That should move some air, looks well built, do you have extra internal bracing for the sake of ridgity and low flex w/ so much cone movement attached to one face?

Thanks Gary. Got some on another site saying it will have port noise cuz the port doesn't fit a "magic ratio" of the box cuft to port area. But one says 1:8 max and one says 1:12. It falls in around 1:10.8. Gofigure...lol.
But he has what he wants and thats all that maters.

the only port "noise" will come from not routering the port ends.ports/slot vents can be any size/shape as long as its the right cubic inch and length are close/correct..... looks good to me i know you're a pro now,you've learned the most valuable thing; the customer is right.we can only guide/suggest our opinions.

You got that crap right, I've installed more junk in great enclosures, and been forced to under built projects because of budget issues, its good to hear occasionally someone knows quality costs, and just says "do it".

I'll find out what it sounds like tonight when I get to work. I'm gonna try to talk him into letting me build an amp rack/cover boards to hide his wires, they are a jumbled mess!

I just built a box for my friends boat. Let's just say, it wasn't quite as big. Made for one 12" sub. He's gonna carpet it so it matches the stuff on the boat.

ahh

Heard it last night NO port noise,box doesn't flex at all. He needs lots of dynamat! The rear gate has almost 1" of flex and the back glass is crazy. He had to turn the amp gains down,bass on eq down,and bass boost off on the amp. Blew 3 of the dust covers off too. He is well pleased.
It would sound better if the whole truck wasn't rattling. Bad news though.............he needs more mids/highs,they can't keep up
