[QUOTE="d_sinsley, post: 8170643, member: 658010"] Thanks for the help. I figured a relay would be the way to go. I am familiar with them and figured this would be the way to do it. I know the remote turn on wire was not enough to feed them. It is just a remote wire to trigger an eternal relay in the amp, so I knew that would be a no go. So a relay it is. If the box/amp work as well in reality as it is in my head it will be cool. 10" sub mounted to a clear front with purple lights in the interior of the box and the amp in an enclosure with clear front also light by purple lights. Should be pretty cool looking. Only concerns are over heating the amp which I think three 80 mm CPU fans cooling the front of the amp and the back being exposed to the air will keep it cool. The other concern is flex of the 1/2" plexi. This sub/amp combo wont move giant volumes of air. 140W RMS is not much power to a sub, plus the plexi will be supported by the 3/4 " face frame and then sandwiched between the fram and the box. The whole rest of the box will be 3/4 MDF. I don't think it will have to much flex to notice much sound quality degradation. I will take pictures or a video. [/QUOTE]
