Just thought I would share some pics from this little project me and a couple friends took on a cpl weeks ago.

So my buddy has had a single Image Dynamics ID10v3 in a sealed ~1cu.ft fiberglass box on ~250 wRMS for a while and he decided he wanted a bit more oomph. Luckily for him I had an extra ID10v3 sittin around and we had alot of extra supplies from the first build.

Heres pictures from the second box build, this time with an amp rack too!

Covered the area with tin foil.

Tarped over everything else to keep it clean.

Put in the makeshift amp mount bolts, covered the box in carpet, and mounted the speaker! The box on the left is the first box we made like 1 year ago.

Yes that is a sony explod amp, but it sounds fantastic. Pretty soon im going to Oscope/clamp that amp to prove to people that Sony amps are good budget amps.

All in all a successful build!
