Thanks for the complement. Since i haven't weighed the box i can only assume it's weight..I'd say its around 90 or so pounds without subs.

After reading all the hype and waiting all day to see those pics...it's alright. But, didn't really live up to my expectations. Looks pretty good though.

Looks great...how many hours did it take to complete?

And is that 1" MDF? Where'd you find it?

took about 5 or 6 hours since it was very cold here and i had to work on it a little bit each day because i go to school full time. Only the front baffle is 1" MDF, the rest is 3/4" MDF, the ports are 1/2" MDF...i get the 1" MDF from a friend who's family owns a construction company.

Quick question, how did you figure out the tuning frequency by making those slot ports? With regular round tube ports it's easier, but with slots, how do you calculate it?
