What do you think about the rectangle box idea?

Joe X Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 The best thing that you could do is take the design that was given to you with the four subs firing forward, just making the internal volume 2 cubic feet, if you want to do what you just said here's how: DIMENSIONS AS SEEN FROM THE TOP!! Enclosure Specifications: Vgross = 2.073 ft^3 Subwoofer Mounting = Flush Mounted External Height = 23 in External Width = 23 in External Depth = 10 in Cut List: * All Dimensions in Inches. * Wood Thickness is 3/4 for all Parts. External Enclosure Parts: 2 x Front & Back (3 parts) = 23 x 23 Left & Right Sides = 7 3/4 x 21 1/2 Top & Bottom = 23 x 7 3/4 I case you missed it I already gave you that design, it's no good for trunk type of vehicles. I would use 2 of them in a ported box to get just as loud or better yet 2 12" or a single 15" all are good options. The V design will work well but yes it will take some effort to build.

Joe X Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 It just keep flexing the trunk lid, the energy is translated into rattling and there is not much of a point on doing that but I guess you can always try... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it put out any SPL at all? I mean I just want to hit around a 120db on demand. Will it at least sound good?

412 CVX Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 just go with the above suggested design. the one with the V shape. don't do anything where the subs are upward facing, because that makes the trunk lid rattle and flex, rather than the sound being transferred into the cabin of the car. the only other option i forsee here is possibly a 4th order. something like this But on a litte bit smaller scale. i'd think a 4th order would be a little louder than sealed too. shoot me a PM if you would like me to design you something like this. Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.

No one will advise you to do that box, wil it sound good to you?? well who knows, if you put 2 of those subs on a ported box will sound AS LOUD as 4 in a sealed. That would sound to me as a good deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
