I like the sound of a 12", so I'd probably do a single 12 as my system. Excellent job with the plexi. Makes me want to make my next box out of lexan... hmmm...


My original idea was to build the box out of 3/4", however the cost for materials alone would nearly have been double for what I paid for 1/2". And bcus this was a proto-type, I didnt want to spend too much on materials. I am VERY happy w/ the final outcome, but eventually I might upgrade and build a second box w/ similar dimensions, only using 3/4" or 1" material. I might look into eliminating the center space so I can increase the vol for larger subs.

The box does not interfer w/ the seats at all. I'm not sure exaclty what the volume is, but I bassically made the box as close to the owner's manual specifications as possible. The recomended vol is .65 cubes for my subs, with a sample dimension of 12.5" H, 19.5" W, 7.75" D. Unfortunetly due to the limited space and the design of my box, the max I was able to extend the dimension is 12"H, 20.5"W, 6"D.
