  1. if you want carbon, the best thing to do, is use fiberglass, and put a 3M carbon fiber sticker over it lol.

    man if its box strength you need, you cant go wrong with good ole fiberglass and threaded rod. thread rod dosent take up too much space and ive seen boxes strong enough to be thrown at the ground and not take internal damage, or even move, thanks to threaded rod and fiberglass, plus, with fiberglass, all you need is some paint brushes and some time, threaded rod, nuts, washers, and a hack saw, carbon fiber on the other hand, a $50,000 vacuum heating rig, plus sheets of bare woven carbon fiber, not to mention the special clear coat to put on it.

  2. Just a quick question. Where did you get those thingymabobbers that hold the 90 degree angle on the corners for you? And what are they called?

    90' corner clamps, at harbor freight they're like $7 each, now that i own them, i wish i had gotten more exspensive ones somewhere else. they're good for small speaker eclosures, but when working with big enclosures and MDF, they dont really hold as good as i wish they did, plus once they are tight you destroy your fingers loosening them.

    OMG these would be godly.

    and for my box, why do you think its big? because it isnt a generic size like other people use, dont go by the tech specs from the manufacturers, always run the t/s specs through design software and see what it all comes out to.

  3. Why run the speakers off the h/u? They wont get a lot of power that way. Use another amp.

    each one of these can do a stable 300 watts of current, and for the price, buying 4-10 of them isnt that bad.

    or this

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817709019

    can do 250 watts stable, for $5 less. $0.10 per watt isnt bad at all.

    and lastly

  5. mite i ask y u have 2 fi x 12s in 6 cubes? cuz i have my 15 x in 2.6 cubes because of over powering and if your usings that 1500 i know your over powering

    overpowering is all in the gains bro.... and thats the specs needed to get it to play some half decent lows. a 4 cuft box tuned to 25 hz may have a f3 of 32 hz, wheres a 6 cuft box tuend to 25 may have a f3 of 27 hz, its all about the displacement man.

    and what makes you think im overpowering them? i could go to 7cuft and the subs would be fine, according to design software.

    bro, just because a person might have a 2kw amp dosent mean you need to have 2kw of output. i will put a 27 hz tone on the head unit, tune my gains to have about 1000w of output, and let er eat.

    OH, and btw, this is the OLD fi-x 12"s, not the new ones.

    one last thing, the fi x 15 calls for about 11 cubic feet at 19 hz to play anything in the 20 hz range. they're kinda shitty subs, better for home audio use. the sundown audio SA-15 is a FAR better sub.

    anyways, longreply is long.
