Lord knows I've made my fair share of cardboard boxes....some didn't sound half bad either. Not good, but not half bad

Without the box, they sound awful, but just cut a hole in the packaging, add some aligator clips for connections, and you have some speakers, that actually sound like music. These are the first speakers I've done that with, so I'm hoping they sound a lot better in the box I'm making this weekend.
