[QUOTE="Upgrayedd, post: 6466767, member: 616248"] For years I have wanted to try an IB setup. Well. I finally Decided to give it ago. While waiting for the rack to free up to put my engine In I decided to start the project. With only a jigsaw, square, and chalk I got started. After Inspecting the deck, I decided that it was just too uneven to slap some mdf on it and sprayfoam it. I wanted to make use of anything on it. If it went there it was rigid. So... After measuring and marking this happened.

I will be using spray foam along with your abcs of dampening, just sparingly. You don't build an enclosure to flex and I feel IB is the same way. I will be running 3 10s in this byotch.
