I was able to measure the 8 inchers and bummed to find out the Fs is actually 52, not 42, and didn't want to commit to buying panels, veneering etc for an F3 of 66Hz.
However, I just completed taking down the ratty old Target-On-Sale bookcases that housed all my shop stuff and had the pieces stacked by the door to go to the curb......5/8 by 11 1/2 particle board.....faux cherry veneer.....
So today I cut it up into box sides! However (there's always a however), I discovered just how cheap the construction was, each of the panels has longitudinal voids as wide as the particle board strips, 2 per panel! These boxes wil sing!
Recycling's a wonderful thing for the environment, tho', and the woofers are from India, so....soon I'll be listening to the Green Ghandis!
