Cool box... but I'm not a fan of stained wood in a car. Period.

Which is one reason it isn't done a lot, but this looks good and I have seen similar projects turn out good looking as well.

i believe i said all the specs in the 1st page but its 5cuft, 6" PSP ports, tuned to 39hz. i clamped my amps and they are actualy doing 3500w at 45hz. i havnt even gotten the coils warm yet. so the XL's seem to be loving it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

ehh must have read over it. thanks tho, looks awesome and you got my vote on smd.

I personally love the wood look but I would have gone more of a gapless look between the panels like the floors in my house. but i like the different panels as opposed to once big piece of laminate or veneer. i just like the smooth look. another thing i may have considered is staggering the pieces so that some of them start and stop within the external dimensions of the box. again not ragging on it at all, i love it, just some things i was thinking about

sooner or later i will have a car with hard wood floors! always wanted hard floors in my car, easy to keep clean just gotta worry about rocks in teh shooz.

you know what, thats what i origionaly wanted to do. when it came time to cut everything i decided it would be too hard to stop the gaps from forming. i did my best to not have gaps but tiny mistakes from my cuts showed up.

eh, you cant please everyone. the car already had wood grain on the dash and stuff so i was just matching that.

Yeah. I mean, I understood what you were doing. The box looks well constructed, and it was kind of clever with the round ports. Although it brings up the question of efficiency, and why you just didn't put in a regular sized fan with a fan grille rather than that? I know it looks cool, but it seems inefficient.

Like I said, it looks really well constructed.

not bad my man, just looks out of place to me in that sea of gray or tan which ever it is. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
