Box build for Fi Bl 12

[Miles]

This is just a quick box i made this afternoon to fit behind the seats of a mid 90's single cab Chevy 1500. The box is 2.0 cubes with 25 sq in of port tuned to 32 hz. It will be powered with about 750 watts, so we'll see if he needs a bigger amp or not, but this should be a pretty efficient box for his needs. "Terminals" are 2 5/16" bolts through the wood. Needed to have the spacer ring to get more mounting depth for the sub to fit. Here's a couple of pictures of it finished.

Box looks good...

i thought there was a huge gap there below the port... but it looks like its only a shadow...

as far as using the bolts... try using T-tuns... my opinion... they are easier to use... and they dont come loose..

That's what i'm thinking is going to happen. However, it's 5 years old and soft as hell, so i think 750 will be a decent amount of power for it. I'll try to talk him into a new SSD if this sub ever gives out, but the abuse i've seen this sub take (i had it for the first 3 years of it's life, and trust me, it didn't have an easy life. Haha.) i think it will hold out for a little while longer.

And how would i attach the speaker wire to a t nut? That will be the purpose of the dual nuts on each bolt (tighten down the first one really good, then put the ring on, then the second nut, and tighten the 2 nuts together.).

Yeah, it's just a shadow. Haha. The wood maybe sticks out 1/16", but how the sub hit it makes it look like a big gap or a big overhang. For only using a jig saw, i think it turned out pretty well.
