S15_Silvia Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Forevrbumpn is building me an epic woofer, based on a Power HX2 motor. I specifically requested something that will be comfortable running in either a sealed or ported enclosure. I'm going to start it off in something sealed, and made from birch. My question is, would it make ANY appreciable difference to do something like fiberglass the inside and smooth it out? I'm definitely going to double baffle and brace the thing, but I wonder if anything else would enhance the enclosure in any way. Thanks! BTW...who wants a spy pic of said woofer?

TRTC360 Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) idk about the type of woofer you're using but kicker subs love polyfilled boxes, atleast the enclosures we've made with kicker subs made a night and day difference in the sound. edit: I would like a spy pic Edited August 7, 2011 by TRTC360 Quote '93 Firebird Formula V8 H/U- Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X395 Mids/Highs Amp- Hifonics ZXI80.4 Wiring-KNU RCA's, Speaker Wire, And Two Runs Of Trystar 1/0 G34 Red Top and a 180amp Ford Alternator www.youtube.com/TRTC360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S15_Silvia Posted August 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 I didn't even think about polyfill. Might have to give that stuff a shot. And, well...it does look sexy...

THEKINGsBACK Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Said pic? Quote he wouldnt be the first to say they did a 167 with a system like that (one that clearly DOESNT), but i have to say, he didnt beat me anywhere, ive never competed against the guy. If he thinks his does a 167, mine would probably put him in a coma. :hairtrick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcpballer64 Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Due that thing justice and put it a ported box. That thing Is sexy. but as far as the interior of a sealed box I doubt smoothing it would do anything. But polyfill would be interesting or maybe second skin?????
