What is the cleanest way to exit a sub box with out using a terminal because you will be able to see inside of the box when i'm done... I'd like to exit the box the cleanest non visiable way possible... any ideas? Home made binding posts?

I used two Machine head Bolts....Made two holes in my box....On the outside I tightened a nut onto the bolt...Then put my connector on then put another Nut on to secure it....The Machine head bolt looks pretty cool inside the box...

If you wanted to get really slick with it cut the heads off some more machine head bolts and Glue them to the inside of the box to make it look as if you have bolted the whole thing together...

technicly the cleanest way to do this is gonna be to invert the subwoofer but I am sure thats not the answer you were looking for. t would help to know a little bit about the box and what its made out of, that way I can mabye try to make a more useful suggestion:)

NOTE: A bolt isnt a good conductor for electrical signals to pass through. I personally wouldnt suggest that method.

Is it possible that you can use a nice binding terminal cup.. and have it mounted where the front of the terminal cup is actually inside the box?

Ive done this on a couple of the custom boxes Ive done with plexi, but depends on application, because you dont want the rear of the terminal cup being shown off either.
