    Who designed that? Slap them in the head. Second, what kind of fabrication are you looking for?

    I gotta be honest with you, man... that enclosure looks much too small for one 15" and four 10" subs.

    As for working with that box, you'd be better off starting from scratch. I hope you didn't pay good money for that. What type of subs (can't tell from the photo)?

    that doesnt look like 4 10s from that angle, it looks like a 15, 2 10s or 12s, and 2 8s

    Elo,

    I think that your 2 8's are some sort of vents and that the other 2 10's or 12's are on the backside

    It could look sort of cool, but it's certainly not built for the sound.

    What kind of subs are those?

    I'm thinkin' that that enclosure was meant for a passive radiator design with the single 15 being the active driver and 4 10's being the passive radiators. If that is the case, those ports shouldn't be there. Otherwise, unless that enclosure is compartmentalized, that's just not going to work out well at all.

    umm the top 15" is a rockwood 800w chrome sub...the two on the sides r sansui 10" d-bass

    i onli payed $100 for it so it wasnt that much of a waste...i was thinking about changing the wood to fibreglass and onli leaving the two airholes on the side...then buying four 10 inch kickers with a 15 inch competition kicker..the inside has spnge padding with plenty of room..its about 1.2 meters wide by 50 cm high

    keep posting comments..thanks =]
