New box for AudioQue 8s

[hazardous0388 10+ year member]

The box was designed by DJ himself, around 1.7 cuft net and tuned to 35-37 hz. The box is for 2 AudioQue SD 8's that i will recieve sometime this week or possibly next week, he told me they are backed up 3-5 days. So hopefully this week. But they will be ran at 2 ohm to my American Bass 120.1 I will also have my Northstar NSB 90 in the trunk. On to pics

Box with second coat

I might do an AQ design in gold on the top of the box to match my car color, although I might just leave it black too. Any opinions on this?

Thanks for viewing.

BTW!!!! My circular saw took a dump on me so I had to have lowes cut my wood //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif

The stupid **** tard ****ed up on two of the edges so I had to use a very little amount of caulk that I just spraypainted over with black, although this wont affect the sound quality at all. Everything is sealed up.

roll on interior paint covers much better, is easier to work with, and is cheaper //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif you should pick up a can //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

gold on black seems pretty tight, as long as you do a good job. Whats the in^2 of that port?

No, thats just how I've always made my boxes. It doesnt bother me. Its my personal preferance.

Taken out of context, that is quite hilarious. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Looks good. I'm a fan of using glues and clamps rather than screws, but to each their own.

I also thing the gold design would look classy if you did it well. Don't rush it and it should look great. Good luck

yeah either the golf or back he was talking about would look good...

you don't use screws to hold your box together? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
