They look loverly mike! Wish i had thought of that when i built mine.
How much you leave for the grill is completely down to you. depends on the grill and what size foam you use, i used fairly small batterns so didnt need a huge resses. In reply to watchman, yes i would recommend bracing, makes it alot stronger. Going to be making another two of these in the next 6 months, gigs are getting more demanding. Just need to find the money now! Edited by Ryan94 - 23 May 2011 at 4:39pm |

Ah ok. In that case it might be worth trying a box folded grill with captive nuts (my old turbo tq310's used cage nuts) fixed to the inside of the returns. Grill would then be attached with csk bolts through the sides/top/bottom of the cab. Quite an elegant solution i think. I've been using Fane 18sb's in my sub18's and they really sound good. Would recommend them to anyone. Would like to hear pd186 loaded ones. |

have been looking at the Fane 18sb, seen at blue aran for £135, think will go for them.

never used a router before, what type of router bit did you use to cut hole. |

have built both subs now, router was a pleasure to use but i measured speaker hole 2mm to small and put top lids on 1mm to high, can mdf be sanded or should i just use an extra coat of paint to make it flush, did you round corners of.

edit- just realised its the length of the port which is important and not the distance of the baffle to the port
