I really dont want to waste trunk space facing my sub enclosure towards a corner... so I thought about using a loading board technique. Have any of you ever tried this? Whats the best way to do it? I found the following picture and it got me thinking... I know the plexi in the pic is thin and probably used just for looks, but if I were to use thick plexiglass like 3/4", could it be used as a loading board?? I think itd make for a more unique build if that idea is plausible... not to mention double as a bad@ss grill ha. Any audio guru insight to this concept would be great!! Thanks |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 2546 Registered: May-07 | I really didn't think about it that much, as if it was for cancellation by any means they wouldn't have angled the subs in different directions lol. I guess I did say "only" in my post. I should have also. |
