I believe that one is aluminum.

Thats solid aluminum or just a sheet over some mdf.

i think when i attempt and build my first ported box if it comes out decent im going to put mirrors outward facing instead of paint or carpet. I havnt seen that too often and i think that would be kind of neat

i've seen it all too often, but looks good if you're subs got a fat *** //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

you think so? I dunno just thought it might be cool and to the guy below you i think he is thinking mirror inside the box because the way i was talking you wouldnt be able to see the "***" of the subs. They would be fully covered with mdf

sorry im off topic here i will stop

I seriously doubt that thats solid alluminum, that would have to weigh like 600 pounds, and its just something different, wouldnt have to worry about it breaking.

wouldnt show the motor, if the mirrors face OUTWARD (the outside of the box...)

Email Phil and ask him if you're skeptical.

It's solid aluminum.

Have you seen the box in person? If you look at the pictures you can see the MDF in side the sub cutouts. It's MDF wrapped in AL inside and out. Beautiful work. To make that from solid Al would weigh hundreds of pounds and cost several thousands of dollars in materials. It's sitting on a plastic garbage can. The can wouldn't hold that enclosure if it was solid Al.
