I decided to make my own custom subwoofer enclosure to make some room in my trunk. Here's some pics of it's development and the finished product with the 10" sub. Problem now are some people I know wants me to make one for them.

 

looks good ... yet wierd at the same time. I would'nt do that but each its own. Also i noticed u put some sort of adhesive for the speaker to bond on around the ring of the enclosure. What if the speaker blows out ?? You will have to make a new enclosure !

 

^^^ That's not adhesive, that's bathroom silicone which turned like gel after it dries. I just put it around and waited to dry for seal before putting the subs. Hopefully that helps to make it airtight.

 

nice job on the enclosure!

 

it looks funny to me too, but an A for effort!

 

how does it sound? I 'm wanting to do something like that for mine but i'm skeptical about the sound quality of the fiberglass. Do they hold up well under a lot of pressure like a high powered 10 or 12?

 

Nice Fiberglassing !

but knowing that sub , must not sound too good with so little space.

 

^^I'll let you hear it if you happen to be around OC. It sounds deep and low enough for me but each person's taste is different.

 

since you are around OC....can you make me one? hahaha jk im too poor to make a decent proposal

 

no luck, i'm in fla. maybe you can make a vid and post it up. how long did it take for you to make? i'm actually trying to make a full trunk setup with an amp rack and 2 10's mounted in. I have the idea in my head I just don't know where to start. I figure I can use wood for most of it and fiberglass the sub enclosures into that.

 

I like it alot. looks pretty good , I wouldnt have made the terminals visible like that but the sub looks clean. is that sub any good ? I was looking into buying them but was unsure. good job bro !!!

 

call me old fashioned but, i think fiberglass should always be painted. carpet doesnt look right all wavy like that. still all im gonna have is a standard box, so urs is better in that aspect!
good work

 

Looks good, your fiberglassing skills are top notch.

 

looks good. i'm in the pasadena area... i'd like to see it in person and hear how it sounds.

 

hey i like it it looks good

 

It took me 4 days to finish the whole thing.

I made the terminals visible so I can easily disconnect it without taking off the rear panel.

I like it and it has punch and the price is affordable.

My original plan was to paint it but it's going to take a long time since the surface has to be super smooth if it's going to be painted. I can't live without my bass for another week so I decided to just carpet it. It only took a few hours to do plus I don't have to worry about it getting scratched.

 

05_scion_tc - You are more than welcome to see it and hear it if you are willing to drive to OC.

 

Cool subbox what did you use for a sub ring?
