Summer "Luke Box" Build

[cale]

Can't wait to see what you do for a touring, your stuff impresses me enough that I have no doubts the wait and costs are 100% worth it.

[StereoInstaller1]

Yeah, I wanna see that one too. If I can find time, my goal is to do something very much like this:

[cale]

Don't go and get too fancy on me. I don't mind if it doesn't have a faceplate like that with edges that 100% contour the vehicle. One of your regular e30 ones but turned around and sits between the rear towers is what I'm looking for.

[StereoInstaller1]

Having never seen that particular vehicle, I am kind of stepping out in saying that what you describe is my basic goal, but I still want a flawless fit!

The contoured stuff is damn sexy though, ain't it?

[cale]

I think what I'm trying to say is that I don't want it to look as though it's trying to be oem, anything else looks out of place in an 88 imo. It'll look purdy in my wagon

[StereoInstaller1]

cool...we are on the same page

[Miasma]

Hope one is still taking up space next week.

I still have 2 left AND I am gonna build 12 more just as soon as the custom ones are done.

Luke, I'll take one. I'll get back to you tomorrow whether I will need the 10" one or 12". I don't remember off the top of my head.

Cool, bud, keep me posted. The first batch of 5 goes out in the AM, since I was slow on friday. Still have 1 10" left, but the 12's aren't ready.

Yes, they are 1.5 cubic feet gross, tuned for 35Hz with 2 3" ports.

Typical woofer displacement and the 2 ports are generally about .25 cu.ft, so you get 1.25 net volume.

I tune a little higher than normal to compensate for the evil E30 suckout at 60 to 80Hz. It really helps the car sound "full" but still has tons of output at 25Hz on the 10", and the 12 plays MUCH lower than that.

thanks

[StereoInstaller1]

STILL have 1 left!

[AbsorbantNut]

So are they shipped yet or do you need to sell that last one 1st?

[StereoInstaller1]

A bunch went out yesterday, yours goes out tomorrow now that I can make a shipping label.

Guys, still have 1 left all packed and ready to ship, I can get it out same day!
