I think the fact that you 'had' an X100 says it all! 
Yeah, when i first started collecting i bought anything and everything. But the x100 wasn't my style.

Testing last weekend, it's about 4 hours and battery lasts (full throttle volume).

Cheers.
That looks sweet. Did you just glue on the center caps?

This portable monster is 32" Wide, 18" tall and 12" Deep...and weighs in just over 70LBS...it has a full sized Marine rechargeable battery, and a full size Car amplifier inside...it actually lasts a long time with this battery and is extremely loud and powerful...no box can come close to this beast 
I'm sure the Exos sounds good...just not compared to this custom made box!

You can play that behemoth in any place... ...but not really "carry" em' for thah specific place that you want...
A little bit "black", but I'm curious to see and hear an outdoors video.
My two wooden custom made ones, use modern 12v digital amps and the final weight it's about 12kilos (26Lb).
Some friends here built a BIIIGG custom one, they works on an amplifier now!

hardmen...you know the cars you hear with the big BASS in the trunk from blocks away...this box is that...just portable. My whole house shakes when i have it on...it can vibrate a glass of water in front of the woofers...the guy that designed this box worked in a custom car audio shop, so it has been professionally built...it's hard to listen to any of my vintage 80's boxes after listening to this one...they all sound horrible now in comparisonhardmen said:
Next fall i am going to customize this box, and add some "bling" so stay tuned

Gordie, Where the hell you been! That box is a MONSTER, I'd love to hear it rock the house.
I took my Aiwa E9 to our last mini meet, and although its not everyones cup of tea as far as looks go, and its "new", I dont think anyone was dissapointed when I gave em all a little demo of the Aiwa. There was that look of "WOAH" on everyone's faces. Like Howie said, the C100's power and loudness is 2nd to none, but the Aiwa E9's bass is also 2nd to none! Its impressive sound from a small package

You're right Steve, I'm a old school guy and have been reluctant (if not a vocal opponent) of the new stuff. But the guys at Aiwa delivered 100% on sound quality. Thankfully you brought some of that vintage love to the modern design.SLO said:Gordie, Where the hell you been! That box is a MONSTER, I'd love to hear it rock the house.
