Somebody clap for me!!! This is my first post to the public. First, I would like to thank all the guys who answered my private messages. You Rock! Now, let's get down to business. I built my first ported box recently and impressed myself. I didn't know I could do it. But after doing it made me think; "Dude, how bout a rack for your amps?" So now I'm trying to do a simple build for my amps and maybe a second battery or cap... Waiting to see which would be more helpful for me... I welcome all advice... Thanks in advance.

Not really... Because the sub box I built is so big that unless I put it in front it won't be seen. I really want to do it for the neatness of it. I don't care about showing it off. Just trying to get a basic idea on how to build and what to look out for...

I'll throw in my 2 cents.....sub floor....route and fasten all wire underneath floor of rack. Then stub each wire through floor right where it terminates to equipment. Easy to do and looks ok.

This is what I do for FUN!
