thats a good lookin build man ...i subscribed a while back & ur videos helped me with the build on my 98 formula ...& on that note, still lookin to add a sub to my system, so do u happen to have a blueprint for a small (10"?) sub box for the little triangle shaped nook in the back of a 98-02 camaro/firebird? ive seen em before, & crutchfield used to sell em, but apparently they dont make em anymore, so i was considering making one? thanx

Got a tip to maybe make things a little easier, a small sprinkling of table salt on the glue after you spread it, great reduces the boards wanting to slip back and forth as you clamp or tack it together.

I was about to ask about a few of your tools when I expanded the info and found that you had everything listed with links. I really appreciate that level of detail when you and others put that much into your videos. Not only the quality video, but the quality info to go with it. Thanks!

Outstanding as always. You have reinvigorated my old passion for car audio!

Mark, any video you put out will help anyone who is interested in car audio fabrication and even those who aren’t. Those who watch want to see your how to’s. Your instructions are clear and if the need help, you will answer their questions. The half million mark is only a heartbeat away!

So glad you added demo's to your box builds!

Hi Mark ... I'm from Brazil and I really admire your work .... very clean and with good aesthetics ... unfortunately we didn't find professionals of your level here in Brazil .... Congratulations on your excellent work !!!

Wow that’s awesome you make it look so easy to make. If I would do one it wouldn’t come out like the one you just did. I respect your work.

You absolutely do an amazing job man. The enclosure looks great. You pay a lot of attention to detail. I like it a lot. Can't say enough of how good of a craftsman you are!

that said ur better off just buying a 200 dollar premade box.. since getting all the stuff together and making it will cost about 3 times as much.. unless ur already making tonns of them.

After so many projects you have become a master, and it is great to see your beautiful works of art.

Building my first sub box. Been doing pro AV for 20 years. Just having fun with some car audio now.

You make wrapping that box look super easy. Great video and its great that you share your knowledge with the world.

That box came out really nice, looking forward to the next video in the series.

I have almost the same sub and amp setup with a ported box. I’ve had subs before, but it just sounds so clean unlike my other subs. It sounds good with all types of music! If you’re thinking about getting a setup like this, I would definitely recommend it!

Just recently found your stuff appearing on my recommendations and I love your work... Definately going to be sticking around to learn some more techniques for sound system installs etc... I think you explain and show your talents really well... keep up the great work.

Im going to build a box like this for a high output subwoofer. Thanks for making it first so that i wont go wrong with building it. Love your channel. Very professional.

This peaks my interest. Ive been wanting to add a subwoofer to my work van.

This is the sickest entry level enclosure ever! Can’t wait for the next video because I’m digging the Anderson connectors.

JL Audio, classic car audio goodness!

Next level build. Thanks for all the details.

I love your take on basic enclosure design, next level when it comes to design. I'd love to see a competition style build out of you. Maybe hidden amp racks with actuators.. Your designs are always so clean.

Absolute master of your craft... Wicked job!!!

so clean! mad skills i like how you use simple affordable tools and give great detail throughout your videos. Thank you!

Nice vid... would love to see a single cab behind the seat box build, something where airspace is a challenge

I'm not particularly interested in building car sub-woofers, but I have watched this video right through the end because what you're doing here is ART! No doubt that proper tools are needed to complete this great job, but it needs much patience and this sense of perfection to accomplish this! Great work! Maybe if you wood like to do a video regarding DiY floorstander enclosures for home ... this will be interesting to watch, and perhaps, trying to do it myself! Or, because the name of this channel is Car audio fabrication, I would like to know how to built a complete audio system for a car... I know that is really tricky!! Again, great work!!!

Beautiful box, very clean and professional...Great chanel for audio enthusiasts...!!!

Clean and Simple, looks great!

Nice work as always.

I def need those quick disconnects for my van. It would make taking out the system a whole lot easier!!

Love your videos mate, you explain everything so well! Fantastic work!

So many don't understand what goes into custom box building and why it can be so expensive and time consuming. This is a great video that I think more people should watch before they go to a shop and expect a custom box to be done in an hour and a half.

Holy cow that was a lot of good information. Thank you.

Your work is amazing !

this build of the car audio speaker box bring tear to my eye very nice.

Man, if I had access to videos like this back in 2000, I would have stayed in the audio industry.

Hey i love your video, SUPER informational, i was designing a box trying to perfect the airflow but after watching.. I've realized i have bit of ALOT more then i can chew, i used to run that same JL sub but i now have the Alpine's SWR-1242D 12" and R-W12D4 ( Killer haha ) to soon be powered with the Audio DM2500a monoblock, (dual battery and isolator with capacitor), i was intending on making the port start at the back of it as it comes up and over the top via slim port, but after seeing your setup wrap around, I'm so lost in how to make something like that and have to perform to its peak (cubic inches inside the box i didn't think of optimizing its performance, something i didnt think of with all my sketches) i have a EK 99 Civic hatch (Almost type R Civic with type R subs 😜), i was wondering if you may have any advice on what i should really be doing and making for these subs to get my boot popping off its hinges 😂

Hello i've been watching some of your videos lately and it is very informative especially for beginners like me, but i'd like to see on how to install a template or layout for car trunk panel. Thank you so much.

I always enjoy watching you build works of art out of common materials that function beautifully! One question: isn't W0 considered entry level? I wouldn't think of W1 as entry level, considering the price is out of range for alot of people just starting out...

@CarAudioFabrication

I consider the W0 to be "budget". To me entry level means you are serious about getting into the hobby and willing to invest a little, but not looking to obtain the best high end gear.

Hi Mark! I would kill to be as skilled as you, but I'm working on it! I don't know if this has been answered before, but I noticed you don't use terminal cups on your boxes. I saw you use some sort of "grommet" port for the speaker wire to exit the box. What is that peice exactly, and would it work for a sealed box application as well? Thanks for this and all the knowledge you have shared over the years!

Dude I've been binge watching your videos and I LOVE your work! I have a question you might be able to answer. I want to make a stereo for my shop. You made yours with a head unit. I want to make one with component speakers and an internal board just for Bluetooth. I found everything I need but I'd like to be able to hook up an outboard sub like a JL in it's own box. With 2 tweeters, 2 mids and an outboard sub I'd want a 4 channel amp right?

I love the one day builds.

help pls. i want to add subwoofer on my nissan frontier LE but i have limited space. can you give me recommendations on what is the best thing to do. what size of subwoofer, where to put it, etc.. thanks in advance

You asked if to mount the power amp to the box well it all depends on the vehicle. Can the amp be tucked away and just have the cable to the speaker. How about a quick latch or tie down for the speaker box to make sure it secured to the floor of the vehicle. Cheers

I'm that next video, could you talk about mounting the amp to the box and if you believe the vibrations will affect amp lifespan. I personally keep my amp mounted separately for this reason. Not to mention in many cars you can hide the amp very well and just use connectors like the speaktron to allow easy box removal. I just don't see or understand the need for amp removal.
