FC Bin Boxes

I finished the FC bin boxes, if anyone is interested. They hold one 10" sub, and are .5 cubic feet. I am selling them carpeted for $120 a piece, or $200/ pair, plus shipping.

I did the same thing and I would recomend making the bottom slanted to allow for more space. Wouldn't really be that hard. At least on mine it hit the fender well, and Im going to rebuiuld it slanted so it will be bigger. 0.5 cubic feet is pretty small, people would probably be more interested if it were bigger. Just my 2 cents.

Defintley interested, but would like to see how they look installed, do they just drop in, are they sealed inside the actual bin it self? Are they going to be carpeted?

Willing to put down a down payment if the finished product looks good?

Actually, I just saw it on the left, are they going to be carpeted, etc

Yes, they just drop in, and they are sealed. They will be carpeted, just let me know what color you want. I can take them down to $80.

just a recommendation...but, you don't generally want to have a sub mounted with a flat back wall. This helps reduce standing waves. You generally, want the backwave to hit some sort of slanted or irregular surface. Other than that...nice work.

I love the idea but again .5 cubic feet really isnt enough is there a way you can slant the bottoms slightly or anything? I am very interested though and would prob get a single for an infinity kapppa 10"

yeah except finding a sub that sounds decent in a box that small would be a little difficult.. not for audiophiles at all.. Not to flame, but having a box of that shape and size will make any good woofer sound shitty
