Another box Idea, can anyone help?

Ok, here's another idea. Take the "ultimate sub box", build it normal, and then build up a little more and put plexyglass it to make bandpass that way. It sounds like a good idea, but i dunno how high to build up or anything like that. Anyone else done this/thought about it? anyone got pics if they've tryed it?
Here's a pic. (I think this is CAMp30's box I used to photoshop, so if you don't want me to use it CAMp30, just tell me and I'll remove it)

HEEEEEY, who's using my box?!?!?!. jk. the problem with bandpass is that is an extremely exact type of box. you need the internals to be to the exact spec for them to sound right. in my opinion, the means do not justify the end. too much work and requires a lot of space. however, i have thought about making a box with a plexi top. would look great to have a sub appear like its floating in the well, but the cost of 1/2" or thicker plexi is quite expensive.

Hey man, thanx for the info. I'm using your box cuz its the only one that I have saved pictures of, and it is the one that I have printed pictures of to show everybody the box I want to build. It's a nice box man, and I am using your plans you posted as well.
