Hey .. I am not sleeping yet!

Jose, as sleepless mentioned, the enclosure needs to be "sealed" as required by the sub manual. Regarding the DSP, send me a note when you are ready to wire.

BTW, you have amazing kids ... I have a twin brother myself, but not identical.

Got it and will do. Thanks for the kind words! Hopefully I can contribute something useful once I start this project.

These are the ebay websites I ordered from:

'4 / 8 ga. AGU In-line waterproof Fuse Holder',
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...3AIT&viewitem=

'Hi/Low Impedance Adaptor RCA to line'
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...3AIT&viewitem=

'24k gold Ring terminals'
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...3AIT&viewitem=

The last 2 items (above) can be shipped together.

Radio Shack carries the blue T-line connectors:
http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2104093

Thanx for those added pointers, Carlgo! You also have a point about everything being 'squared'. It would make a difference because my cardboard constructed box is just hitting both of the lower corners of the (upper) subwoofer enclosure's cavity opening.

I'll go Home Depot to get the (2) 4x8 MDF sheets, (3/4" = USD $26.21, the 1/2" = $19.21), and Spatz screws....I don't have air :-|, so I'll have to settle for a powered down variable drill with a screw bit(?) or buy a power screw driver.

X5 Limo - question for you or audio specialists

I have Essams setup (sub, amp etc) and I used RCA Impedance adaptor from your eBay link to connect my Alpine amp (speaker wires) to BMW wiring/amp because I did not have original Alpine white connector for the speaker wiring.
Do you think this RCA adaptor will influence the quality of sound, should I just eliminate it, splice the wires and connect the RCA wires from Alpine directly to the BMW wires?
