Posted May 4, 200421 yr here is a few pics of a box i just finished for a explorer....the install pic is on another camera.....anyway, the amp was doa, so no beats yet.....however i did hook this up in my truck off my amp, giving them about 600 wrms, and while they aren't my 15's..they are indeed loud and very cleanoh yeah..they are in 1.75ft^3 apiece and the box has a fs of 38hz..well, according to mtx specs...so does that mean that it is tuned to 38hz?anyway, it is my first time carpeting a box and i almost didn't have enuff, so in the process a nasty seam was created..but it faces the back seat, so it won't be seen ........also...i charged $150 including materials,which came to $65 or so....too much or not enuff?? took 6 hours start to finish..lemme knowenjoy.....well, i hope...

May 4, 200421 yr Author yep..u can catch a glimpse of da wifey in the above pic...and here is my boy by the finished pic......
May 4, 200421 yr Author last post..hehe..i promise.....the subs are 12" mtx(duh) 7500's..they will be pushed by a mtx 801d..while the carpet ain't perfect, the box goes great with the explorer and hopefully i will get better at the carpet......the box in the background above is for an x-cab s10 and will hold two 15" id spl's for now...i am on my way to finish it now...quick pic of me spraying some glue..hehe...fumes?!?!?!oh yeah.......wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
May 4, 200421 yr Author looks good, what is the face of the box made out of?wood......... :thud: :boxin: :boink: hehe...for real, it's a pressed board (plywood like) with laminate on both sides, so the baffle is white inside and out. it's easier and about the same price (per size cut)as buying laminate seperate and gluing it to mdf...the sheet used in the pic came as a 16"x48" piece and cost $8.00 at Lowe's...all i had to do was cut it down to 15.5x42...tada!! instant white face...and it's just as strong (3/4" thick) as the mdf and is less porus. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Edited May 4, 200421 yr by mrray13
May 4, 200421 yr No such thing as too many pictures.I like the look of the box and colour scheme. The MTX woofers look good in there.I would say a melamine face. Edited May 4, 200421 yr by Below 30
