Just picked it up and would like to make a ported box for it, Its the carbon fibre woven cone.
Anyone know the specs for this thing?

You mean Orion H2 I assume...

Specs are at http://www.orioncaraudio.com

And I think it's spun aluminum... Definately a cool looking cone in these things.

Hell even I don't have specs for a "HZ" driver from Orion.
The drivers that had woven carbon fiber cones were the SXTR which were later rebadged the NT line and these were very nice sounding units. The HZ model must have been prior to that I guess.

5.51 cuft box?! no man. that is just a messurement of one of the subs properties. i forget the exact wording but it essentialy means: the volume of air that has the same compliance(abilitity to move) as the drivers suspention. if you need that broken down more just pm me, not that you care about these specs.
