  4. Enclosure Building Tips...?

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    Posted

    if your not doing anything serious they make a prefab to fit in there perfect

    Yeah, but I don't have the money for one... All the materials for this box I already had laying around my parents basement... The cheapest one I found was this one, but I don't have an extra $300 + Shipping laying around... I also saw one somewhere that was like $1,200, that's just ridiculous.

  5. Enclosure Building Tips...?

    Posted · Edited by TritonBoulder47

    I'm currently working on a custom enclosure for my Avalanche... It's going to replace my midgate and hold my 2 Kicker COMP VR 12's... I have all the pieces cut out and hopefully I'll get to complete construction this weekend...

    Just wondering if there are any tips ya'll have for the construction... The enclosure is made of all 3/4 MDF, the "face" of the box is 2 pieces of MDF cut to the shape of my midgate opening and they need to be mated together. Plus I have two separate cabinets (one for each sub) to attach to the rear of the face. This will be a sealed box, so any tips ya'll have on sealing would also be appreciated.

    I think I'm going to attach the cabinet pieces to the second "face" piece, they attach the two "face" pieces together.

    And I have build enclosures before, but they were far from professional... They workrd for what I needed them for, but could have been better...

    Here's the last one I built... It was for my '95 Tahoe... It was crude, but effective...

    Thanks in advance for any and all help guys & gals...

    Totally missed this topic... LoL My bad...

    My name is Tim, from Tunkhannock PA (NEPA, in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Area)

    I came across SMD while looking for ideas fro my Avalanche when I cam across the EXT he did... After that I was hooked... Especially when I saw my first http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/hairtrick.gif

    I've had a stereo in every vehicle I've owned...

    My first vehicle was a 1985 Dodge Omni running 2 Kenwood 10's in a ported kenwood box. No pic... I wish I did, it was a mad hooptie... LoL

    Next was a 1986 Mercury Cougar, started with the 10's from my first car, then added 2 JBL 12's in a bandpass box and 2 MTX 15's in a sealed box. While I have the cougar, I had a winter car. And i dropped my 2 JBL's in that in a "portable" set-up...

    I got rid of those and got my first truck. 1991 Chevy Silverado Z71. I custom made a box and fit one of the MTX 15's behind the seat. Pretty tight fit for a regular cab... LOL

    Next came my 1995 Chevy Tahoe... I did some serious custom work on this, including a complete Z71 suspension upgrade (Which they didn't make for Tahoe's back then...) That had 2 Kicker COMP VR12's on a custom sealed box...

    LOL. I saw some a while ago and thought, "they can't be that far away." Well a quarter mile later I finally seen the car. It was the day and I had to look to the other side of the road to see at all. Way to bright.

    Ah I see... It all depends on quality, placement, and quantity... LoL The only LED's I have are a pair of very small ones between my tailgate and bumper, and a large set behind my grill...

    Here's my Zeus... He's a mix breed... The lady I got him from said that his mom is a Lab/Boxer mix, and his dad was a Coon Hound... Ya can't really tell from the pics, but he has some beautiful brindle on him, white paws, white tipped tail and a white chest... He was the chubbiest pup in the litter with the bigest paws, which is the reason I got him... I've wanted another big dog for the longest time...

    This is the day we picked him up, riding shotgun with my g/f in my Av...
