Another Update:
Enclosures are done and the amp rack has begun. The Amp Rack should be pretty damn cool, I've already seen the brackets Tom designed for it and I love the idea! Mike started working on the placement of the ZR 6.5" Woofers in the front doors as well (Pictured below).

Are the amps going in at angles in the cut cement forms. Or slid in the slots horizontal?

The amps are being slid into the slots at angles toward the outside (so it will look like a "V" row of amps). Tom designed brushed aluminum brackets that the amps will rest on that look very cool and "curvy" to match the rest of the design. He was supposed to work on it today and tomorrow but we had two big clients come in and need work done ASAP so I am bumped till next week. I'll post pics as it progresses!

I am interested how you are going to hide the wires. It's a cool concept. Hope it pans out. Will tube be black suede or acrylic.

The back side of the amps are being slid into the tubes so the wiring will all run down the tube (and there will be an end cap on it). The tube will be covered in Suede and there will be LED lighting under the amp rack. We already have a custom curved piece of plexi made to go over the entire thing that will have brushed aluminum strips running down the sides to match the enclosures.
