New Carbon Fiber False Floor Subwoofer Setup

So about 3 days of labor and hanging out with the Doc, we've finally completed my new subwoofer setup!

Pics are just whatever for the time being, and yes my car is filthy. MDF and carbon fiber sawdust gets everywhere.

Enjoy!

At Night:

Junk In The Trunk:
- CDT Audio QES-1220 12" Subwoofer
- Alpine PDX-1.1000 Digital Power Amplifier
- AudioControl EPICENTER
- Memphis 17-1CBFMT 1 Farad Stiffening Capacitor w/Digital Monitor Top
- Monster Cable MicroXLN RCA Cables

The top of the enclosure is overlaid with a sheet of carbon fiber I had purchased for a different project that didn't fall through.

Dr.Isotope is the MAN!

-------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 7/30/08

Been getting a couple of PMs on what it looks like underneath the c/f.

Pics During Install.

When you said that this is all I could think of, and it should be a new icon for Doc Isotope:

It sounds amazing. We built the box specifically for the CDT subwoofer.
Subwoofer specs can be found here:

And it should sound even better once the sub is fully broken in.
