whats the local site? a sax group? or audio? Yeah il see if i can make it sunday 8pm, I wanna keep the weight down for this install so im having a single sub install with a box constructed of mainly fibreglass! 12" Pioneer 3kw eventually...
I have had fairly excessive stereos for years and I now have an ear condition called tinitis and its really annoying so im trying to keep it more sensible with the volumes! Still like to listen to other peoples though! been in alot of show/competition cars!

Hey liam, shame we didnt actually get to make any noise last night, wanted to hear it flat out! was the fibreglass box for the drivers or passengers side that you made?
I still have to start fibreglassing my new box, only started it yesterday though! EDIT: started the fibre glassing and its well on its way now! Liam how many layers did you apply to your old glass box? Im gonna see how strong 6 is first i think!

Many Thanks
Sam

The length of the batten is approx 4cms for the top block and 4 cms in length for the bottom block, just ben out to the car in the dark and measured taking into acct the 12mm thickness of the MDF collar! At this length the speaker slightly points upwards
