i think chipboard is actualy a little lighter and cheaper than mdf, though not realy the best matirial for box building but as the man says budget build, whilst im not the best person to ask about sound quality i do like a budget build, usualy it means someones doing it for the music
 even if they are possibly not going about it the best way. |

Go for it! nice lookin build too!
I agree chipboard is not the best material, but when you're doin it for the love I don't think that matters so much. |

thx i would build the boxez out of plywood or mdf .. 3x times the price of chipboard, not that much of a problem but the shops who sell mdf and plywood wount cut it. so i would not only pay a lot for the material but i would have to hire a special truck to transport it coz the pannels are 4/2.5 meters
 i am using RCF lf18n401 for the es18bph dunno what to chose for the top Edited by noobsound - 01 June 2008 at 12:59pm |

this is my mixer and my amps. the Tapco J2500 is pretty good i abused it a lot run it in 2 ohms/chanal and all u could imagine and never stoped running. The omnitronic.. it's $hit.
My desk sux.. but the thing is i am making money providing the sound for small partyes and stuff.. whereever i'm needed it really
 .I started this buisness/hobby only 2 years ago with only 2 speakers and a diy amp I plan to use the tapco for the tops in the future and buy a amp for the subs something cheap like a Phonic xp5000 or a proline 3000 + a behringer ultradrive sound procesor.
Another option will be using a Ecler dpa2000 + amic sound procesor, Mircea bartic the user from this forum uses ecler amps and never had any problems.
something obout the chipboard i think u sould know.. it's not an ordinary chipboard i use.. it's not that soft thing u could brake it with your arms or scratch it with your fingernail. I personaly can't brake a pice of this clipbord 30/8 cm only if i hit it with my knee Edited by noobsound - 01 June 2008 at 12:58pm |

one of the problems that can occur with chipboard i would think would be resonance inside the voids between the chips though i think their are different grades of board depending on the density of material used, but it does tend to be a bit hit and miss to find good stuff and similar to mdf doesn't take kindly to getting wet.

some pics taken today. i put one lair of paint on them so that they will be a litle bit protected from water.Tomorow i am going to carpet them.
HAd a quick test today.. i am popular among my neibours now and i will not walk alone at night coz neibours will kill me
2 es18bph coupled togeder sound good.Better than i anticipated compared to same drivers used in reflex boxez the es18bph are much much louder. Don't think they drop lower than 45 hz but for general use i think they sound great.
