Fiberglass rear speaker enclosures

bigaudiofanat · 03-23-2012, 07:36 PM

So I thought I would share the steps to help people figure out how these were built. I got the idea from a fellow members picture album. I will say I am not the original builder of these as seen in the album. I am however trying to replicate them with the limited 1 picture I do have of them.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Made the rings

Pulled the carpet off the panels

Started finding the right angle to mout the rings.

Starting to epoxy the supports

So far

I really enjoy watching things like this being built. It's so very cool to see.

just a quick note, a big time saver is to use box carpet, you can resin it, a little bondo to smooth it out and your done, if all your putting in is a 6.5 it's more then enough.

Cool, thanks for posting, I always like seeing how stuff like this is made

bigaudiofanat · 04-01-2012, 02:47 PM
