Lol i though i said 3\4 was fine lol. all i said i would still want to be 1inch is the top that hold the subs in place preferably birch\oak just because of how strong it is.. and how much tighter my screws will go into the box without ripping the wood to pieces like old mdf boxes i had. What would you have to special order? do u got AIM?

ive never seen 1" anything at a hardware store/lumber yard... but thats just me :-)

not much demand... its generally more expensive than just laminating 2 .75" panels.

No i havnt yet logan, i have been kind of busy. If it will all be 3\4in. thought, i guess i can do it myself its a fairly simple formula.... 16sq of port for every 1ft cu. space.. the Port length will stay the same.I really dont want to bug DJ anymore he helped alot, im sure it took a hour or so of his time..maybe less? Lol Ill try to get this done tonight and send u the moded diagram..(just changing numbers on it lol)




BTW do u think my subs will bottom out in that big of a box... i wouldnt think so because its within DD specs... but also double the power...

about 5-6cu ft per sub after displacement tuned to 40hz with 3Krms to each...
