Guest Nismofreak Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 You can do vinyl and have raised lettering or whatever in it, here are a few pics of my box as for an idea: what did you use to raise it?1/4 inch mdf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tub Asko Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 whats your box Specs, im a fan of Fleckstone but carpet is always nice as well. only thing i don't like about vinyl is the price, but it does look a lot cleaner than carpet (and it's cheaper than leather).

Tub Asko Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 see for me Vinyl is a nice thing, but im changing stuff to much i cant afford to Vinyl everythign i have in there yea that is true, the vinyl cost double the price of the box itself to get done on mine. Also my box looks a bit goofy cause that top plate on the box. I was in a wreck and the 6x9 box's screws snapped and it slid across the top of the box scratching it to shit. So instead of revinyling the whole box I just got some 3/4" mdf and made a "beauty plate" coloring is a bit off but yea. That is a risk of vinyl. It's not easy to fix/replace.

Tub Asko Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I've done simlar vynil on mydoor pods.... is it really thin? or how do you do the raised letters!??? cause i would definitly do that! where do u buy it at? I got the local shop to do that, I could ask them if you'd like. But yea large flat surfaces of vinyl are pretty gay. Deff an option of raised lettering, pictures whatever.

KickerAudio21 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Today I finished up the main part of the box. We also did a thing to flush in the amps , but I ran out of carpet (best buy charcoal) and didn't wanna pay $11.99 for another when my roomate can get me employee discount on them when i get home. So i'll finish the amp rack thing and the speaker pods when i go home to mankato later this week. I FINIALLY FIXED THE ALT WHINE!!!!! grounding the outer coaxial of the RCA to the cage of my deck did it!!! thanks amatt or whoever told me to do that! I've had my amazing infinity kappa comps for 6 months now and never heard a perfect sound till now!!! Murphy's law here --- damn staples were too long and ruined my perfect port, oh well, i did my best to fix it, but after an hour i gave up - you can hardly notice it now in real life, but in the pictures it still looks bad ------------------------------------------------- 1st place circuit city car/spl show (maplewood,MN) 2006 146.6 dB's with 2 12" L7 and 1606d brutus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KickerAudio21 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 oh yeah.... ---> i pretty much creamed myslef when i first heard intergalactic by beastie boys..... Gain is only at half way (old setup had it almost 2/3), i'll let it break in for a few days, but it's already outwanging my L7 - and obviously i havn't taken it to it's limit yet at all. BAd news is i'm uncovering new rattles, but nothing major, ihave dynamat just about everywhere. ------------------------------------------------- 1st place circuit city car/spl show (maplewood,MN) 2006 146.6 dB's with 2 12" L7 and 1606d brutus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
