fecupe2001 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Is it a dumb question? maybe, are you dumb for asking it?? NOT AT ALL!!! That´s why forums exist, so you can get as much help as you get before doing something wrong; About the question, boxes don´t have to be exact to the manual, depends on a lot of factors, i haven´t look at the recommended box on a manual for a few years now lol, so don´t worry about that. P.S: 2.25 and 2.225 it´s the same thing, you are not gonna harm anything, or even hear a difference between each other, so don´t worry that much mate Quote I´m the SPL Gains topic creator!! wanna get louder?? check this: SPL Gains.

SlamminBeats Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 .005 of a difference in air space for that system will not make a difference, so you should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for starters make your own thread so that more people will see it, on that thread you need to include certain info. sub displacement? port or no port? if ported where do you want it tuned at? spl or sq build? im guessing spl net volume needed per sub? dimensions of the trunk?

I had a 12" Kicker CVX several years ago and that also called for a 2.25 cu ft enclosure for their "Deep Bass/SPL" box. Like Joe said, don't forget to figure in the correct size port you'll need, plus the displacement of the sub when figuring in the port. Pretty sure it was over 3 cubes when all this was figured in, unfortunately I don't keep old specs for boxes I build.
