That is a seriously wacko description.I am not articulating myself well today. How should I put it instead lol

I think the enclosure you're searching for is a well built parallel 6th ;P Just a recklessly large "sq" build xD I love clamshells, might just be my favorite enclosure style.

Maybe the factory is smarter than just the ground trick... Never heard of this =[

It's not the same as what you're planning, but I always thought it would be slick to have eight 18's sealed on a buncha power eq'd flat from 15-75. Any pics of current build OP?

Switching to a 5k amp versus a 4k won't be worth the money. Without taking into account thermal compression, you'll need to double power to hear a difference. I would just grab a third 4k,run one per sub on solid electrical and call it a day, but like I said, won't hear even that difference.

Pretty much. The BL is a bit louder, the Q is smoother.

I think that sounds excellent

Sub up port back, in 3-5cubes is what Fi recommends; I like larger boxes, takes less power to get what I want =]

I can see your pics of the comps, the truck and the woofers, or do you mean others?

It won't hurt the sub, it'll shine once you get a box up to spec though

Without jumping too far off topic, what don't you like about Focal? I like the towers I heard, except for the fact that the highs seemed a little too pronounced for my liking.

Noted, thank you =]Picked up a router with a standard bit and a roundover bit today for $25 MDF and cheap bits can be a dangerous combination. Be careful.Tried them out this afternoon, looks like they aren't as sharp as I thought. But $25 is the cost of some bits, let alone routers lol

Partly why I love audio is because it requires patience and practice to attain a good result, rushing is useless. I'm a very impatient, anxious, haphazard person by nature. For the first time I'm taking my time with a project, and I'm not mad lol. It's worth the days or weeks extra, the final result is much, much longer lasting.

No doubt. It's win win, saves me money, and saves weight on the enclosure.All thread is expensive o.o

I suppose I should have said, where to go on the site to order one, I'm willing to bet Fi carries gaskets since they sell everything else lol. All I see is recone materials and woofers. Should I just email them for something small like this?

My old gasket is all raggedy and ugly, where could I order a new one from?

Whoa o.o I had actually thought of using 2x4's from the the center of each panel and then securing them together where they meet in the center with Titebond and a bolt or two. I should have a 2'x 4' sheet left over, I can use that for bracing.

It's a bit more than your budget, but Icon or Ethos would kill

It won't be a severe loss im output, but the lower you tune the less output higher up

What twelves did he trade? The BTL is a monster =] Try an eight inch aero tuned to 28hz

Excellent. Pickin up panels this afternoon, going over the dimensions tonight and building this weekend =]

95Honda, are you saying I can skip doubling the walls since I'm going to be bracing all sides? Not sure if I'm doing dowels or alltread, but I was thinking two rods each side, front to back, top to bottom, side to side, as close to center of each panel as I can get without touching the motor lol

Thinking a square removable below the sub =] I'm installing winisd, I just got a computer this weekend, what exactly am I looking for on a graph? Edit: appears it's Windows only, What can I use for an old ibook G3? I got it pulled up in winisd on my friends laptop, There's less of a bump around 25-30 but the rolloff is smoother
