SQ subs on roids. People get so caught up watching youtube vids of people putting up these huge numbers on fart boxes that they let the joy of sounding good every day pass them by.IMO, the XCONS are a fantastic sub for a loud ass ground pounder set up.
October 13, 201014 yr Very true. I think the cone area and power you'll have in the future will be a fantastic daily driver. * Not saying what you have isn't, just louder is always better

October 18, 201014 yr Author Got a good bit done this weekend! Not as much as I wanted to, but a pretty good start.I have all the sides, front, back all glued together, and I have cut all the port and bracing.Now I need to glue it all together and put the 3 top baffles on.Here are some pics.First got to keep this handy to keep the ghetto work area clean.Also helps to hide these from the kids. Cant have them thinking Daddy is lush. lolOkay, so here is the work area. I know ghetto as hell, but you run what you brung. Life happens and the need for 5 bedrooms was stronger then my having a garage. The wife made a deal with me tho, she gets hardwood floors and I get to build a shop. Really, it just takes a lot longer and you have to work smarter, but where there is a will - there is a way! For anyone scared about making straight cuts with a skill saw, here is your friend. Clamp or screw a guide to the piece you are cutting and BAM nice straight cuts every time. Not pictured are the ghetto saw horses. I have not figured out how to cut directly on cement, YET. lolSo here is the carnage: tripple top baffles and the bottom are cut, but I didn't glue them together just yet, will do this when I put them on the box, one at a time.The front, sides, and back all doubled up and glued together. This is going to be heavy!Starting to cut the bracing, yes I am old school and use a jig saw. Maybe one day I will get a router, but I do pretty good with this if i must say so myself. High speed, coarse blade, and go SLOW = Nice results.All the port and bracing cut ! And after all that, I just had to mock it up to see what it do ! Everything fits together nice, but it wont stand up! My wife doesn't love you guys as much as I do and couldn't talk her into holding it up while I took a pic. I may have to trade her in for a newer model if she don't start being a team player. lolSo now comes the fun part and putting all this together. Going to have to get some more hands over here for this one, it is massive and I am too old to try and do it alone. lolHopefully this time next week, I will be putting this into the Yukon and tearing shit up. Oh and I got an email today from tejcurrent and my dual bracket and alternator should be done here pretty soon. Got to keep your amps happy!
October 18, 201014 yr Dont go to sleep, clamp wood together and finish box tonight. Just playing have fun man cause this enclosure is going to be fresh when its completed. How are you going to cover it: carpet, vinyl, bedliner?
October 18, 201014 yr Author Old guys do nice work.Lol:popcorn: Looking good.Thanks man, not my first rodeo that's for sure. lolWICKED enclosure. nice free hand cuts!Thanks bro, I am damn excited to see how it sounds. The design is badass, Dylan does nice work.When you dont have anywhere to put a table saw, you do what you have to do. The guide makes it easy, but you have to double and triple measure everything. If you have a tape measure and a skill saw, you can make anything. lolDont go to sleep, clamp wood together and finish box tonight. Just playing have fun man cause this enclosure is going to be fresh when its completed. How are you going to cover it: carpet, vinyl, bedliner? I am going to cover it in vinyl this time around. Should be a little easier since it's all a flat surface. At least I hope so. lol :dancing:
