rboudreaux77 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 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. Cool thanks. I tried downloading the torres one from the forum but i don't know wtf happened lol ill have to try again.

rboudreaux77 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 What is your distance from floor to window line? Ok from where I want to start the box to give me room for the amps under it is around 25 inches. So the box you suggested was 26" high so that will be good Quote http://www.dcsoundlab.com/ 2008 Chevy Impala (Daily Driver) Pioneer touchscreen w/navi 1 DC XL 15" (around 4cuft ported box) 1 AQ2200 1 AQ90x4 Memphis MClass 6.5s (front doors) Memphis MClass 6x9s (rear deck) stock alt & front batt; 1 Red top in the trunk 139.2db sealed (on my old JL1000/1) 140.0db outlaw (on my old JL1000/1) 1992 Chevy S-10 Ext cab.

rboudreaux77 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 depending on the size of ur amps & the depth of ur box, id rather put the amps on top of the box so they can stay cool... They wont vibrate to much and mess up the amps being on the box? I heard this before thats why I was trying not to put them on top. I did think of it though for cooling. Maybe I can make some kind of floating rack over the box Quote http://www.dcsoundlab.com/ 2008 Chevy Impala (Daily Driver) Pioneer touchscreen w/navi 1 DC XL 15" (around 4cuft ported box) 1 AQ2200 1 AQ90x4 Memphis MClass 6.5s (front doors) Memphis MClass 6x9s (rear deck) stock alt & front batt; 1 Red top in the trunk 139.2db sealed (on my old JL1000/1) 140.0db outlaw (on my old JL1000/1) 1992 Chevy S-10 Ext cab.

RAM_Designs Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) I want to do a double baffle but im not sure yet. Ill see when I get there I doubt you'll have the space to. A double baffle will kill a lot of box volume. Just mount some 1.5" wide MDF rings behind the sub cutouts so you have a beefed up area to screw into.
