UPDATES!

After an hour drive from work today I couldn't wait to get home and work on the box! I started by demolding the port tube, after about 15 seconds of prying I realized this mold wasn't going to survive for very long. Oh well, sacrifices must be made! I broke the Sonotube free from the base, and cut it from the inside all the way down. The cardboard came right off leaving me with a perfect form!

And now, through the magic of time lapse *insert saw buzzing here*

Tada!!

It came out tits, MUCH better than I expected! For only two plies of glass, the flared end is SUPER strong, it doesn't flex at all. However, I still need to construct a mini-mold for the flare on the other side.

Now, to get it into the box!

Circle jig

Just had to drop it in there.... sweeeet!

All that's left is to flare the other end of the port, mount it, top off the box, bracing, and I'll be ready to rock and roll. Stay tuned

Looking good.

Well I'm being held up by the fact that I don't have any more resin, I'm going to have to wait til payday to get some more to finish the port. In the meantime, I finished the box, mounted the port and hooked it up.

First impressions, it's definitely as loud as my Q's were, strangely enough the bass also seems much "punchier", quick transitions in bass notes sound sick and a lot more defined that in my old setup, the low end extension is pretty sick as I predicted, my only qualm is that long constant bass notes tend to sound a little muddy, but I'm chalking this up to the fact that the port needs a flare on the back end.

Sub is facing up firing into the car through the rear deck hole, and the port is facing back towards the trunk lid. Will try and post some more pics tomorrow.

Port looks great!! Excellent work on the flare!! Tuned in to see this completed!

Cool beans, must hear.

Sweet job on the port!! keep up the killer work.

looks good! good to hear that the bass is punchier, thats always a plus. My 4th order isnt as punchy and detailed as my previous ported enclosures were. I think you made the right choice.

Thar port looks tits!! i might (ok i will) copy your port idea!!!!!!!

Holy Shit Matt! you should make these and sell em I need a 10" port.

:drink40:Give yourself a hand.
