Your enclosure design and the simulation results look great on the computer screen, but things may still look a bit incomplete. If you are an OEM looking to go to market with a new system or a DIY kit, you will certainly want to go to the next level - empirical refinement.

That means having a real box that realizes your design - something you could touch and feel, screw some real drivers into, conduct some hard acoustic measurements on, compare with the LEAP design, and iterate the process to closure.

We can provide a complete, tested prototype of the enclosure we design. The purpose of the prototype is to further refine the results of a LEAP design exercise by fine-tuning the behavior of the system empirically. We construct the enclosure, make impedance as well as acoustic measurements, and analyze the comparison with the LEAP impedance and acoustic simulations, making refinements as we go in collaboration with you. Once the enclosure performs as desired, we document the details of the final enclosure, and its response. This can go a long way in helping your system or kit sell better!

You can have the enclosure materials shipped to you in dismantled form for reconstruction at your end.

Salient features of the prototype include:

• Construction using high-grade MDF, by default 19mm thick, but could be thicker if you need it to be
• All joints sealed internally using neutral-cure silicone sealant
• Driver openings accurately routed and recessed for flush mounting
• Driver mounting holes affixed with t-nuts for easy driver mounting
• All panels heavily damped using a 3mm bitumen-polymer layer
• Packed and shipped in dismantled form

Note: We do not finish the enclosure.
