you know.... considering you're all sq and show quality and such... why not go with a transistor switch instead of a bosch relay? More reliable than mechanical relays. Just a thought.

It's not going to look like this when you're done is it?

Just kidding, looks like quite the project though.

After that enclosure goes in, I'll be taking the long arduous steps of making panels, finishing the pillars and pods, and making the wiring all pretty. That will probably take a month. After that it's seat time. I can't wait to get this thing under the Auto EQ and Auto TA functions. I've got some massive glare in some upper frequencies. It's enough to make you cringe...even as off axis as I have those tweeters. Again, EQing and perhaps a dash mat will help that.

I can't imagine what these L1 Pro SEs would do on axis. I'd say just under the level of horn's abilities to make your ears bleed. There's just NO need for me to play them on axis, they've got GREAT sparkle at 45 degrees.

I've got a busy week. Testing for Yamhill County, interviews...
Good luck with the testing/interview process, I start next Tuesday.
I'm not surprised to hear you decided to go sealed, the tightness offered by sealing a midbass is awesome. I think there really are only two reasons why somebody shouldn't seal up a midbass...
1) The driver can't play the low stuff with much authority and needs the help of an IB enclosure
2) To make a sealed enclosure is just too much work in the given space/install.

You should also gain a bit of efficiency I'd think by going sealed, tho you will also get a slightly quicker rolloff (which doesn't matter cause you have a sub).
