has anyone built one of these yet? if so how do you design one? i have been doing some searching and havent found out how you design one. id like to make one for an RE re8 for home audio use. i can sure make a fiberglass box like nobodys business but trying to figure this out makes me feel stupid.

I will look for some links when I get home...
You either tune it for 1/4 or 1/2 wave usually...

TLs do sound lovely :) Far better than sealed and ported IMO, I've been wanting to try the SEAS Thor DIY kit

I've built a TL enclosure. I did it on paper for the calculations though.. this was before there was really any good software for that sort of thing.

I sure don't. I still do that kinda stuff on paper. I'm old.
the software would be fun though. I could nose around and see what's out there for advanced enclosure design.
