Back in June I reached out to LTD02 for his help and knowledge in designing new enclosures for my SId4’s. They have been in Marty cubes since 2014. In my old livingroom they were fine as I had plenty of space to put them. Now moving forward to our new house and dedicated theater build. My new room was smaller than I wished but that’s ok. So in order to fit in a AT screen, false wall, and stage I had limited depth behind my screen wall, 19”. So I knew the cubes would not fit so time to rebuild. So that is where LTD02 comes in to help as always, plus many other fellow AVSers. That’s what makes this community so great.
So the maximum size I gave him was 24” W x 16”-18” D x 76 H. But let him know I would prefer as shallow as possible with my limited space. He came back with 22”W x 14”D x 75”H, perfect.
They are 8.5 cf and 17hz tune.
Seeing my theater is almost to the screen wall I better start the new enclosures build. So made up a cut list and off to Home Depot I go. I had them make a 2 cut per sheet so I can get the wood home and manage in the table saw. Here is the wood after getting it home.
So after running the boards thru the table saw and using my crosscut jig we have all the boards ready to assemble.
Does not look like much but there is 4 big panels there too.
Cut sheets and plans ready to go.
Got both enclosure shells built and that’s enough for now.
How they sit now in garage, no the port rails are not in yet, just sitting there.
