need suggestions with a box


Recommended Posts

Trying to figure out my box for the 2 XL15s I want to put in my S10 and I can't get the port tuned to what I want but still have enough sqin of port. Its going in my extended cab and from wall to wall I have 48" from roof to floor I have 36" and from seats to rear I have 16". I don't want a wall so im trying not to use all 36". I wanted to do the box like the pic in my other thread I made yesterday. Subs forward and port up with the port along the rear window on the back of the box. I was trying to tune it somewhere bebetween 30Hz and 37Hz. Im gonna have the DC 5k on them if that matters. Someone please help me!

If you pull the 3rd seat and trim the plastic some you can go 50.5 wide. Im putting 2 Level 4 15's in my S10 just alittle over window line.

I got a 92 so I got 2 flip out back seats really. 1 is already out because I had my extra battery in its spot b4 and I wanted to use it to put my 2 extra batteries in that spot again. Either way I think I got enough airspace I just can't figure out the port. Thats what I need help with.

Alittle on the small side for my liking but it should get you started. Subs forward port along back window. :popcorn:

Thanks. Where does everyone get the program like that? You have to buy it or is it free?

Im at work and my truck is at home right now so I don't know exactly but I wanna do a false floor to put my amps under then the box on top so im pretty sure its gonna cover some of the window. But thanks for the design. What program does the 3D of the box? And where do you get that from?

For box calculators, most people use Torres' calculator, which you can download in the sticky in the subs/boxes section here on the forum. Otherwise I like WinISD Beta, you can find it by googling it.

For the modeling program it's google sketchup, just search sketchup in google and you'll find it.
