I'm using 9518g subs pushed by a hifonics xxv sampson with 8 kinetiks hc1800 batteries. I provided a link i have too many pics to post here.please give me any feed back.I still have alot of work left .this is just the start.http://s948.photobucket.com/albums/ad328/cmcveigh74/
November 30, 200915 yr Author The wood is 13 ply baltic birch plywood treated with epoxy resin. The epoxy is expensive but far superior to polyster resin.I have alot of work to do but it is coming along.

December 14, 200915 yr 152.2 sealed @ 36hz on dash with 2500 watts clamped at nspl show this weekend. The box still needs alot of work to be finished.Sweet!you know we gotta see those vids now!$250 bucks for the wood, wow, my build is under that, lol.on the birch, is there any issues with wood splitting like mdf?never have used it and just curious to how it acts.I know it is lighter in weight. The mdf is cheaper, but heavier and splits easily.Shizzzon sorta schooled me on doing away with screws and just gluing all joints, i am wanting to try this on my next box.the finished look with the gate down and all glassed is nice...any lighting behind there?chop
December 14, 200915 yr The build is excellant, the sound is sweat as candy, hits so hard I couldn't make a video with my cell phone because it blacked out on me! Man it is something to see and hear! Just one excellant build. Edited December 14, 200915 yr by ludeman
December 25, 200915 yr Author Looks like i have a Stetsom 14k2d on the way along with a second 400 amp alternator from dc engineering,also a module from missing link audio.I will add some more pics tomorrow.I'm currently doing 153.6 since i sealed the box from the cabin.Looks like a have a Hifonics Sampson available for someone for 900 plus shipping.
