Possibly the oddest sub enclosure ever

I didnt have room for the "run of the mill" sub box covered in blk carpet so i created this......Its based around 5meters of 6mm bar and some bendy MDF and Normal MDF Lots of epoxy resin and an old Fleece jacket
The first shot shows the sub,grill and partly made enclosure
The second shows the port being positioned........................................ ...........................................

Thats cool for something different! Good stuff.

It would be hard to calculate the internal volume until it is done I guess - then you could always fill it up with those tiny little foam balls or something to measure it - then adjust to suit the sub you're running.


Or just hook it up and crank it as is

:agree:

that's going to look great. Are you going to cover everything in fiberglass and then paint it?

Yes after much deliberation i have decided to paint it body colour, all the speakers im using are the POLK MOMO units they have fantastic grilles.
This picture shows it a little more along the way.
Fibre glass is great fun to work with dont be scared of it have a go
