basshead8569 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Ok so this is the way it assembles and is actually your dimensions: The center of the subs are 11 3/4",8" from the external edges. Likewise the Ports are 3 1/8",4". The placement of the ports is important since the ports should not be too near from each other and must not be placed where can weaken the baffle. Let me know any questions or comments you may have. I noticed that you have 2 pieces of board in the front where the subs go. I heard from different people different opinions on that. Some say it is a good thing. Some say it is a bad thing. What is your opinion on it?

What is your opinion on it? lmao its never a bad thing to have a double front baffle its not allways needed but NEVER BAD lmao the people you talk to are funny as hell also on that box it would be louder with no divider all one box just fyi Have you ever had your woofers blown?

Joe X Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Yes, there are no negative side effects on a doble layered baffle except cut both layers, in turn you get less potential resonance, less power loss and increased sound quality by moderate margins. Not strictly necessary but recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I was thinking that I would cut the middle out of that divider. Thinking maybe extra box support??? If I am wrong correct me. Cause I am building a box when I come back from UP michigan. So all the advice will be nice.

ALPINE408 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 well there idiots then and don't lisen to anything eles they have to say about audio cause there talking out there ass like the double front plate bracing is alllways good as long as you keep the displacment as low as you can (as in the less space you take up in the box with bracing but still bracing it the better) Have you ever had your woofers blown?

So all the advice will be nice. The divider doubles as bracing, usually is better to cut circles in it. BUT since you are running separate amplifiers the divider is highly recommended since the least mismatch on the gain of the amps will translate in acoustic load and power loss.

ALPINE408 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 oh i didnt know 2 separte amps ya if you dont know how line/gain match amps the keep the chamber box Have you ever had your woofers blown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshead8569 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I might go with a rockford forgate amp. Think the guy told me it does 1500 of constant power???? Thinking maybe getting 2 of those. But, yea think I should of thought about it before I said it. Made me look dumb. Thanks for the advice.
