This is my first DIY sub it was alot of work but I am very Impressed with this design I am still waiting on 4" flared port so I am running it sealed and it sounds great, I will take some more pics with amp and bottom, I thought I would post these because I could not find any pics of Shiva EBS when I was building this. Thanks to all who helped me out along the way. DIY SHIVA

Darren,

It looks great! Actually, I find that it looks like an SVS PB1-ISD/PB2-ISD "clone" on the outside. Very nice work.

Nothing like the smell of MDF in the morning. :)

Enjoy !!

This sub is Amazing I ran it for a few hours at normal volume last night then i got on it today and all the windows in my house where rattling, and I have the port sealed because I am waiting on ups for 4" flared port, I am guessing from what I have read that adding port it will play deeper and louder??

It would probably be easier if you made a 1" trim ring to mount the amp to in order to fur it away from the back of the enclosure.

Thanks, yes that was easier I brought it out 1.5 intalled port with plenty of clearance, another problem is the 6.75 they tell you to cut for port hole is to big for the flange PE sells 6.25 would of worked better.

For the tempest plans it does call for a 6.25" hole for the 4" flared ports. But I wouldn't be surprised if there was a typo, as there is one in the tempest plans where it says 3" flared ports in the description and 4" on the technical drawing for the SBB4 box - one of the reasons that I needed to modify my box volume.
