Being a rainy weekend in NJ, I decided to tackle the task of making custom boxes for my Infinity Kappa Perfect VQ10s. I previously had a custom enclosure, but wanted more trunk space, so my father and I tackled the project of making custom boxes and placed them on either side of my trunk. I built them mainly out of MDF, with fiberglass as reinforcement. They sound SO nice, probably because of the condensed size of each box. Let me know what you think.

My New Custom Sub Enclosures!

 

My stereo is getting installed Friday and Saturday.

My friend is an installer at a local stereo shop. He will be installing
-Mb Quart QSD for the front
-Kicker Solo-baric S10L7 (square sub)
-Custom fiberglass box for sub
-amp rack for 2 Phoenix Gold amps

I may do the rear speakers with some cheaper Mb Quarts depending on how hard it is to get to them. It looks kinda difficult. I told him if it is not going to be that hard that I will buy some and he can put them in!

Can't wait. I have been waiting for 8 months now!

I will post pics of the finished product.

 

you are officially a blatent thread hijacker!!!

haha....seems like a pretty nice system you're gonna get installed..put up some pics when its all done

 

Niiiice!! Hey Gunit do you have any pics of the boxes before you put them in the trunk...I have 2 10" rockfords in a box sitting in the middle of my trunk and they're taking up too much room...How about we help one another ;o) If you like my navi install maybe we can share info

 

Yeah MyGunit, do you have any pre-install pics? I am having a hell of a time getting my setup done. I am going to put 10 JL 10w3v2's in my car.

Thanks.

 

Looks nice! Congrats

 

No, unfortunately i dont. I didn't have my camera around when we started. But what it basically involved is cardboard cutouts of all the pieces first...transferred them to MDF....(a table saw comes in handy)....finish nails...fiberglassed the joints just for reinforcement purposes...sanded and carpeted

Easier said than done...i know

thanks for the compliments guys

 

hrmm wouldnt the sound cancel each other out since they're firing directly towards one another?

 

The subs are ever so slightly forward. Regardless, they hit harder and crisper now then with the previous box I had them in, in which both of them faced the back of the car. I've heard that reasoning, about firing into one another and the sound canceling, but from this personal experience, either that slight 5 degree angle each is the reason, or that is all just a bunch of bull.
