did all that... it says ( value not set )

I made a few enclosures with both Lexan and Plexi the Lexan flexes/vibarates if used for large windows or panels and makes noise, it can not be bent either because it has a memory and wants to flex back , Plexi can be bent with heat and it will hold it's shape lexan scratches easily too

windows 8 sucks when I was working on my website I wanted to snap my laptop in half and drive over it
-
that's one of the reasons why those expensive Frugal Horns have a nice looking hardwood faceplate and everything behind is either Baltic Birch or MDF personally I hate working with MDF because of the dust but it's the most acoustically dead and the reason why I use it the most
-
I built a few enclosures out of real hardwood , measure 10 times and cut once because one bad cut can be expensive....LOL hardwood makes a nice looking enclosure but it has to be maintained like a piece of fine furniture .. oiled so it does not dry out

no mouse works fine , I can drag the highlighted text over to another page but when I release the mouse button it just vanishes never to be seen again....weird

after a 2nd look at the pic of your amp I noticed the bass boost does not have a variable frequency I bet it is a boost pre set in the 40-45hz area .... if this is turned up to high your sub will crap out on the higher frequencies before you ever get a chance to get enough power down lower I would turn it right down to start
-
I see your sub sonic filter is on a factory setting of 25hz..... with the slope your probably loosing all the punch below 30hz turn it off...that pretty much filters out all the low slows I would lower the LPF a bit...get all the voices and upper bass out of the way and concentrate the power on the lower stuff I would also lay the box on it's side and rear fire it see how that does
-
breaking in the table saw and getting back into the swing of things with the sub I am using and the design this build is like putting a front end loader into a mail box......... LOL

I did some Deer and Moose hunting with dad when I was younger and got a deer on my own back in 1989 , have not shot a gun since
-
LOL..... I got the TV out of my dads storage room , it's a heavy little thing
-
the only caution I would give is stay away from anything with acetone in it (some rubber cements) it will turn a foam surround into mush...a very trajic ending....LOL
-
even if you had limited power you should still have some low end I would definitely start with the box , sounds like it is tuned to high
-
personally I would use the White Surround Dampener , it dries clear and stretches with the surround silicone will work but it looks like ass , to stiff and it shrinks when it starts to dry out after time
-
Prosound White Surround Dampener works really well fixing those

I have an old school H & H Scott tube amp that my dad bought back in the 70's it is very warm sounding , fantastic sound quality for an integrated amp/preamp I even have the original H & H Scott 197B loud speakers that came with it ,had the woofers rebuilt a couple years ago
-
I think it turned out really good for something I drew up on the shop floor with sidewalk chalk.............. the amp rack will have to be worked on , the holes were drilled for the Soundstream amps
-
well the enclosure sounds spot on but the Soundstream REF 1.500 amp is almost useless at 3 ohm so I did some hunting around this morning traded my two REF 1.500 amps for a Crown BPX 2200.1 works perfectly but has some cosmetic damage , happy though I got enough power to launch that 10" thru the roof so it"s all good just waiting for the rain to break and I'll take a couple pics

I'm not going to waste any time to paint or carpet this one it's only temporary until I get my hands on a 2nd W10gti
