Nope, not retarded, there isn't one yet, I still have to drill it in.

I will get it up and running ASAP, I don't even have my amps yet. I work at Best Buy as an installer, and I will hook it up to our test bench, it has a 325.1 Rockford Amp. This is what I do for all my new systems, I work, while my subs get broken in.

I will get new pics up as soon as everything is in the car.

Thanks for all the compliments, I think it it turned out pretty nice, too.

How many layers of glass did you use?

I was planning on doing the straight sides, top, and bottom in MDF, then glassing the curves to seal the box. After seeing your box though, I am debating about taking your route and only using MDF as the top.

Golden86

apperantly not enough. I tested out the subs in the box today, and the bottom of the eclosure is flexing like CRAZY. I did 4 layers, and all the sides are rock solid, but the bottom needs some more bracing.

it's too flat - lay down1/4" - 3/8" rope into the floor and put fiberglass over it so the glass has waves in it - the waves will cause A LOT more strength!!!!!

I was thinking about that last night, but using strips of wood. But I cant, I already painted it with the sound deadening paint, and that stuff is NOT comming off.

What I did was made a little bridge from the top of the box to the bottom of the box with a 2x4, and screwed it together. It is A LOT more ridged now, but if this still doesn't work, im just going to bolt it to the trunk floor, that should do it.

glass over the deadening material from the inside of the box...

Golden86

I don't think the glass will stick to it.

Call eD and ask... I'm thinking it probably will but call and ask Chris or Alex... or Ben or Courtney... or whoever answers the phone...

the rope trick worked like a charm, I will have to remember that in the future, thanks! The box is as solid as a rock now.

Here are a few pics of it in the car, a VERY tight fit. It fits under the stock cover just fine, but wen it plays it hits it, so I am going to have to build a false floor, no problem.

Don't mind the random piece of wire, just there for test purposes..

WOW, that is such baller, make me one lol.

damn son, that's a sick setup

Alright now how much mass market them. Sweet setup. You might just get me to switch to ED.

Looks good.

I have it all hooked up, and WOW these subs can hit. I wasn't expecting much, something around the lines of my old Image dynamics 8" ID8v4, but these blow that away in output, and are just as accurate as the 8". I am pushing the two ED subs with an Alpine MRP-M650 amp that is supplying about 600 RMS to the pair at 2ohms.

If you are looking for a sub that will rattle your brains out, this is NOT it. It is a very clean and natural sounding sub with plenty of kick to it. I would recomend this sub to anybody who listens to rock, techno, and the occasional hip hop. It is a very snappy sub, and reaches surprisingly low for the size of box thats its in.

Overall I am VERY happy with this setup.

looks great! Ok, i gotta ask, did you ever hear the stock bazooka sub? If so, how much better does this setup sound? Then, do you think it would still sound better if you only had one sq10? I'm looking into getting one sq10 and the box that ed sells

thanks

nebster

its better dmyers. trust me. its cheaper than the bazooka and its better quality.

1 sq10 is enough for 130 or so db. stock one would hit like 115

Golden86

no, sorry I have never head the stock sub, but I can make a good bet that the sq10 will rape it in output and accuracy
