Pike110 Silver Member Username: Pike110 12w6v2s, Indianapolis... Post Number: 395 Registered: Oct-05	Posted on Wednesday, September 05, 2007 - 02:35 GMT I have seen a couple boxes made for the solo x at a local shop and its a pretty involed enclosure. Like Mike said they double baffled and braced the crap out of it, and used 1" mdf for strength. The box was about 10 cubes and it was heavy as hell. Not a box for a beginner.
D-money Bronze Member Username: Basebalz13 Moneta, Va Usa Post Number: 19 Registered: Aug-07	Posted on Wednesday, September 05, 2007 - 11:45 GMT thanks pike n mike i planed on double baffle fiberglassing the inside and bracing the crap out of it in that other box build i liked that threaded rod idea and also using the triangles to brace so it goes to the side this aint my first box built but it is the biggest and most complex so anyone have any good ideas for aeroports for making it sound good and then another to hit that high # in comps 4 spl thanks guys
