I had this issue with an 8.5" one once. Anything below 45hz made it flex and sounded shitty
Actually it's only 12" even. I plan to put a layer of deadener on the inside for weight and to reduce friction, and a couple layers of mat on the outside. My neighbor has a whole roll of fiberglass. Like I said, it'll be solid.

I know, I'm not too worried. It will be, what it'll be... lol

I'll finish up the box/port tomorrow. Had to go buy some more brushes.

i see it's not very tall.

i still thnk you'd see more of a gain making the box as narrow as possible vs. making it as shallow as possible.

Wow. That is one serious enclosure. Why do you have 45 degree angles in your enclosure?
