I've worked on a few different speaker projects in the past couple years. I've made a 15" sonosub and a pro sound / PA 18" one. I've made a pair of stereo speakers using the same concept of a sonosub. These are the ones I wanted to show you guys and get some feedback on them.
I didn't take many pictures of my new speakers. But hopefully it will be enough to give you guys a good description.

This is the woofer i'm using its an 8" AUDAX HP210G0

I'm using the VIFA D27TG-05 1" SILK DOME tweeters for this project.

These are the mounts for the woofer inside the sonotube. T-nuts are used to connect the blocks to the sonotube.
Photo 4:
As you can see it is a sonotube concept design, except the diameter is only 8 inches. The blocks on the inside are used to mount the woofer and using tee-nuts to mount the blocks.

A test fit for the tweeter enclosure, AKA 90 degree angle pvc connector.

The right angle after one of the connectors was cut off. I then cut a hole in the sonotube to insert the cut end of the pvc into. I then glued a brace on the inside of the sonotube to hold the pvc nice and tight. Here is what the brace looks like:

I had to round it at the top so it would fit snuggly against the top of the sonotube. The whole in the middle fits the pvc perfectly ...but I still applyed a bunch of adhesive, just to make sure the tweeter never moves. After the drying it was solid as a rock.
