from the looks of it that box is made out of particle board, not the best material, but should be fine for 1 small 12.

also, if materials were only 15, i HOPE you used liquid nails, i dont see any oozing out the edges though. if you didn't, take that box apart and liquid nail all of your joints, and spread it with your finger along the inside corners/edges, your box isn't even close to airtight if you didn't use any. it'll sound much better if you do this, and your box might not hold together if you dont.

bad thing about particle board is it expands when it gets wet, bad. and it doesn't hold screws to well

Thanks for the link!

@mike2002

You're wrong on four levels, here.
1.) Its MDF Board (2 boards @ 5/piece + $5 screws/caulk I already had)
2.) The interior is caulked
3.) Caulk is not a definitive factor in holding a box together
4.) I can stand on this box no problem, so its not even close to being weak.


My sub sounds great!
(dont dis my wood skillz :thumbsup: )
