has anyone attempted to make or cover a speaker box with carbon fiber? if so would there a website or place where i can find out how to do so? Is it hard to do or work with? Any info i would receive would be a great help.......thanx....

 

i have no clue but DAMN that sounds like a badass idea i wanted to do alot of CF on my car and you just gave me a badass idea now the only thing can someone do it.

 

I have the SPFR box made in carbon fiber last August and since they switched over to injected molded plastic I have not seen one since with exception to Omar from San Fernando Valley and another one that went to an owner in SoCal.

 

it doesn't seem like an obviously good material to make a box out of... but hey, go for it

 

not to necessarily make it out of carbon fiber....but to cover it...thanks for the input guys i appreciate it

There are actually quite a few installs that are wrapped in carbon fiber...

here are a few examples:

 

Wow! thanks for the pics i really like the last one, looks like an si interior. Also i really like the install on your xb(DenZinz) looks toight, toight like a tiger ...are you the installer or an installer?

 

Yes the last two pics are of the Polk Audio Civic SI...Thanks for the compliment on the xB. I am not the installer of those cars pictured, but I am a retired installer. I installed for 10 years but came out of retirment to build the xB. Chris McSweyn (builder of many Eclipse, Boston Acoustic, and Pioneer demo cars) and myself built the xB.

 

ive always wanted to be an installer but location and demand is always a factor. i have a simple system installed and am going to be re-doing it myself. right now i have a single 15" sub in a sealed box w/ about 1.5 cu ft which isnt much but was unable to start on my permanent system at the time. any advice towards the building of my system would be very helpful and would be some great knowledge to gain.

 

I would plan everything before you start building. Are you going to paint it or wrap it? Are you going to make a beauty cover? Plan out how you are going to run your wires. Dont rush it, pay attention to the manufacture specs, and have fun!
