Ok... got a little bit of an aesthetics problem here.
My Tahoe (The Power Plant) is getting a bit of a redesign and I had some questions on how to implement some of it...
Right now here are the specs:
Pioneer ACH-P4200DVD headunit
Behringer DCX2496 processor
ID HLCDs
CDT ES-06+ midbass
TC Sounds TC9 12" subs x2 in ported 3-3.5^3
Phoenix Gold Xenon 200.4 (bridged on HLCDs)
Phoenix Gold Xenon 200.4 (bridged on midbass)
Sundown 3500d (subs)
So, I'm gonna swap out the CDTs for my Anarchys again, I think, but that's not the thing.
TC9s are going to be moved eventually to my 370Z, along with the 3500d.
New setup:
Zapco Z8 processor
Zapco ZX-6.5kd amplifier
JBL W15GTi mkII (x3)
I'm gonna be removing the 3rd row seating for the new subs. Gonna be a big box, obviously. But I don't want to just do a boring old 3-in-a-line slot-ported box. I wanna do something different. Not to mention, two of my JBLs are silver dustcap, and one is black dustcap. I know it's not a big deal, but it's aesthetics. So I want to try to figure out a way to mount one of them inverted, but these suckers are deep. I think 10" deep. So I was thinking of a box with the center sub inverted, but sort of... I dunno, countersunk. Like the face would have to be compound in a way that the center of the shelf is lower than the outside. Of course, firberglass would be the best way to do this, but I'm afraid building a huge box like that out of fiberglass may be beyond my capability. Probably looking at 8-10 cubes, but I'm going to have to play with all that and decide.
Any ideas for hiding the dustcap on one of these subs?
Here's what I'm talking about, for reference:
