I did a little research on here a while back about stereos, sealed boxes are the best. search around for some boxex, try to find what air space the manufacturer of your sub recommends and then build a box with that airspace. if you can't find the exact manufacturer specs for air space try to find specs for a sub with the same wattage as yours.

Go to home depot and buy some wood, and some good wood glue and silicone, make sure its air tight.

I'm so glad I'm out of car stereo ----. I wasted so much money on that ----. I have a CD player with two speakers that play music. Good enough for me. :P

Is it the right board. Is it MDF, I think that is what it is called.
