As a 15yr old id have had bright colours and neons but as a grown man i prefer a factory oem look i i was impressed with this myself. I learned a lot so my next will be even better

Awesome build. I will be coming back a lot when I build mine. 2009 Ford Escape. Perfect space for it.

My older cousin had two of these subs installed in his accord with a 1000 watt amp ,I believe it was a kenwood & that shit would thump like crazy ! for a sealed enclosure I was amazed .

my buddy had 2 of the silver or grey color ones and he had them on a 1400 watt amp and they also pounded the shit out of his car, at first he had them on a 600 watt amp( first time stereo owner) and thought the subs were crap, he looked at a whole new set up and someone suggested trying a bigger amp first, i swear man just with the new amp it actually sounded like he got all new gear, just a complete difference

Hi! Thanks for the nice video on your building! Now I got some good tips on how I can fit in my two MDS FR12W 1200W in my small Opel Agila B! Would be fun to see more of these kind of buildings. // MrCrowln from Sweden

Nice video. I use spandex, resin and then reinforce with glass mat on the backside. Much easier to work with than wool though

If that's your first build, pretty good work. You should have glued the ring supports, though. After the resin dried over the wrap, you could have removed them. The glass and wrap is plenty strong enough to hold the speaker. Unless you accounted for it, those supports take up sound volume.

10:17 If that was my box, I would have rounded off the top outer edge of the wood ring, so when the fleece fabric was stretched, it would of had a nicer/smoother transition (no sharp looking edge around the sub). Rounding the top edge also makes it easier to pull the top final layer of fabric smooth (less ripples/bunching up). Anyway, your finished enclosure looks good.

Great job.

using a router to cut your rings will be faster and more precise without the need to sand. Also, use mdf and not particle board.

Awesome build but you should have installed mounting hardware inside the sub to attach to the car.

Fantastic video. You inspired me.

The way I measure air space inside an enclosure like this is to first take a cardboard box and measure out your SQ FT needed for your subs. Draw a line all away around the box where the space you need is. I use wood pellets because there is less air space loss then peanuts and way cheaper to buy. Rice is the best. Fill the box with the pellets and when your mold is done fill it and mark the level and cut to your air space. Set your ring and finish the box, sealed or ported. I hate when they don't show or are guessing the air space needed. Give a sub near perfect air space and it will perform!

Doug S fack, I like this idea. I’m half Asian, so rice is easy to access and will be used later. Just put into a clean garbage bag for the measurement. Boom. I think when I get the time to do this, I will

Didn't need the info, but I loved the video and your technique. Your next one, try actual MDF board as it will give you denser material for your sub ring.... but not matter, that was damn good work.

Love the video but wanted to pass a trick on from an old man!Draw a circle with a framing square🤔After you find center just mark a straight line and put a screw down on the radius of each side.When you put the framing square down it will give you your mark at the 90 degrees and just put the pencil in the middle of it and rotate square keeping against screws!Perfect circle

Great build, I had a question about composite filling after wrapping it around the 9 minute mark of the video, did you go from the inside and filled it with composite and resin? Or was the wrap the only layer before adding carpet?

Have you got round to making one?

I have a ford fiesta and I don`t work with fiber glass and I needed the trunk space. So I Built a small, under seat, small sealed box with a 6" sub, it`s amazing how more effective is to have the sub inside the cabin, although I miss the punch of my 12". I really liked the idea of molding but my car don't have this kind of side panel in the trunk, just carpet. So I'd have to do the molding inside the car, maybe I'd give it a try some day. Btw, how many layers did u use? Great job!

I used 3-4 layers on this, i did this out of the car because i had that interior trim piece spare, usually i do them in the car. There quite easy you just need to make a start and keep going till you master each step :)

Great video, use a different colour text for the subtitles next time

I want one for my back left cubby in my trunk. Thinking a 10 inch or 8 inch. Just enough to hear it but help reduce high bass on my jbls I'm swapping out in place of Harman kardon blown speakers. Factory is like 320 watts. Just wanted to add 80-130 watts

Just a thought, fleece will work As well as the glass and its a lot friendlier, I don't Think you need Something as strong as glass. The felt and resin Will do the job. Thanks for the video.
