The spec you have may be great.

Someone already asked - how much port area does the current box have?

Need something other than liquidnails. It is strong but does not soak into the wood like titebond.

PM me the outer dimensions of your box and I will see what I can come up with.

Current system:

1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s

Previous systems:

2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz.

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

I have a 15" SMD on a SAZ3500D in a 4 cu. ft. box 3.5net after port tuned to 29htz.. I like it, but I need to make another stronger box with more, stronger screws and stronger caulk, so I was wondering if anybody has or had a better formula for a SMD. I only have about 4 cubes net. It is a daily, but I obliviously don't mind the banging!

(I did try to search before I made this post, no luck) THANK YALL!!! :popcorn:

for only 15 bucks nd acouple of simple questions ray can give you a nice box design :drinks:

Torres? Wow, that's not as much as I thought it would be! Thank you

I got a comment on my youtube saying I should have 17-20in of port per cubic ft..and I have about 10... The port would have to be a "S" curve . Is that o.k.?

I can't put a pic up cause my p.c. will only save the page as a "text document"

What kind of glue did you use to glue the box together?
I think Liquid Nails or something crazy that bonds anything to anything, I do rember spending like an hour looking at the different kinds of stuff!

i started using locktite adhesive its 2x the price of liquid nails but doesnt dryout and crack under pressure the loctite adhesive feels as if it never drys.. doesnt seperate nor crack.. love this stuff

Chrishova if you need any assistance on a box design and/or building of the box I can help.

Without my woodhsop its been tricky building boxes but I have come out with a few good boxes here in Virginia and I generally charge pizza and a beer.

Let me know
