well, i've got the box plans drawed up, except for the mounting depth and the porting. it's gonna take up my whole back section. i'm going with 35" from tub to tub so it'l be snug, and 40" front front to back so i'll have a little space to mount my amps. i already know it's going to take 2 sheets of 4x8 mdf for me to pull this off, so everyone pray for me.

well, if i had thought about getting the xx goliath and just use that one amp, but two zx2500.1's sounds better to me. one per voice coil. and theyre about 800 dollars where the xx goliath is aobut 550.
