[QUOTE="Toxxyc, post: 768249, member: 19314"] Heh, I'm completely new at this so anything is possible... :P I'll hold off on the bracing for now then. I want to design the enclosure as well as possible so that I can get "acceptable" quality from these budget drivers. Next run will be better/higher quality, but for now I think this will, like you said, be a good learning experience. The original goal of this whole endeavour has been from the start to figure out if this is all for me, so I think doing it "properly" will give the best indication. Next question: Shape of the enclosure. I've been reading up and it seems like a square enclosure isn't the best idea. I've been thinking of an upright trapezoid type shape, like many enclosures look like, but that opens up room for errors and issues for sure (angled cuts on the MDF and all that). Would it be horrible to just build a rectangular box with parallel sides all round? [/QUOTE]
