C.Sanchez.A Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) I'm at it again, but this time I'm making up my mind. I'm building a box for 2 DC Audio XL 12'' running off a AQ2200 each. It's going in a '94 Mazda B3000 ext. cab (Link To Build). I was going to go with a complex box (Figure 1), but decided to go with something a little bit easier to make (Figure 2 & Figure 2.1). What do you guys think?

fecupe2001 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I really like the port area, but damn, that box ended up been small doesn´t it? maybe i would ditch the second baffle, that way, you can gain a lot of internal space and just use a couple of good old threaded rods to brace that shit out, i´m telling you this because if you are tuning it @ 36 hz then you are looking to play some nice lows wich are a little bit too difficult with only 1.5 cubic feet per sub hommie, i do think the box should work nice but it can work even better if it´s bigger, just my opinion Quote I´m the SPL Gains topic creator!! wanna get louder?? check this: SPL Gains.

As for making the box bigger I have more room to make the box taller. This is where my problem is I can't make up my mind. Grrrr.
