I live in Canada, so you building me one and sending it would just be a hassle.

Im pretty sure me and my dad are very capable of building one, with or without plans... i was just wondering if there was some out there that were fairly striaght forward... but everyone really just wants to sell them. i'm sure i can manage. thanx though man

Just measure it yourself. Between 2 people it should be a weekends job. Its not as bad as it looks with all the angles, and one $30-35 (thats canadian funds, my fellow canuck ) 4x8 sheet of mdf will do it even if you mess up a fair bit. goodluck

aww, i love when people use me as an example. i feel so special now . yeah, but seriously, not to sound mean, but this does come up a lot. i found the schematics a year or two ago and put it up again just so this didnt become a daily question. sorry to sound like a jerk, but it does come up a lot for some of us who've been on here for a while....

Hey sboxem_72,
I got your message. What all do you need? I can get the specs on my box if you want but it is just a basic box. I will have to look for the thread that I originally posted it in to get all the info. deadtrend1 did the same thing but he bolted it to the side. I just put a speaker grill on it to keep it from hitting the plastic. I will get back to you with the specs.

Brian

just 1 10' now... i'm waaay too cheap

i'm thinkin' about scratching the two subs... too much money for me... brians got the right idea about 1 sub in the spare tire well. i'd rather spend the time and money on somethin' that makes my trans am fast
Plus if i did get another sub i'd have to get a whole new and bigger amp too... i've only got a rockford 150S for that 10'... and i'm fairly confident it'll push it no problem.
If you could put somethin' up about that box Brian that'd be tight.

hey 87 ta, I'm running two rockford amps the subs are two JL w3's dual 2 ohm wired for two ohm. The amp is a 250a1 bridged with the performance enhancing xover card. total output is just over 1000 watts on the scope.
