[QUOTE="PowerNaudio, post: 1813874, member: 561215"] @ Spkrman: i dont think that $190 is allot for an enclosure, i dont know your building technics or what ever, but a decent enclosure designer/ builder that will create a well built enclosure and values its time should not charge any less then $150 for a slot ported enclosure, yes aero ports do add to the cost. one thing i have noticed on this forum. is that they expect to pay the same price for a custome built enclosure as they where for a prefab. and thats a hell no!. localy i have sold my enclosures starting @ $140 for a single sub slot ported enclosure ~ $400 for a fiberglass enclosure and never had a complain. but these are guys that dont spend theyr time looking for cheap as boxes on the internet. they go to the local shops and see what theyre getting and then come to me for a better enclosure for less even if its still close or over $200. but then again i deal with mostly adults. people with a permanent job. not kids that work at macdonals. " not trying to offend anyone". but those are the ones that think time does not cost money. i charge for materials, shipping and handling, and what my time is worth, and when you build quality enclosures you expect to get payed for the quality provided. if some one wants to compare enclosures but dont want to pay the price the other builder is charging, your best bet is to study up on the subject "enclosure building" and go at it, build a couple of enclosures using diffrent parameters and taking diffrent aspects of the enviroment of where the enclosure is going to be installed in into account . and compare what work best. youll find out that allot of the things people do on enclosure dont work as well as they say it does or at all. and that some techniqs that people overlook are the ones that do make an audible diffrence. 5:48am time to go to work. laters [/QUOTE]
