The sub would actually have been easier in Invetnor. SolidWorks isn't as good with arrays. Inventor is the shiznit. FYI, if you can run Inventor, you'd pick up SolidWorks very quickly. Not that radically different. But Inventor is built on a newer solid modeling engine, and it shows. Its much smoother, and has fewer steps to do alot of things.

May I ask, what do you do for a living audio?

Hey audioholic, two things.

1. Are you just screwing the amps straight to the box, or are you using rubber feet of some sort between the amp and box to absorb vibrations?

2. You are my hero because this is a sick *** setup and you can tell it took a ton of planning and work.

University of Central Florida. And yes I really enjoy playing with CAD, I was really into high detail renderings and was quite good at it many years ago now. 'Working' with CAD is like playing video games all day long to me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

1) I screwed them directly. I know I should use feet, but Im lazy, and never once had a problem with an amp mounted to a box. That and the fact that the way the soundstreams mount, I dont see rubber grommets isolating much of the vibrations.
2) Thankyou. It actually has too much planning. I spend way too much time planning crap out, changing my mind, drawing it elenty billion times... instead of sometimes just rolling up my sleeves and just doing it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif And my finished product is never as elaborate as my plans anyway. lol

I just made a deal with some up and coming rock band to have the Hummer in one of their videos that they are shooting here next month. I told them 'it aint pretty, its no yuppy hummer'... the lead singer said 'we dont want pretty'. lol
Thanks everyone. The comments are always appreciated.

Cheers.

Sweet man, looks nice. Now break that box down into individual parts, give me an exploded view and a cut list! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
