I bought my truck with the intention of removing the center console and replacing it with a box. I went with two tens for a while but got a little bored with that so I have since moved up, and I will put those pictures up later. https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v689/townzenm/DSC01831.jpg

It sounded pretty good. The only issue I had was that it was easy to overpower them and cause distortion at higher volumes. That is why I have since redone the entire set up.

Looks really nice. I see its ported. How did that turn out? Do you think that was the cause of the distortion?

The ported setup worked well but with ported enclosures it is easy to overpower your speakers and they will become undamped. Basically the speaker is unable to control the forward and back motion and it becomes over extended causing distortion.

Did you get exact volume measurements or did you just get close?

I did not get exact measurements but it was pretty close. I did some preliminary modeling in SolidWorks to determine the basic size of box I could put in the space I had.

Looks good. I like the curves. How did you finish the top of the amp rack? Is that just MDF painted black on top?
