January 18, 201114 yr Author oo mdf veneer is still MDF but with top and bottom oak on it! nice! where did you buy that from? home depot because i don't think i have seen that before there, also how much did it cost for a sheet? if you can remember off handHaha yes I bought it through a local wood shop/ dealer in which I got employee discount (because I am t3h c00Ln3ss!) haha jk my friends dad is the owner. I got it for around 30 bucks a sheet, which isnt bad since its not far off from regular MDF. Im not sure about what it would be retail price... but I can ask.
January 18, 201114 yr oo nice! no need to ask what it retails for if you got it for 30 i can imagine it goes for 40-50 as it has oak on the top and bottom! but you can tell me how the subs sound in the box! lol!
January 18, 201114 yr looks good! birch ftw!Its actually MDF with an oak veneer That's awsome! They sell it like that?
January 18, 201114 yr why not subs up/port back? not enough room for port release?It would seem a shame to hide such nice looking wood under bed liner. what color is your interior? any wood grain already in the car? A nice stain or whatever could look really nice.

A nice stain or whatever could look really nice.My first box I had was subs up and port back, and it just rattled the piss out of my back hatch (with lots of deadener even).. so I just wanted to hear how this design sounded. But yes it would be a shame to hide it, but I almost think it would look dumb with a blah interior graphite color (dark grey) with no other woodgrain. If it was in a Rolls Royce I would definitely stain it
January 18, 201114 yr Author Is this in your truck yet?? Wat power are ya feeding them subs??Haha not yet Its cold out right now about -5.. so Ill wait until it gets a little warmer. But Im gonna be running them on a Soundstream TX12600D
January 19, 201114 yr Author Smalll update.... got the bolt terminals in, and is now ready for paint/ bedliner
February 7, 201114 yr Author Havent updated in a while, but finally got my amp in and box painted. Below zero temperatures, snow, me being busy, and no garage = nothing getting done But here we go for the updates...Got the box spray painted right now ( I know, dont hate me haha) the port is textured spray so it looks really good!I know she is a little dusty, been sitting in the garage for about a half a month
February 7, 201114 yr I cannot imagine how this will sound! You will have to keep wrenches and tools in the truck just to tighten things up every few days, lol.
February 8, 201114 yr Author Let me just say, it is my best sounding and loudest box I have ever had... I havent really set the gain just yet, I ordered an oscilloscope a few weeks ago (from China) which was 70 bucks, so Im waiting to get that in, set the gains, and REALLY wang it.DSO Nano is the oscilloscope if you want to check it out! Pretty neat and extremely cheap device!
February 8, 201114 yr Author Heres what the port looks like..It doesnt look very dusty in real life, but DAMN it looks ancient in these pics..
February 8, 201114 yr Author lol looks like a small animal could live in there! how much port area?I could live in there haha but its 150 sq inches, I wish I could have gone more but that would sacrifice some cu ft. of the total volume, and with Blazers you got to find all the room you can which is what I did

I bet that thing pounds!Nice box build btw.I havent turned it up too much.. waiting for my DSO Nano oscilloscope to come in so I can set the gains, and REALLY wang em. But so far, even with them barely moving, they sound wonderful!
