Enclosure Design:
24×24 Formular panels
9×9 3/4 Ash plywood cube

Crossover Design:
added 2 in-line 250uf capacitors to the flat panels to limit some of the bass

Tips & Tricks:
Used Bullseye 123 primer to seal the panels. You have to brush this on as aerosols will melt the foam. The primer can be sanded. After this, you can paint them however you like.

Conclusion:
Very happy with the sounds, especially for as little room as it takes up (wall-mounted panels)

About the Designer:
