First off I would like to start by saying I know nothing about designing a box,I am however a carpenter so the actual building should be simple for me. I have an 86 s10 that I started working on about a year ago I have bean buying and storeing my system in a closet for about 8 months and it is now time to start building the intirior.I need some help designing an enclosure for four RE sex10d4's in a blow through set up. I want to be able to listen to a wide range of music and still be able to hit the lows pretty good. I have drawn up a few diagrams for reference and measurements. I have never built a systm or truck of this magnatude before I literaly have striped it down to nothing and started over again this is a project I wanted to do for nearly 15 years and sence I am not getting any younger I figured I would start now. I realy need some help from someone who has the know how and doesnt mind helping me reach my goal.OK so I dont know how to put the paint files I have on this forum. I basicly want to put two subs on each side two deep and port this iether in the center or each side. I have 55" from side to side in the bed and 21" from bed and cab wall till the wheel wells and they both are 8" in if anyone can help me with this and you need more info just let me know

I am sorry shouldve said were I am from I am in melbourne florida. I have installed plenty of systems as a youngster but never built anything special so I figured I would give it a shot. I am working on a band pass design with a friend of mine and we are both new at this so things are going pretty slow. I basicly have 39" wide by 14" tall to work with in the bed. I havent cut anything as far as the hole in the truck becouse I need to figure out the box first. I am shooting for a frequency range of 35-80 hrtz my mids will pick up from there.I am not looking for extreme spl I am more interested in sound quality. I chose the RE sex10d4 becouse they are actualy pretty good subs for the money. I chose to use four of them becouse it is cooler than saying I got two tens and they should get much louder than two. I am going to power them with two brutus 1200.1 at 1ohm. I do plan to upgrade to two xtx3000.1's in the future. I am trying to hold off for RE's new xxx mids they are supposed to be out soon and from what I hear they will be pretty nice. So with all of that said if one of you audiophiles have experience with bandpass boxes and you have the time I would like to know what you would do with this. I can get you any other information you may nead just ask for what you nead.

OK so craig at RE has come up with some numbers to help me in building the box for my blow through. I am still sitting here in a stupor trying to make sence of this and it seems the more I read about it the more confused I get. The design is a 4th Order Symmetric Bandpass Box with four sex10d4's powered by two seperate amps. Can someone help me translate this info into an enclosure I think if I could see a diagram of one like what I am trying to build that would help alot. How do I post a pdf file and also a file from paint? I have some simple diagrams drawn up as to how I want to build this thing and also the pdf file is wahat craig sent to me with all the peramiters for the box he even sent me some type of graph.
