Well I had 2 Infinity 6 (1/2)" speakers that have been sitting in the closet (because I have better ones in the Tib) for awhile now and decided to put them to good use by hooking them up in my room.

I've never built a speaker box in my life, but decided to go ahead and try building one for each...

I think it came out quite well. Of course, right now they're not finished, I just put them together to try them out. They sound AWESOME. Much better than I expected. I'll be painting them later this weekend and finding the covers that go over the speakers...







What do ya'll think?

I like it, but I think it needs carpet or paint.

Yep, like I said, I shall be putting on the covers and painting it this weekend. I haven't decided on a color though... Black probably. I thought maybe carpet but I think that would look funny since its not gonna be anywhere near other carpet like in a car...

Well I finished these on Sunday and I had a few pics on the camera... I slapped on the covers that came with the newer Infinity's that are in the Tib, and after some primer, more sanding, and paint, here's how they came out...





Not the best in the world, but the covers helped. Even though they aren't an exact fit, at least they're matching Brands...
