My new box and custom grille
This one is similar to my old one and alot cleaner.
I just bought this smaller lighter square box and i thought id add a custom touch to it.
Here is the box before:
And here it is after with two aluminum rods
What do you think?
Im thinking of adding two more smaller rods.

Rep Power: 0 i'd also recomend chopping a bit of the distance out of the guards... the part that determines how far your grill is away from your sub. unless you have a high excursion sub, i'd go a bit shorter. it'll look tight if you chop

well, the truly non-creative way is to go out and buy some speaker grills. Got mine from Radio Shack on sale for $4.50 each. They look pretty dumb, but hey, I'll bet they protect the subs a lot better than any cool-looking setup.

Not THAT slanted, but you get my drift. That would look sweet.
