Speaker box project-ideas

Idea is that i do a stealth custom-made speaker box with three speakers, receiver and maybe car radio. Two of the speakers should be middle-low freq. on the top and a sub at the bottom. The dimensions would be around cca.45x35x90 cm depends what speaker size do stores have...Bigger speaker the better :D I think that 125w cfl dual+ maybe 2 or 3 23W cfls would do the trick... Or 200w cfl dual...I dont know yet... The only hps i could think of is 70w...Hps/mh its just not for that kind of box :) For ventilation i will add two 120mm computer fans (1000 rpm 69m3/h 13 dB/A) and later one 220mm fan to supply the crop with air :) I didnt have cfls before so i wonder if cfls are much cooler that hps (hps is hot like hell). I was planing to get out cca. 20 000 lumens from cfls with mixed spectrum light. I think that idea is stealthy enough to try. After all i can always listen to music :D Please give me some ideas before I order this box :) Ohh and...For growing medium i have choosen soil 0r maybe one grow coco in large pot over the whole area :)

Do you have intakes planned? Depending on size of box and static pressure you might be able to use one fan for exhaust. Remember if your intake is passive you will need it to be double your exhaust. Do you have plans for a filter for smell?

Will the lights be hard mounted or adjustable? Do you want some stretch? If not how about a shelf system. What strains and system do you plan on running?

I was planing to put it passive hole at the bottom...Yes, I will use DIY thread to do the filters. Why is that for doubling exhaust? I think the less air is vented inside the better is reach that odor is getting out just thrugh exhaust fans. I didnt think of that yet, but if the financal sources will hold i think that moving system is the option. Yes I want plants to be over the whole box. Shelf system is a good idea but i am a little bit worried because at the begining of grow the box will be so small and i dont know if i could cool it down and the weight of soil will be too much for a shelf. This is a very good ventilation here but i cant afford almost any noise...So for good ventilation is noise needed...or maybe i could go with 150w mh/hps with some kind of cool tube :D Hmm still another issue. I want to get exhaust ventilation directly outside the box...but it cant be seen from the outside...For how much does air filters reduces air flow through vent? I was thinking to put some fake curved bass tubes on the top of the box so the hot air could leak outside... I forgot...I will separate the grow area from ventilation area at the top with putting the light on some shelf...ANd then air will be vented th the top of the box and then outside...White widow is 70% choosen strain...The only and the best option is that i plant 2-3 plants in grow box and i top them asap.
