I purchased a boston g5 sub and it is just to big to fit into any prefabbed box so I decided to make my own. Its not finished yet obviosly but I will keep updating. I have changed the amp tray a bit because I think what I had will look bad, I basically just added in a 1/4" piece of plywood to the front of it to square it up a bit. I think this will make it look better as well as making finished easier. I have gone through hell with this the amp due to low clearance under the seat but finally got it to work where the seat will just touch the top the back side.

 

Huh, thought someone would be interested. Well I will take pictures tomorrow and update anyway.

 

Did you post this in this section? Cuz I havent seen it till now.....Good tape work!!!! Did ya use Pam? Looks good so far.

P.S. Sweet Talon

 

Yea, I posted in here. I guess it was down a little ways. I assume your talking about the paintball gun, its my sons...he grandpa got it for him for his 6th birthday. He doesnt play with it much.

 

Ya...but I was being sarcastic

 

What all are you putting in?
The G5 is a sweet sub.. Iv put upto 1000RMS on one..
You will need some sort of grille for it you didnt say anything about one but Im sure you'v looked into it..
Keep me posted

I love it, I took today and yesterday off hoping to have some time to work on this thing and have only donea layer of glass and put some chopped strands (or whatever they call it) in the inside to beef up the joint where the top and bottom meet.. I dont need a grill for it, it touches the bottom of the seat but its just hangning fabric for probably 3 inches or so. I am only putting 500w rms to it, its only rated at 450 so this should suffice. Not saying it cant handle more, just that I think I am feeding sufficient power.

 

Oh yeah 500 is plenty..
We tend to do the G^12 With The GTR12 (Passive Radiator)
With a 1000W they last about 8mo but they have a 2year warranty

Please Keep us posted
Thanks Troy

 

Aside from some internal beefing up the outside is done as far as glassing goes. I am very happy with how it is turning out. I need to smooth out the front contour where it meets the carpet and will bondo some trouble spots now to prevent too much trouble later. I plan on milkshaking it in a few days (resin/bondo mix). Here is a pic after some sanding tonight.

 

Stillgot lots of sanding to do. Keep us updated!!
