My cleaner decided to vacuum under my subs, I couldn't stop him because he's deaf. The dude broke my speaker spikes. The long screws ripped the HDF & MFD out. Granted these (20"x30"x24") boxes are very heavy. Any body have a solution? I decided on bronze spikes over 2"x2" to raise the box for SIZE(limits chambering), strength, and low resonant bevior. I've got one of my 15"PR parked down there.
sorry your sub broke. Can you romove the extra mdf from the spikes (or use comercial ones and reinstall where the mdf is still solid? That'd probably be the easiest thing. this relies on the fact that the main enclosure is still solid though. If not, you might be doing some wood work...
I'm missing 1.5" radius pieces from my box. The enclosure remains sealed.
I've got 2"x2" frame
w/
5/8" MDF over that
&
5/8" HDF over that.
The tricky part was the triangular 1/4" hard board trussing off a dead corner. In fact, that's why I used hard board. I had to bend it into place & filled the empty tetrahedral chamber with that aerosol poly-something-or-other insolation for rigid support. A tank can park on this thing.
I was considering mounting a birch / oak traingular boards on the bottom & screwing the legs to it, but am open to better suggestions.
I just bought some 6" rubber wheeled unswivelable rigid steel casters. The four lags are mounted directly to the boxes frame. The stiff rubber resists rolling & precludes rattling upon its axle. Of course w/ a couple hundred pounds of box, it would be difficult anyways but why take chances? Thanks anyway.
