I've been reading around about enclosure box's and I've heard that for sound quality, they are just as important as the woofers. Just wondering if thats true, and if so, whats a good enclosure box to get that will make my quality of sounds louder/better Thanks |

I'd recommend going with a ported box for the P3s. |

Usually you're looking at 50-200 bucks, or higher as the design gets more complex or larger. 50-150 is a good ballpark though for a ported box for one or two subs. there is a thread in the subwoofer section for a guy offering to build sub enclosures for people for payment. He's a board regular, and a cabinetry/carpentry guy. Find that thread and email him. |
