Steve with IXL-10 Install

Steve is a close friend of Big Dave and I guess they competed together years ago. While Big Dave likes to do things well, big, Steve is a bit more conservative which I can certainly appreciate. Here are some shots of Steve's build. Since taking these pics, Steve has added a second IXL-10, and is now talking about adding a third in order to enter a competition local to him (Ontario).

Using the Sonotube should hopefully give some people ideas on building a quick and easy enclosure that is stronger than any box:

And Steve is well, Steve. He's a guy my age who was heavy into the car audio scene years ago and is finding love again...

where do you get that tube thing? What is it made of?

 

[mrogowski 5,000+ posts]

You can get them from Home Depot. They are in the construction section - they are used for pouring cement. Good cheap enclosures.

what are they made of?

Simple cardboard. Don't discount that tho - using a round enclosure is superior to a box because vibrations are dispersed equally around the circle. No need for braces.

And its cheap.

Guys use Sonotube for HT installes where they dig down to 10Hz..

Hmmmmm..........I might have to get one of these.

So all you have to do is attach a baffle?
