Very clean set up actually. I work part time in an audio shop and you should see some of the **** that my co-workers put out for $11 bucks an hour. You make them look like a pile of crap.

Aka: Great job.

I like the idea alot.. I think I just might copy you.. I have a pair of 10" Focal subs laying around. I think I'll make my subs fire towards the back though. Thanks for the pics and idea.
