I would recommend one of these! Fiberglass body and a plexi glass top! I still can beleive its sitting in my living room.(check the ***** post on fiberglass boxes for detailz) Well it depends on what you want to spend. This box is going to be worth more that the speakers that I'm putting in it! (alpine type R's) If you want a good deal talk to the person up there (tamu130) That is the best priced wood box that I have ever seen. Or you could open up a crutchfeild mag and look up that same box for 300 bucks. hmm.... maybe not.

Here is what I threw together
(Made in the USA!!)

I could, just have to add up what it cost me to put it together. This box here was a batch to make. Mostly because I first used fleece to shape the box. Now I know that was a bad Idea. With out the fleece the box would have been cheaper and easier to make. That top was about the easiest thing about it. Took about 4 hours. When I got done with it I thought "you know why didnt I Make the whole thing out of plexi glass? " Oh yeah, those plexi glass sheets arnt cheap. It took 26 bucks worth of plexi to make that top. But its worth it. I'll see if I can put together a list of supplies of what I used on my ***** page about fiberglass boxes.
