, anyone have the link to a box building tutorial?

thanks for all the help, this is just the beginning of my new hobby.
I'm still a noob around here so i really have no recommendations. Perhaps post a wanted add for someone to build you a box and see what offers you get. It won't be cheap. More expensive than a prefab without a doubt but well worth it. I've seen some boxes around here and these guys do good work. A box isn't hard to build if you have the right tools. I may have someone make me one eventually as I just don't have the tools to cut straight lines. If you can do that, the hardest part is done. Accuracy of cuts is most important. The supplies are cheap. Hell, I might even pay someone to cut the wood for me and assemble myself

pshh as far as supplies, i found that for the simplest of ported boxes all you really need is a good jigsaw, wood clamps, and a power drill....i mad my first one with no problem at all..DEFF IS WORTH BUILDING A CUSTOM BOX TO THE SUBS SPECS!! my sundown 18" loves its new home lol.

btw..the most underated tool, AN EXTRA SET OF HANDS!!..carrying big *** sheets of MDF sucks lol

EDIT: and obviously the essential glue, screws, caulk, etc. (i know someone would say something about that lol)

 
I thought i seen that you live in Davis CA? if thats right I know of this guy that builds some real nice boxes in Sac for a pretty good price he was gonna build me a box for 3 12's for a pretty good price..

 
good news. got a DMM and set the gain, built a ported, and all problems are fixed. i'm gonna go deaf real quick cause its loud as ****. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
