erm, cant really remeber exact dimensions tbh and i aint gonna take it back out, the angle of the sub face is 60 degrees, 65 degrees at back, the wood the size of wood that subs are on are 40cm x 40 cm, it is a saxo boot tho and dependin on the size of the amp, that will adjust the size of front wood. 6x9's are to come shortly, just have to get stelth shelf built or it might be done professionally.
loo_goblin, what u mean?if it just a box, nothin really spec ial then, u gotta make it custom and different in some way.

well done mate, but dont spoil it with 6x9's they wont be any good and the sound pressure from your subs will fook them up. spend the cash on front components and another amp. It will sound much better

Im running a 5ch Kenwood PS650D. It runs in tri mode 2x 120wrms for the fronts and 1x 200wrms @ 2ohms for the two subs. The amp was 180 second hand the guy i got it off bought it for over 400. Have a look on talkaudio.co.uk, they know their shit.
the setup cost:
MB Quart DSC 216 Components - £130 inc delivery
2x Rockford Fosgate 4412 Subs - £100 B.O.G.O.F offer
Kenwood KAC-PS650D Amp - £180
Twin Sub box - £30
Wiring - £30
Ivanhoe sound deadening (not in yet) - £80 for 8 rolls
Im going to be putting in a false floor for the amp to go under, just got all the stuff to make the relay to switch fans on and off when the amp is on and off.

i bought it all piece by piece and waited for special offers, i had money every month to spend and just waited till the best deal came along. Its the best way to get quality kit if you aint got the cash on tap. An really worth it in the end.
