[joeaudio26]

Lets put this idea to rest is it possible to build a enclosure. 100% plexi glass heard this idea before just would like to put it to rest..all info is welcome

Yes its possible. Not sure why youd do it tho.

I assume so people can see your sub could be wrong.Never built a plexi box but heard it's been done wouldnt pressure be a problem?

You wouldnt build the entire enclosure out of plexiglass, just one panel like the top.

Interesting concept...:)

Did you ever see the momo sub + box combos? They had a rounded back made out of a clear plastic (not sure what material was) but it showed off the subs structure inside the box. I always thought they were interesting but never really cared to have a box like that.

Years ago a friend of mine had a competition setup in his Izuzu lowrider pickup. He had 12, 12" Lanzar subs in the bed in an all plexiglass enclosure (whole bed) ported through to the cab. The materials to make the box was astronomical it was all 1" thick arcrylic from what I remember, just the back of the box (the part you see when you open the tailgate) was $350 and this was easily 13 years ago!

That was one HELL of a system! All Lanzar OptiDrive amps, Lanzar subs, Sony ES 8" Midbass in the doors and 6.5" ES Components, ES Head unit and a Phantom.

And so much dynamat that when the windows were up you would never know there was a system in the vehicle aside from the beads on the rearview mirror jumping like crazy :)

I saw a system like that with a pair of 8" subs in what appeared to be a plexiglass bandpass box. This was back in 1991 or so. It was in a Supra and it did get loud.
